Madi’s move week - she found we had a group chat without her.  Hannah, Devin, Maleah and I had a special group chat where they/we complained about Madi not hanging out with us before her moving away.  She was on my phone and found the chat.  Then snapped this unflattering photo to alert the group chat. 

This was a week that began with a lot of momentum.  Our baby.  Our youngest.  Our buddy was prepping for her big move to college.  She worked her last shifts at Caffe Ladro and Hello Robin where she spent almost all summer working two jobs to save money (and spend money) doing what she loves, making coffee and eating/slanging cookies. 3 out of our 4 kids have worked as baristas and have been able to work at Caffe Ladro during their breaks to earn some money. 

I started the week at one of my favorite Caffe Ladro shops in Lower QA.  I have been working at Caffe Ladro managing their operations since 2013.  I started managing their retail stores and bakery then in 2022 supported their roasting/warehouse operations.  

The week kicked off with a road trip for our G6 Retail Renovation Retreat.  We do this twice a year to regroup and align our business path.  We arrived on Sunday and settled in and hung out.  I remained focused on work through the tiny box in my hand.

Entrepreneur Sheree Gibson of G6 Retail Renovation shares a week of balancing family, marriage, and business. From visiting her husband’s remodel project with custom features, to celebrating their anniversary with a Vancouver getaway and exploring the Richmond Night Market, Sheree reflects on life, love, and finding refreshment before diving back into work.

Alrighty, lets roll right into the week - I am realizing we are more than half way through the year.  This time of year all of my memories pop up of my children leaving for college…

Let's start shall we!
