I am writing this from my new "Happy Place," Coco's Sweet Shop. I spent most of the day up here yesterday too. Organizing things, making calls, placing orders. Answering the phone: Coco's Sweet Shop. Not going to lie, that was awesome. I love it up here. Even in the huge mess it is right now. I have friends come in and visit. It is becoming exactly what I dreamed. A calming, fun place to be. Still so much to do. Need Coach to get back from vacation and grab his paint cans. So much to still get done.
I am not happy with the shelves I have. Need to make a run to Ikea. That will probably be Monday. Hubby wants me to go to an auction on Sunday. He thinks I will find some things I need there. Never know. It is possible. He has his eye on a Ford Escape he thinks I need to haul things. Maybe if it goes cheap. I do not see that happening. Going to be a huge auction! Most importantly, if I go I might be able to hold Hubby back from buying more junk. All that is, is money in Tru Stories pocket for her auction when we are gone.
I am still looking for a company for water supply. Need to call Culligan today. I don't drink this water, I sure won't expect customers to. My final large expense is an upright cooler for beverages. Ugh!! This is a very expensive item. Been looking for one on sale for a long time. Not happening. Going to need to bite the bullet and go for it.
Ordered my shirts the other day. That was exciting. Getting polos, t-shirts, and aprons for employees to wear. Eventually, I want shirts to sell.
Mrs. you will be happy to know I have asked Warhol to paint a sign with the Ronald Reagan quote on it. That is going to be one of my inspirational quotes. Remind me what Coco's is to me.
The last two days when I left home I said, going to work. Makes me giggle. Really this does not feel like work. I hope it never does! I do need to get some things done. Have a great week-end. Opening day is getting closer!!!

I think an auction is a perfect place to search. You never know what treasures are out there. We are anxiously awaiting Opening Day at Coco's, and I'm honored you are using that quote in your shop. It felt right when I found it, and I hope it provides endless inspiration for you and your customers!
