Monday, Oct 12, 2009: Re-entry!!! This is what we call it when I get back from a trip and have to get used to the routine again. Each time is easier because I'm learning how to decompress and not expect to hit the ground running. Also, my office staff is doing an excellent job of keeping the orders processed, the events coordinated, and the projects in the forefront while I'm gone. I am thankful for the team we have. Each person brings her own talents to the group. We are all understanding of each person’s job and willing to pitch in when someone’s job requires extra effort. Anita has done such a great job to keep everything going while we hunted for a replacement for Alicia Sanchez for order processing. (Alicia worked with us for the last year until her family needed her back in Michigan. For a little while we did have an Alicia at Alicia’s Attic! In case you are wondering, I named the business after my grandmother.) Alicia’s replacement is Rachel Hill. You may remember her because she was featured in Quilter’s Newsletter Magazine when she won a blue ribbon on her first large quilt at age 14. She used the Not Your Grandmother’s Tumbling Blocks strip-pieced method which impressed the judges. We are so blessed to have her here working with us full time and enjoy the new addition to our team. When you call the office, more than likely, Rachel will be answering the phone.
