Wow! Again??

Quick update - Mitch and I closed the store at the end of June. I can't say it was a decision we made easily, but it was such a good decision. It was sucking wind and closing it helped open the door and space for us to focus on things more productive. Turns out - we were right. We're seriously growing with our financial services work and nothing makes us happier than being able to help people plan for their futures! Busier than ever, a VERY different kind of busy, but super busy still. Not a stay-up-til-2am-schlepping-tables-and-antiques-around-back-breaking sort of busy, but like having to remember to eat because you've gone from one appointment to the next and getting home at night exhausted feeling great about what you've done in the world good kind of busy.  We have SO many crazy success stories and I feel like we're in the spot we're supposed to be!  Annnnd - we also now have more time to actually SEE some people now that we're not tied to our store 24/7. Hooray!

Last week we sold the house in North Richland Hills. We are closed and wipe the dust off our hands, D-O-N-E. Fini! Phew!

My sweet cousin, Carley, got married and once again, I was able to be a small part of her day. It was such an honor and pleasure to marry her to the man who absolutely deserves to walk with her through life. I can't describe the honor it is getting to officiate for people I love. Congrats Jacob and Carley and sweet Annalee. You are all amazing.

I ran into a woman in the restroom nursing her beautiful baby girl today. She was very apologetic (what? to me???) for being in my way, and it reminded me of the two babies I had the delight of raising. Not babies anymore definitely. But, I can honestly say, even though I was young and dumb, I truly enjoyed every single second and stage in their lives. Still do! Such a beautiful reminder.  

Tread lightly, don't sweat the small stuff, assume the best in others, be uplifting and you just might be the sunshine someone needed in their day.  You have your happiness to live for.
