Sunny, breezy, and warm today with highs in the low 70’s.

A slow day at the store. I processed some books from the back and a couple of small donations that came in. Otherwise, not much to report on.

Sunny and warm today with highs in the low 70’s and a nice breeze. We started out in the upper 40’s over night.

A good couple of days at the store. Almost $100.00 yesterday and almost $200.00. A couple of nice donations came in to work on as well.

A slow day with customers and sales but a busy day for Joyce and me. I processed three different donations and helped Joyce change the window. I cleared off the front table so we could change it to go with the window which is Halloween. While I finished up shelving books she put out more decorations in the store.

Partly sunny until this afternoon then clouds and rain showers moved in. A steady light rain has been falling since mid-afternoon.

I went to the gym early then back home to shower and go to my six month dentist check up appointment with the dentist. Back home to fix some lunch then off to Donna’s for afternoon crafting. We had four today.

Then I stayed to have dinner with Donna and visit with the dogs.

Partly sunny and warm today with highs in the low 70’s. We had some heavy rain last night bringing around two and half inches. This afternoon we had a brief shower in town then the sun came back out. May get more tonight.

Yesterday and today was rather slow at the store with customers but with a couple of big sales both days we manged over $100.00 each day. I worked on processing stuff from the back and a couple of small donations that came in.

Mostly cloudy, warm, and humid today with highs in the low 70’s. We’ve had a couple of on and off showers which we desperately need. We have had no rain the month of September.

An interesting day at the store. Not a lot of customers but those that did come in made big purchases to put us well over the $100.00 mark. I worked on processing some stuff from the back and held down the store by myself this afternoon so Joyce could go to a meeting.

I left for Winston around 9:15 this morning for an appointment. Finished up with that, ran a quick errand then headed back up the mountain.

After I fixed some lunch I headed over to Donna’s for crafting afternoon. We had four today. Worked on various seasonal projects. Went in to play with the dogs before heading back home.

We’ve had two awesome days at the store for our whole store half price sale. Yesterday we made over $500.00. Today we did well over $600.00. Today was also our fall heritage festival which brought lots of folks into town. We were knee deep in people most of the day.

Frances and Al arrived in town mid-morning. They ate lunch and walked around town while I worked. We we to eat at Mexican restaurant for dinner then drove out to an Amish ice cream store for dessert.

Mostly sunny and warm today with highs in the mid to upper 70’s and breezy.

A slow day with customers but a busy day behind the scenes. I processed books and organized shelves getting ready for our big half price sale this weekend. We almost did $100.00 in sales.
