when the dust settles Blog 15

So the floor is all done and the deconstruction team is all cleaned up, paid and gone. The second contractor is in and the painters came in to paint and finish the front façade. While they were busy doing that, I started the clean up. Although no work has been done in the kitchen and the back third of the restaurant, the dust from the concrete grinding is everywhere. So I took out my brand new mop bucket (I’m so proud I own a mop bucket hee hee hee) and cleaning supplies and started at it. When I was done, it was time to do it again. It’s almost like the fire suppression system went off. So we got that all cleaned up and then cleaned up the bathrooms. We will be doing work in there but I need to have them clean for the workers. Look after your staff and they’ll look after you. Ok these ppl aren’t my staff but they are contracted by me so in a sense they are. Then it was off to the bank. The first part of my mortgage came in and we’re good to go financially. Tomorrow Louise will be paid her first instalment as well as the contractor for the façade work. I had my first person walk in today to offer a résumé. I was in shock for a second. I mean I have done that, but I’ve never been on the other end of it. I go back and forth between feelings about 500 times a day. Sometimes I’m cool and feel confident and then there are times were I just stop in my tracks and say to myself. “What are you doing? You can’t do this” but like I said a few blogs ago I’m now committed.

Tomorrow is meeting day and then Thursday back to the Resto to meet with the engineer and Pepsi rep.  

Cheers Le Commis
