Into the Home Stretch
HEADED INTO THE HOME STRETCH!
April and May are bringing us closer to the home stretch. We watched the exposed wood get wired, and plumbed. The drywall is in place and has been taped and prepped. We are directing our painters about color choices and the painting should begin this week. Fixtures are ordered and the décor is taking shape! We are opening with new and exciting products, and the orders have been placed with deliveries beginning.
As mother’s day approaches we all begin to remember and celebrate the important women in our lives. We would like to take this opportunity to say “Happy Mother’s day” to our moms, and to all the amazing women out there. We encourage you to take a moment to relax and put your feet up. We continue to offer gift certificates on line, and thank you for your continued support. Construction “PERMITTING”, The Barefoot Sage will be open in early JUNE!!!!!

Building Began!
Building Begins
It was a beautiful, sunny winter afternoon, we saw the FIRST and truest sign of building commence. The old roof and support beams were taken down, and the building was allowed to breathe its first breath of fresh (smokeless) air since October 2009. New support beams were brought in and hoisted into place, following quickly behind was the re-framing of the roof. Next week should see the rest of our space being framed and prepped for drywall. Exciting!! We are thrilled and encouraged to finally be sharing with all of you the beginning steps in the building process.
We are coming back, and we are going to be stronger and better than ever!! We will continue to keep you updated on the progress in the spa. Keep your eyes and ears open for our mid-spring 2010 re-opening. Follow us on Facebook, www.bfsage.blogspot.com or on our website www.thebarefootsage.com.
Thank you for your continuing support,

The Sun Is Shinning Through The Building!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not only has the sun been shinning for all of us to enjoy, but it found it's way into The Barefoot Sage as well because.................................. the roof is gone and the renovation is starting!!!
I feel so invigorated and light, my shoulders literally felt the pressure coming off of them when walking down Hawthorne towards The Barefoot Sage on Monday. We saw the lock to the door open, one of the curtains raised, construction equipment, contractors and framers starting to do what they do best and several of our Barefoot Sage team members ready to help with a project.
I would wake up every day since the fire just hoping for this day to arrive and at night I would go to sleep hoping that the next day would be the day when something would happen so that I could share with the world what I'm sharing with you today, I played it over and over in my mind, exactly what I would say. Today I sit here, wanting to describe the feelings because it seems like the words "happy", "excited", even "thrilled" just don't measure up to what has filled my heart since the sun started pouring in through the open roof of our soon to be new home.
So much healing happens inside our spa, I sometimes wondered how all of us would heal after this. For me, this begins the tangible healing.
Our contractor is working very closely with us to achieve the best results in the renovation of The Barefoot Sage. Having the opportunity of starting with a clean canvas, we are making some improvements and changes that we are sure you will enjoy.
The one thing that hasn't happened yet, is a more defined opening date but we were told that hopefully next week they will be able to tell us with more certainty. Patience seems to come with any and all interactions regarding our journey to opening our doors again and I admit that this is normally a challenge for me but today, knowing that the work has started I feel calm and more than ever thankful for what is to come. It will be beautiful, peaceful, colorful, warm and inviting.
YAY!!!!!THE WORK HAS BEGUN.

Time.....................
I am amazed at how different time can seem from one experience to the other, from one moment to the other. Emotionally, time can really be excruciating. Every inquiery we receive about our reopening date I just feel my heart wanting to scream because beleive me, if it were up to us we woud've been open a long "TIME" ago.
Sometimes it seems like the fire was only a few days ago, sometimes it feels like it's been forever since we started the rollercoaster of getting our home, business and safehaven for a lot of people back from the ashes.
To those closest to me, I really appreciate your support and kind words even when I show my raw emotions to you, sometimes in the form of exasperation and frustration. I pray that you never have to experience this.
I am honestly humbled by how many of you have continued to support us by purchasing gift certificates on line, our very skilled therapists are going to be thrilled to see all of you hopefully very soon.
I want to push fast forward and be open already, I am feeling like time is stuck and we all are just floating in the air at it's mercy wishing, hoping, and really wanting to defy every second, minute and hour that doesn't go by.
Today I am sending it out into the universe, please continue to give us strength to endure the weeks ahead, to beleive that all the people involved in this project are using their time wisely to get us up and running soon, please make sure all of our loyal clients know how desperately we want to be there for them and that their support is amazing. Yes, we are all very grateful that we are safe and that nobody got hurt through this.
Time has brought me some truely wonderful memories, for them I take the "TIME" and revel in the moment.
If we live good lives,
the times are also good.
As we are,
such are the times.

Always,
