You don't have much to say...

So here I am, two months to the day since opening my little flower shop, and on the heels of the re-opening of the little cafe I ran for nearly ten years, and recently sold.  I received a call today from a long time, former cafe customer who also happens to work for the local radio station that handles my advertising.  She is also, incidentally, a lover of food an very nice person.  For years, updating the cafe website was part of my weekly regimen, along with a never ending list of other tasks.  I've been rejoicing in the freedoms of no longer having those chores related to the cafe, that I didn't realize anyone else might notice.  In addition to updating the specials, monthly coupons and upcoming events, I also wrote a little now and again blurb on the News Page of the website.( http://www.thewildonioncafe.com/)   My friend on the phone told me of her recent trip to the "new" cafe.  After a brief run down of her lunch experience, (ok, it was actually in great detail and I waited for every word of the report) she says "Uh, I checked your web-site.  Lately, (pause) you don't have much to say."  Wow!  You mean someone was actually looking?  Just last week I started to sign up for the free trial of typepad.....Na!  I thought to myself, maybe not.  Well!  How quickly things change when you come into the knowledge you have an audience of one!  Maybe more!  Maybe, I am meant to write.  Maybe, my thoughts really are something to share.  Maybe, in my down time at the flower shop I will finally write that book. Go figure.
