No wayyyyyyy!!!!!
How have I booked 5 events with 2 more in the works in the last 2 days?????? 😭😭😭
You guys!
I'd be lying if I said it wasn't a really, really, really hard winter ((seasonal depression aside)!!! Long winter and honestly I've had to pivot A LOT to make ends meet! You all have been so gracious and continue to come through the doors, buy merch and gift cards and book events which has kept us going. ( This isn't a sympathy post.This is a reality post!!!!!)
But even with all your support, it has been a struggle, even after 11 years in business!!! I question my ability to do thia more often than I would like to admit
These last couple days have been a sign for me to push a little harder, dry those "behind-the-scene-tears", figure it out.
Its a reminder that my community is behind me, people I dont personally know are rooting for me, local businesses I work with are patient with me, and maybe, just maybe, I got this!
When I say "you dont know what this means to me" or "you keep me going" or "you're keeping me in business" "every event booking helps" I MEAN IT ....
You aren't helping me buy another vacation home, or another lavish trip around the world, or fund my 6th pair of red bottoms shoes....
This week, Im trying to pay my daughter's AAU dues, my car payment, restaurant food bill, and make payroll
AND THAT IS THE GODS HONEST TRUTH AND REALITY OF SMALL BUSINESS, (OR AT LEAST MINE).
So "thank you" means....
FOR (literally) HELPING ME SURVIVE!!!!!!!!
