It just burns me up. I've even had that happen in Taos; I wonder if the shop person figures I'm "just a tourist" and won't be back again...so why bother. (In fact, there is a small yarn shop in Taos that is locally known for this kind of bad treatment...how sad is that.) My #1 goal with my shop was customer service, and I am proud to say over the five years I was in business, we received lots of compliments from customers and heard far too many stories of "crabby yarn shop ladies". Shame on that woman for treating you that way...there are few enough dollars to be spending outside of our homes, and doing so should be a fun experience!Taos Sunflowerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14858962854162972354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3417359688941324284.post-89670681035574723352010-09-26T22:22:49.693-03:002010-09-26T22:22:49.693-03:00Wow, I hate that I'm just now reading this.

When it's been a stressful week or I've done too much and haven't had a break in too long, the fatigue and stress will get to me. Sounds like it might have caused a migraine for you. We can only go full speed ahead for so long before we crash. Today was my crash. I've just physically done too much over the last week besides the other stuff and today it really caught up with me. I hope you have recovered and this week will be better.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04774228307563547896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3417359688941324284.post-43486482649341694692010-09-26T19:58:21.680-03:002010-09-26T19:58:21.680-03:00That story is almost unbelievable?

I have found that I will get a migraine whenever I have a day off. My doctor says it is the change in schedule and that I should get up at 4:30 AM everyday. Cure is worse that the headache, if you ask me!<br />Hope you are felling better and able to enjoy the weekend.Debra Lloydhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04571041759890970901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3417359688941324284.post-19321336301389480812010-09-26T01:00:57.463-03:002010-09-26T01:00:57.463-03:00Thank goodness it doesn't happen often to me, ...Thank goodness it doesn't happen often to me, but when I get a really bad migraine, I will get sick just like you described!

What a shame your experience at the wool shop was so bad, especially since she had good wool :)<br />Hopefully you soon will have another day to play when you are feeling better.<br />Like Cathy G said, snuggle up with Millie and feel better soon.<br />Pug hugs :)<br />LaurenRugs and Pugshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17084387971128823025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3417359688941324284.post-14342490932389529112010-09-25T16:56:36.122-03:002010-09-25T16:56:36.122-03:00Oh my gosh, you were getting sick?

I am so sorry,<br />take another day when you feel better and go do the fun stuff and do not go to the wool shop. That was just creepy, I went into a quilt shop and had the same experience. I won't go again either. When stuff happens like that I always wonder, "Am I invisible?" People wonder why they go out of business too.<br />I hope you have a lots better day and you feel better. I hope today you get to rest.Farm Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00998621464797636686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3417359688941324284.post-60630970100841524982010-09-25T15:59:40.678-03:002010-09-25T15:59:40.678-03:00Oh Kim, it sounds like a bad dream ...

Better luck on your next "Me Time" outing.<br /><br />The girl in the shop couldn't have be the owner I would presume. If she was the owner, she won't be in business for very long. It may be her daughter or someone on drug needing drug money. This is unreal. I sure hope the wool was worth it.

I'm finding stress to be a major factor. <br />Even though your trip was not what you'd hoped at least you got a blog post out of it!! Honestly, I can't figure people out who actually are running businesses and act so rude! The only thing I can think of is she was just completely in shock over actually making a sale LOL! I certainly hope you are making a complete recovery and can enjoy a nice Fall weekend. How's Millie doing? Sounds like you and she need to snuggle up and enjoy some pampering!<br />Hugs,<br />Cathy GCathy G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14409521338403315750noreply@blogger.com
