I’ve pushed back the opening for yet another month.

I had to get a job.

Two jobs, actually, one is at an in-bound call center; the other is a contract editing job I can work at home. you can read more about it here.

In a way I’m kinda bummed about the jobs because I wanted so very very much to work at Texture full-time, but that is simply not a sound financial move right now. I know I could get loans and stuff but that route is the road to doom for me, at least until I learn to handle my money. One of my favorite indie bookstores in Cleveland had to close this summer, the owner was heavily in debt and couldn’t keep it going anymore. He’s 60 or close to it and now has to find a job. That really scared me…it’s one thing to be 36 and scrounging, it’s another to be 60 and in that position. So I’ve had to really think about what would be best for me, my family, and our finances at this time…and that would be to have the bookstore open weekends for now (Fri, Sat, Sun). I have a couple friends who can hang out (for free!) and man the store all day Fridays, since I have to work. Then Sats & Suns I’ll be there.
