Bygones and Beginnings


Time continues on as I close another door and transition through another into a new beginning. Saying goodbye to my small sweet shop was one of the hardest things I have had to do; however, has brought me to a new door that is opening at a steady pace, with each step taking me across the threshold into the light of a new day.

As I reflect back on the last year and especially these last two month I have to admit there has been some struggles and some victories. With each struggle I found myself questioning and examining all the reasons that I felt could of lead me to each specific obstacle; however, what I learned though each trial was to remain steady and constant and to never give up. Life is a lesson and we learn as we go.

Now, I will be the first to share that maintaining this steadfast mindset was anything but easy, yet help me cope within each given situation. The lessons I have learned are life experiences that will carry me though this life with more self-introspect and wisdom; wisdom pertaining to life, relationships, business,  trust, people, and family.

Therefore, as I say goodbye to my shop I say an enthusiastic Hello to my new beginning. I will continue to do what I love, which is helping people, AND Retiquing, Uptiquing and Antiquing.
 
 A bygone may be something within the past; however, is not an end, conversely it  is simply a new beginning.

Dear Consignees/Renters, and Friends of U.R.U,

The recent change within our personal life circumstance has taken its toll upon us, which in return has forced us into selling our business U.R.U., (Antique, Vintage, Handcrafted and Artisan Shops. Do to the recent changes of theses life events. It is with great sadness that I inform you of our leaving the business as Owner/Operator of U.R.U.  This is written notice that U.R.U., will be selling U.R.U., effective July 15, 2013.

I want to thank you for your business, support and friendship. You have helped me do what I love for the past year, and now it’s time for me to travel a little further along the path of life, which so happens be in Las Vegas, Nevada.  Please remember me years from now when you think back about the little shop in Lawrence, Kanas we started and how we all became a family of complimenting hobbies, business and interests. Know that I have loved working with each and every one of you and that saying goodbye was not taken lightly or easy by no means, it was and is the most bittersweet transition in my life.

Lastly, please remember to keep doing what you love- “Picking” fabulous antique and Vintage treasures, upcycling, repurposing, and upstyling. One person can open the eyes of another through the past and create a vision into the future by preserving and recreating. All it takes is one person to make a difference!
