"Blooming" at Full Bloom Cottage!

I was lucky enough to grab a couple of days of at the beginning of the week. And when I came into "the store" yesterday morning, I was anxious to see what had been going on. My Country Roads family are always working on something to keep the store looking fresh and putting together displays and vignettes that just POP! Last time I saw Loretta (Full Bloom Cottage Loretta), she was telling me how burned she was, just burned!! Like many of us, we all work hard and there are times you do feel like you are just done with it all. You've got kids to take care of, and a thousand other things going on in your life. Apparently, Loretta is "unburned"! Check out these photos of what she has been up to lately! I was totally impressed when I walked in the door this morning!













Apparently, Loretta is "unburnt", can you tell? I've always been a believer in hard work. And the majority of dealers at Country Roads feel the same way. They are easy to pick out. I don't even have to tell you which ones, because if you too believe in hard work, you can find them very easily. I have met so many people in this business with great ideas, but they never deliver because they don't understand the biggest factor in making it all work, making it all come together, making their dreams become successful. It is simple. It is called hard work! I saw this quote below somewhere, I really liked it

Many people think they want things, but they don't really have the strength, the discipline. They are weak. I believe that you get what you want if you want it badly enough. ~Sophia Loren
