Potential Change on the horizon...

I am at Trade Day right now...in between dealing with what is most certainly the most un refined group of people on the face of the earth. I say that with the ut-most respect...of course! It is weird...there is a man who has offered to buy it and my family has accepted...so barring no shit storms between now and the actual transaction my family will no longer own Trade Day. I have basically grown up at Trade...i was brought here as a child and started helping run it when i was 11 so it has always been a part of my life.It is weird to suddenly think about it not being there...to be able to sleep till God forbid 7 o'clock on Saturday mornings is just obsurd to me because i have never had that luxury. While exciting, yes; you do not know how many times i have begged my parents to sell, the oppurtunity has never arose but now that it has...it isn't at all what i though it would be like, or what i had imagined. There is a certain sadness that will go with leaving this place...Alot of these people that rent form us and come here to shop have literally been there every step of the way as far as i am concerned. They have watched me grow up... requested prom pictures the week after prom, and even attended my high school graduation. They have been an extended family of sorts and to just be done with it is a little bit scary. But all is well or at least it will be. I would have been done witht his place in a few months after graduation anway so i guess its really no different its just coming a little bit early. Now all that said, it has not sold yet, there have been some paperwork done but that has happened before and people backed out so that could very well be the case this time but something feels different about this time.
