I'm not gonna lie guys, it's tough right now. I'm getting utility bills from Feb/March now, plus annual fees from different services, and the sales haven't kicked in yet for the summer season. The store is full, the items are superfun, the traffic isn't happening, yet. Doesn't help that the landlord stops in, curious to know how sales have been (if I'm busy, he assumes I'm actually making money, which I definitely am not). Then he gives you the '....you know, if sales don't pick up....'. Yeah, thanks Albert, I'm well aware. I love it when people who've never been in this position pass edict on it.

Truth is guys, the store is at the two year mark, and it barely broke even this year. That includes the fact that I had another job for 10 months over the first year, and 5 months this year. Yes, it's spiritually fulfilling (better be when you get 2 days off every 2 months), but it's hard putting everything you have into something that can't feed you, literally.
