Today is a very sad day as a small business owner. I've thought hard over the past few days how I was going to do this. So I decided 100% honesty was my only real choice.
My shop served it's last day open this past Saturday.
It won't be re-opening. We are officially closed.
I thought long and hard about what I'd say. How I'd apologize. How much info was too little or too much.
But the truth is/ main reason , health issues that are uncontrollable have made it impossible for me to further run my storefront. Many of my customers/consignors knew what I was going through. Many, did not, as I continued through much of it with a smile. Continually helping who I could and doing what I loved to do. Not knowing if within the next minute I'd be able to. I pushed on. Determined. To make some kind of difference.
I will be clearing out my store over the next 2 weeks. Contacting the people I need to pick items up and have last checks ready by the 1st.
This choice seems abrupt, but was thought about long and hard.
Thank you to those who DID support my small business. Thank you to those who know my fight with these health issues. Thank you to those who came in at the exact right time to just give me a hug, who checked on me at work, who cried with me, who were angry with me when I was angry and those who were happy when great things happened.
I am saddened to have to close. I don't see this as a failure. .. A wise woman once told me " Baby girl, you only fail, if you don't try, now it's time for a new journey, one where YOU get to be healthy, and move forward. A new path, a journey. "
Thank you mom. ♡
And to everyone else, please wish me luck on this new path. Life can be a terrifying thing. And I hope I get to enjoy a long beautiful one with my amazing family . Only positivity from here :)
I apologize for any inconvenience, now it's time to figure this all out. And that's exactly what I plan to do. :)
