How Time Flies - Christmas is just around the corner.

I find myself in a difficult situation at the beginning of each year.  Firstly, I need time to recover and not think about business for a few weeks.  At the same time suppliers start coming and insisting we order for the coming year.  And while this is all going on, I'm making decisions without even knowing where we will have a store, or what size it will be, for the coming year.  I become quite anti-social as this all seems a bit overwhelming.

So from a work perspective I ignore January (and catch up with my beautiful kids I've hardly seen for 3 months), and then try and put my head in the sand during February and March as companies are asking us to make decisions.  My April, even though I have a while before I must find a location I start to panic and spend more time on realestate.com.au than any other web site.  And then in May it is all systems go - and I wish I hadn't wasted the first few months of the year.

So for now I will continue to work on finding the perfect home for our business, as well as choosing the most gorgeous and fun Christmas decorations, and beautiful Christmas trees you could imagine.  And just hope it all comes together in the end.
