MY New salon

i just realized at 4am as we just came up from our basement (dirt seller) because of tornado warnings that i never  discussed my big change to my new salon.
   i worked at Mary Allies Salon for almost 9 years. It was the perfect salon for me! awesome boss who shared similar Christianity as me and took me under her wings after cosmetology school!  It was like family!  So why did you leave you ask......well a lot of different things came up and i felt God pushing me more and more towards this every time something would happen.
    It happened so quickly! But everything worked out even though i prefer stuff to work out a little bit faster, but you know God he likes to take his sweet time :)
     I have worked for 1month 1/2 and LOVE it! i just went over my numbers last night to see how i am doing compared to working at mary allies and lets just say i feel real good! im not rich by any means :) or am i going to be buying a new car :) (well if that loud sound wasn't a tree falling on my car).......but i can pay all my bills and thats whats important and the fact that im less stressed is AWESOME!!!!!! All i can say is God is Good and my clients are amazing and supportive!!!!!
   my salons name is
 
i've wanted this name for awhile but i was thinking about changing it to my name like everyone else did but it kept nagging me in my heart that it should be Grace family salon.and i found this one day.... this is from Titus 2:11 
For the grace of God has appeared, saving all and training us to reject godless ways and worldly desires and to live temperately, justly, and devoutly in this age, as we await the blessed hope, the appearance 3 of the glory of the great God and of our savior Jesus Christ, who gave himself for us to deliver us from all lawlessness and to cleanse for himself a people as his own, eager to do what is good. Say these things. Exhort and correct with all authority. Let no one look down on you. 

   how can i be less stressed owning my own business well to be honest im still working out some kinks but most of all less stress, like my new scheduling program is awesome......because instead of me calling clients for confirmation, it sends my clients emails to remind them (since most people have smart phones now) i do have a few that want phone calls but the others want text or emails witch is so convenient cuz i can rock Titus and send them all out to my clients during nap time!! I also have a part time schedule which means more time with my family! i really am glad i have the schedule that i have because it works for my clients and works great for me, two days i work 2-7 and then one day 9-2 and my busiest day, saturdays 9-4. i have found my clients are more open to working around my schedule now and they give me more options for their appointments which means i can put them close to other appointments so im not just sitting around waiting! And having my schedule online i can access it any time!
       i haven't had a single kid complain about not sitting on a motorcycle or squirrel.......everyone has loved my new place!!!! i even had a couple kids that i normally have to restrain or just screamers were a whole new child at my new place ....not a peep out of them :) LOVE IT!!!!!
     I love the fact that i just have to take care of my own stuff!!! how i like it :) cleanliness and all!
 So pretty much if you weren't sure if i like my new place......to be politically correct i LOVE my new place!
