Good Morning: It's Coffee Time

Good Morning everyone. I am up with the hubby this morning and have been tackling my notifications. I am almost caught up to a normal amount and to just a one day lag. I have had one cup of coffee this morning while reading notifications and about to get cup number two and see what some of my friends here have been up to. I am going to try to catch up on another thing that has been lacking here which is my flea market booth. I am going to try to make it out there and straighten up my booth and add a few new things. It's been over two weeks so I know things will be out of place and messy. This is the part I hate and gets out of hand when you miss a week or longer of going by there. What are your plans for today?

It's good to be caught up with notifications. I'm behind. I hope you get the flea market booth straightened out. I have a small group today, other than that, it was swimming and a nap.

I didn't stay caught up for long. Getting mom out of the hospital Friday pretty much took care of that. But it's okay, I've still been checking in every day.

@just4him Yes, but it is all still stressful.

How often is the flea market open? Does someone else look after it for you if you're not there?

It is open seven days a week. And nope, you are responsible for the upkeep of your booth. So I really need to get out there.

@kareng So you just lock it up when you can't be there?

@JudyEv They have security cameras and doors are all locked up at night. Starting in July vendors will spend a day a month "helping out." We will watch for shoplifting, kids playing with things, help open locked boxes and doors in back for pick up of large items. We can also use this time to clean up our booths and add new items. It's all up to us. With the number of vendors there, this will add two people per day to the staff workers. I think this will work very well.

It sounds like you had a busy day. What kind of side hustles do you do?

@Spontaneo You are a busy lady. I used to write for a couple of print magazines back in the day. I really need to get back into serious writing now that I am retired.

@kareng I am a chief editor for 4 hubs. I do survey work. I am a team leader for a fitness & nutrition website. I am waiting for my work as a contributing writer for an on-line women's magazine to start back up again. The magazine's website has shut-down for the time-being.

Ices or hot? I had a Frappe yesterday and it would have been very good if frozen but they didn't mix or blend it at all. All ice on bottom but none on tip.

@mrki444 I don't like iced coffee, but do enjoy a Frappe (frozen) coffee every now and then during the summer.

Awesome coffee in the morning means awesome work for whole day. Well my plan today is working some design (I am graphic designer) and learning to make birthday cake. My dad's birthday is coming up and I want to surprise him with my homemade cake.

Nope, everything is taken to the cashier and the house gets 10% to do this. Starting in July vendors will have to put in one day of work to help assist with opening lockboxes, customer pickups for big items that need the big doors open in the back and for monitoring shoplifting and also kids playing with things in booths. I"m all for this.

Good morning! I just returned from my morning walk and am having coffee right now. I’m going to a birthday lunch for me, yet again, then out shopping with my husband. I feel the same with my notifications as you do with your flea market booth.

I was surprised that it wasn't bad at all and I had things all tidy in under 30 minutes.

I love it. It was more fun when we were also going to auctions, but haven't had the time for that lately. It's a good way to make some extra cash. This market is indoors so no problems with being hot or rain.
