glacier_kittyYay, we have curtains at work again!
They're covering up an ugly corner. The bookstore just wasn't the same without curtains (I have my cat curtain from the other building hanging on a shelf thing, but it still wasn't quite the same), so I was very glad when a volunteer put those up haha
Here's me and Jane (a volunteer) in front of them
The bookstore was indeed busy when I got there yesterday! (I could have done without the screaming kids though. D:) There was a lull and then in the last hour it got busy again. I heard a customer say "I love this place!" I really missed that the move has been hard on customers too! We made $700 something, not too bad, with most things being 50% off. Today was pretty busy too, yay! Hopefully we've turned a corner and get customer satisfaction again lol (we're taking donations again next Saturday, so that should help too!) I'm not sure how Bill and I survived the bleak summer, both of us were on the edge of quitting! Guess we're stubborn haha
Suddenly, after 2 or 3 years, Ryan is making fancy desserts again! He just made this cake:
Not being able to go to a sleepover with my brother and our mutual friend Travis when we were kids..I was too young to understand the reason why (I assume it's not appropriate??)
