We recently closed our shop after 3 years because of the economy and lots of shops have had to make changes. Many shops here are open limited days and do quite well. You make it on your loyal,repeat customers and they will come whatever days you are open. Good luck!

I found ...I love these little peaks back in time. <br /><br />I found a book on housewifery from the 1930s last year that said much the same thing. It went on to point out that women work from early morning to late at night, 24/7 with no holidays or weekends off. And often they risk their health to accomplish everything too.steelkittenhttp://steelkitten.typepad.com/steel_kitten/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30438487.post-31226642035395333222010-02-15T23:11:11.371+00:002010-02-15T23:11:11.371+00:00It seems like yesterday Niki!!!!
