To be honest, the decision to revamp Vintage Glam's website and launch a blog came as something of a "welcomed" surprise to myself. I am not a good adapter to new situations (I have since learned through sharing that I am not the only one). I have closed Vintage Glam's boutique and stopped hosting on-site parties as of the date of this posting, which marks six months into COVID-19. These are three significant changes. What is a girl supposed to do in this situation? Ugh! In any case, I recall a really good friend of mine once asking, "Why do you think change is a bad thing?" (Thank you very much, Roseann. (I'm missing you!) Over the course of the last couple of months, I kept coming back to that question. I really wanted to feel like I had accomplished something by the time the pandemic ended. After that, I put the pint of ice cream and the bag of chips down and turned off the television, allowing myself to concentrate on the things I could do. I felt a sense of empowerment and accomplishment after completing this task. It was past time to make some changes to the website (old one was 6-years old and needed updating). I've always wanted to start a blog where I could share stories about parties, crafting, collecting, and other experiences with others. Additionally, the blog will provide me with an opportunity to stay in touch with my customers (many of whom have become friends) - and, to learn about your personal journey - what have you been up to lately? Please do not hesitate to share your thoughts.
