The Monday Blues

Monday's are rough.  Many businesses are closed downtown on Monday.  People are not used to shopping on Monday.  That makes Monday a long day for me.  I am usually open 8-2.  Good time for me to get things done.  Place orders, pay bills, all the fun stuff.  There are usually just a few people in.  I made the decision last week to start closing at 1:00.  Does not make sense to stay open later.  Gives me time to get home and relax.  Yesterday, on my day off, I worked 5 hours.  Cleaning up and reorganizing the back room. 
It is almost time to close.  There have been two sets of people into the store.  Only one made a purchase.  Panic starts to set in.  I think, I better stop ordering things.  When I go out of business I do not want to have so much to pay off.  (This could be attributed to several negative people in my life.)  I try to take a deep breath and relax.  Remind myself that I am not going to get rich or go broke in one day.  Even a slow week.  This is going to take a longer commitment.  I need to keep moving forward.  Listen to ideas.  Think of ways to draw people into the store.
Harvest Days is only 11 days away.  I have high hopes for a crazy, busy week-end.  Hoping to make enough to feel very hopeful going into Halloween and Christmas. 
Happy Thoughts, going to go to my Happy, Happy Place!!
