CH CH CH Changes….
May 4th, 2009TO DREAM THE IMPOSSIBLE DREAM…
February 1st, 2009It certainly is a new day in America. The change comes where we like it or not. Its about 8 months since the store closed. The anger is finally subsiding. I am turning the page, Its about a month with out the e-commerce site. I miss them both. There are so many things I wish that I did better. Se La vie. I have turned the page, (so hard for me say). I have enrolled in Empire State College to pursue the long forgotten bachelors degree, with a view to a Masters Degree in Geriatrics. I want to have a facility or facilities that reflect the aesthetic and sensibilities of my peers as we age and inevitably die. As I said to dream the impossible dream. But figure what a great gift shop we could have in our old age home. Speaking of gifts I spent 5 days at the NY gift show and caught up with some of the finest retailers in the game. I can’t recommend them enough. FRED FLARE.COM, SPOONSISTERS.COM, ALPHABETS, PARTYPARTNERSHOP.COM i ENCOURAGE YOU TO PATRONIZE THEIR STORES AND THEIR WEBSITES. I guess this blog is an exercise in futility as i remain part of the blank generation. Perhaps I will continue. Perhaps not. Perhaps, Perhaps Perhaps
BIG GIRLS DON’T CRY…

PEACE ON EARTH…
December 21st, 2008Hey, Happy Holidays? Well, I hope so. These certainly are strange holidays this year. The first in 10, that I don’t have the store. And to boot… I put the e-commerce website out of its misery yesterday. And of course, I had 3 online orders from out of the blue… OH well. So Sad. Its all over now So my most sincere wishes to everyone for a peaceful, loving holiday and a healthy and profound new year. Good luck and God/dess bless us all. xonn
Its a Hard, Its a Hard, Its a Hard Rain a Gonna Fall…
December 3rd, 2008Well, before I write any thing else THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for coming out to see us at PS 321. It was a lovely and warm homecoming. Now the brutal pulling off of the band-aid. I am closing the e-commerce site as of 12/20/08. So get your cards and letters. It, like the store was a huge learning curve, that has had little result. and I ain’t getting no bailout. sigh. So there you have it folks. The official end of an era. I think i will keep the blog, its pretty amusing and I feel so hip referring to my blog. This last bastion of “hipness” for this old girl. What can you do. Life keeps on changing, and i keep fighting it. But, to end on a better note, then Bob Dylan. ugh. I am going to try my hand at higher eduction (again). and step into the world of geriatric social work. (provided I can get my bachelors degree.(finally). So let that be a lesson. Stay in School and Don’t do Drugs.
TURN AND FACE THE STRANGE CHANGES…
November 19th, 2008Time may change, me but I can’t trace time… Change Change Change… thought I would be used to it by now. Change, Change and change again…the same change again. What I am trying to say is that I now am going to close the E-commerce site. I tried, but it is just not working. And, just like the store, I need to shut it down…I will keep nancynancy.com. and my fascinating blog. But the rest must go… Just like the rest of the country, the world, I have run out of money… plain and simple and no one is bailing me out. To bad, so sad. Poor me. Its all ego. I didn’t want the store to close, so with out even thinking i was all “I have to start a website” and of course it couldn’t be a humble small site, I had to have a full blown e-commerce site. Then again, like the store, I had to change the look a million times…each time swearing “When it’s done, then I will do all the marketing”. Sigh. I kept thinking it would work, but for the life of me I couldn’t translate what happened in my store on the internet. Two different animals, and not even animals that look cute together. So Ch Ch ch changes…Embarrasing, humiliating, humbling nerve wracking, crazy. crazy crazy. Finally, for now what this leaves me with is a bunch of product, great gifts, and you guessed it!! Christmas, excuse me, holiday. So I told you the bad news, the good news is I will re-appear in Brooklyn for a brief moment at the PS 321 flea market on Saturday, November 29 and 30… Be There Buy Stuff. Stay tuned for the next chapter… what am I gonna do now.
WE CAN DO IT YES WE CAN…CAN…
