For the last 12 months i cared for my wonderful mother-in-Law.  We hung out together, went to dinner together, enjoyed each others company until her disease ended her life on June 30, 2015.  My business took 2nd place, but I wouldn’t change a thing.  I feel so privileged and fortunate to have been the one to care for her every need in the last days for her life.

So, now it’s back to working full time in my drapery and upholstery workroom.  Five chairs awaiting to be reupholstered, pillows and shower curtains waiting to be made.  Whew, I’ve got my work cut out for me.  Stay tuned.  I will be posting pictures.

Denise Turner, Interior Designer and Owner of Turn West Design in Cave Creek Arizona hosted a spectacular, by invitation only, open house. They’ve been in their new location since last fall and wanted to thank all those who have made their first 6 months a success. Especially their very special clients. They specialize in Southwest Design, but much of their furnishings will compliment other designs. So, if you want to see what they have to offer, stop in and talk with Denise. She would love to show you around.

To those of you who own your own businesses.  Overwhelmed with year-end paperwork?  Tax preparation? payroll? Quarterly reporting?  You don’t have to be.  Get ready now for next year.  Each year I have the help of Patricia Torres of Patricia’s Bookkeeping Services.  I can’t tell you what a relief it has been to have her.  I don’t have to worry about meeting my clients window treatment deadlines because I’m busy with paperwork.  She handles everything AND she does it remotely.  Yes, my drapery studio is in Phoenix Arizona and Patricia is located in Fresno California.  So including not taking the time away from my clients jobs to do paperwork, I also don’t waste time driving back and forth to her office.  I hired Ms. Torres in 2008 when I first began my window treatment studio and she has helped me through my growth process.  She’s become an invaluable part of my business and I look forward to many future years together.  So, contact Ms. Torres today so you’ll be ready for 2013 year-end!  patriciabookkeepingsvcs@gmail.com
