As you may or may not know, opening up a business with my son did not work out so basically I have been running the thrift store pretty much 100% on my own the entire time. While I don't regret for one minute opening up our cute little neighborhood shop, I'd be lying if I said it has been easy. It has caused much stress and dissension between my son and I and also between my husband and I. Yep, it's been a little frustrating to say the least.
I love my little store and the friends and customers I've made have been remarkable but I've felt for quite sometime now that a very important part of my life has been missing. I knew exactly what it was.
So, tomorrow I start back at my old job, doing what I love, and spending time once again with the coworkers and patients that I have missed dearly.
Luckily, my daughter is available this week to cover for me at the store while I work 3 days to get reoriented. In the future, I will more than likely work one day a week or even just one day a pay period.

Life is meaningful when you can do something you love.
I wish you all the best, Linda. Life is too short to not be happy in all we do! Hope to see you blogging more! :)
