[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] I don’t particularly like the work associated with decorating. However, through my years at my Salon and since the day I owned a home, I always seem to go over and above when it came to Holiday decorations.   [/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”14px”][vc_column_text] I would have to say initially, I felt obligated as a Business owner […]

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] This past week I posted a one(1) line statement on Facebook. “WHAT HAPPENED TO RESPECT?” The comments posted solidified my point. Many of them went directly to politics, criticizing and accusing our President of causing the lack of respect in our Country. The post was NOT at all politically motivated. Let me share a

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]In March of this year when our sales dropped 90% I would never have imagined the challenges of COVID would still be present 7 months later. After 30+ years of owning my own Business, I’m aware of everyday challenges and hitting them head on. However, there is no Business class, there is no Book which

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] I don’t know why I write about the topics I do. It’s whatever hit’s me at the moment I’m ready to write. Sometimes an idea might come the week before, mainly because of what I’ve seen on Social Media(SM). [/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”14px”][vc_column_text] Lordy be!

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] One of the things I like about being my own boss, is being the final decision maker in the products which I bring into my venue. As a former Salon owner and still a licensed Nail Technician, I understand the challenges we face within our Industry. One challenge being the grueling task of choosing
