Subject: RE: BS: Sitting At The Kitchen Table
Just put the coffee on, its quiet here at the table this morning,Mind you I guess your still all asleep in the USA, so I may ramble on my own.For those who do not know Billy and I own a Beauty Salon and Day Spa in a seaside resort in the East of England.I always say I love what I do, that is , I love doing treatments, aromatherapy, holistic treatments etc. what I hate is the administration and running the business. We have a manager to do all that, but guess what, this morning at 7 she phones me with a bad cold, she could "struggle" in but !!!!!
So in I came at 7.30, spent the last 90 minutes phoning clients and re scheduling and trying to cover with other therapists who were already heavily booked today.
The day we were due to leave for Sidmouth last month, she phoned to say the electrics had fused, she had plugged in the kettle empty of water, fused everything in the staff room, so plugged it in in reception.....you guessed. Biily spent all morning sorting things out , we left a day late.I had a big birthday in June my 60th and was asked at the party when I would retire? I laughed and said no way, reading about Jerry's walks and all the great things you all get up to now I am not so sure!
coffee is good, may have a danish.
