What is the lemonade that we can make out of the lemon served to us by Covid-19? As Diane and I look at how our lives have changed with our children and their families, and our business CBL
Floors , we have a new outlook on how important our daily interactions are. There is not a day that we don’t encounter people in a unique life situation. Some of these situations are exciting, some are not so. A common thread is that our lives are changing at a faster pace. So we look at our small world and give thanks for our blessings. New opportunities for our business keeps us busy and focused on the good in our life. Each day we get the opportunity to meet new people and old friends when interacting with CBL customers. Covid-19 brought huge changes to all aspects of our lives. Complete shutdown of our nation in March, travel and no-fly restrictions to areas, and the self-quarantine for all except essential workers. CBL Floors was classified in an essential category. Our business started moving forward again and now is at full capacity. Some more lemonade is the fact that many people are working from home, and like my “honey do list”, many homeowners’ lists started growing & growing! There are a lot of flooring projects on those lists, too. They say timing is everything in life. Just as the pandemic was becoming more public and alarming, CBL’s 5-year, long- term lease expired. We moved our store office to our warehouse office space, and created a staging area for our samples. At first our in-home appointments happened outside at Diane’s car. Showing samples in the daylight was interesting, challenging, and chilly. As time marched on our appointments moved inside your homes. Now we are welcomed into your homes as Diane and I wear masks for your personal well-being. If you request, our installers will wear masks too.
Thank You for the opportunity to have CBL Floors Create Beautiful Living for you!
