Our art and design business has done better than most small businesses in this recession. However, with all the uncertainties, I have kept the spending down.
It has been very hard to refrain from buying the wonderful clothes that the luxury and upscale stores have been offering at great prices.
Even though we're not rolling in the money like we once were, things are starting to look up. Just recently I've had some of my wealthy clients calling me back and putting deposits down.
As my bottom line improves, II plan to splurge on some of those wonderful fashions that I have been lusting after for the past two years. I'm planning a shopping trip next week. I saw some beautiful jackets I'd really like to have. I'm sure they're marked down, and if I can find my size I'm going to nab them.
