One of the dear ladies who plays bridge here turned 75 and her daughter calls and says she wants to honor her mother by having a luncheon and the birthday gal insists on it being here. GREAT, so she sets it up for 18 -20 people. no problem, we can do that. Long story (very long story) short... 37 people and one luncheon later.. we find a cell phone on the floor. we figure someone will call looking for it.
Well, I get up this morning and think.. "hey no guest coming till Friday, my first appointment with a client isn't till 11:30, I'm going to take a little time this morning and just sit and have my coffee and read the 'forum'. So I pour my coffee at 7:15am and still in my jammies sit down to my computer.
HA! This newby still has much to learn... at 8;00am Sharp the door bell rings... (it couldn't be the phone cuz i'm still in my jammies). Here is a lady... the one who lost the cell phone! She comes in and says shes been out already and had coffee and just wanted to come by and pick up her phone. She did go on to say what a lovely time everyone had at the luncheon, and she is going to tell everyone about our B&B, and even send her relatives who come to town for a visit, to us.
So as much as i was embarrased bout still being in my jammies, it may have worked out...
Yeah, like most of you I still have my 'income producing' job. I provide crisis counseling to families, and also volunteer counselign for our church members.
I don't know if its a good thing or not to do 'extras' like bridge club luncheons, etc... but I figure it might be good for marketing our B&B and help word get out that we are here!
