Goodness, I am so excited about this week and that tomorrow is Monday! I know most people
hate Mondays, but I am definitely not “most people”. I love the beginning of the week and fresh starts and To Do List check marks!
We finally have things rapidly moving in a positive direction for my husband, with so many appointments and treatments beginning, whether we have actual answers to the many issues he has been experiencing or not. If you can bear with me when he has critical appointments in town and out of town that he may need my assistance with, the rest of my time is for you, my employees, my own self-care, and that sweet little shop that must miss us all and wonder where the heck we have been.
Our false start a couple of weeks ago was difficult in so many ways, full of the unexpected and even unavoidable. We cannot thank you enough for the kindness we receive from you as we serve behind our counters, even when we ended up so short staffed that poor Rylie and I were absolutely discombobulated as we flexed our shop muscles and tried to get back to business for you. We will be bringing on a new staff member to train this week and will again be shaking off the “cobwebs and dust” as we work to get our minds back into service mode, long term. I know we can always count on your smiles and thoughtfulness. And your comments and messages, patience and support have meant so much to my family as we have continued to navigate uncharted territory together, hoping for improvement and a better quality of life for my husband.
As always, we appreciate you! We’ll see you Thursday, Friday, and Saturday 10 to 2.
Ingrid and your Market Square Patisserie team.
