I just did not want to get out of bed today. My body aches, my feet and legs are killing me and I am so tired! The show was only until 2 today, which was nice! I placed my order with K & Company today. I LOVE the new Girl Scout stuff! I was a Girl Scout for 7 years, so I am going to need all of it! I also placed my order with Queen & Co. I LOVE their new stuff! I was so out of it all day today. We took a cab to the convention center and when I went to pay the driver I hit my head. There was this stupid metal box in-between the two seats in the back on the ceiling and I slammed right into it. I swear I saw stars for a minute, or so. I have felt out of it since than. All day I felt like I was walking on a cloud and I’m here, but not really. Does that make any sense? Or do I just sound totally KRAZY!? LOL! So we think I might have a concussion. I just don't get it, why do I have such bad luck? I'm a good person, really I am! After the show we came back to the room and I fell asleep for a few hours. About 6:00 we went to eat dinner at a place called Tiffy's. It had good reviews but it wasn't that great. I feel sick to my stomach now. I'm now back, in the room. I just finished packing pretty much everything. Now, I'm lying in bed ready to go to sleep.
I am not looking forward to spending all day flying tomorrow. My dad said it is suppose to snow tomorrow, not looking forward to that. I really hope it doesn't delay our flight. I just want to go home and lay in my own bed and rest (those pillows are like sand bags). That’s why I closed the store until the 3rd, so I would get a chance to recoup from this week. I had fun, but to be honest I couldn't be more glad the shows over! I do love these shows but they are really draining. I LOVE meeting all these great people and seeing all of the new product, but the day does not end for me once the show is over. I get to stay up till the wee hours of the morning looking over catalogs and filling out order forms, only to have to wake up at 8 am and do it all over again.
It's so difficult buying for the store. There’s so much stuff that my customers ask for, but I just don't have the customer base yet to bring them everything they want. Hopefully one day that won't be an issue! I did buy TONS of new stuff and am not really looking forward to March; most of it will be arriving around that time, so major overload for me! School started this week, so I missed the first two classes. Monday or Tuesday, I can't remember which day I start class again. I decided to take only one class this semester; full time is just too much with the store. I really hate to do just one class a semester since I’m so close to being done but the store keeps growing, and me being the only employee it’s really hard for me. I hope that everyone is happy with what I've ordered. I really wanted to bring to the store Daisy D’s and Scenic Route, but right now I can't. I do have their catalogs and order forms and depending on how the store goes I hope to be able to bring them to you in the near future! Thank you all for your continued support!
Yeah!! katies’s coming home
