Well we made it through Valentine’s Day successfully.  I was ver cautious this year since I lost so much money last year.  We actually made money…not a lot but I don’t care it’s better than loosing money.

We are going to be moving our shop this week to our new location 839 E. Mission Rd.  We will be on a busier street, I will have parking and the best part NO stairs.  Our current shop has the workshop downstairs so spend a lot of time going up and down.  It is just killing my legs I can’t wait to be all on one level.  The new shop also has a bigger area to meet with brides.  I’ve always wanted a brides room and can’t wait to finish decorating and setting it up.  This room will give brides the opportunity to see all of my rental items and I can kind of group things together on a table so that they can get a sense of what their centerpieces will look like.  Our scheduled opening date is March 4th.  I’m just going to shut down both stores (I’ll still take phone & internet orders) I just won’t have the store itself open.  That would be to hard with 1/2 of things at one store and the other 1/2 at the other store.

I delivered a huge anniversary/get well vase to the hospital this week.  As an added bonus I e-mailed a picture of it to the couples daughter that ordered from back in NH.  She loved the idea of getting a picture and was going to forward it onto her siblings that made the purchase with her so they could see what they bought their parents.  I love the idea of being able to send you a picture of what I sent out.  I know it’s hard send things far away and hoping that there going to look good so I will try and do that more and see if it catchs on with customers.  Here is a picture of the vase that I sent out.  It ended up weighing around 15-20 lb.

The service was for a young man that my daughter went to school with.  Very sad (this is the hard part about being a florist)
