OK, so every fledgling business has them but nobody knows what they're going to be or when they're going to hit until they hit...I'm talking about Growing Pains! Now understand again that this is from the perspective of the spouse watching from the outside as his wife works like a mad woman to get her business firing on all cylinders. Sometimes it's like watching someone blow up a balloon that has a small hole in it somewhere. They keep blowing it up and blowing it up but the air just keeps leaking out of it until you put a piece of tape over the hole until you get a new balloon.
This past week I watched the inevitable trains approach their collision. Two businesses working harmoniously with one becoming more and more well established and the other gaining traction, both in the same work space. The problem, to sound like a happy hippie, is with time and space, man! Both are in high demand and neither have adequate supply. I commend my wife for all of the tasks she takes on during the day and some (including me) see her as a SuperWoman. It's hard to see her facing situations that add more to her plate because, like a SuperWoman does, she will take it head on in the relentless pursuit of conquering the challenge. So all this beating around the bush translates into the simple fact that at some point, in the not too distant future, Weat Free is facing the reality of finding a new location to prepare and package its delicious goodness. This is a daunting, yet not insurmountable, situation that must be dealt with and chalked up simply to growing pains. It's a challenge....but it's a good challenge.
