I t's time to let the cat out of the bag...I have been waiting to tell this for a while now, but had to make sure everything was a done deal. I have had a dream of always owning my own store, and the opportunity has come. I have left Girls Gone Junkin' and will be opening Ruby Ellen's in Hurst, Tx. (Details for location will come later as progress is made.) I am so excited, that I can hardly stand it! We picked the name because of our grandmothers. Their names were Ruby and Mary Ellen..and they were great friends while growing up. They would be so proud! Hopefully, if things go smoothly, we will be open in December. Cathy will still be Girls Gone Junkin', and still have the same AWESOME booth at Canton...make sure that is on your list to stop by when you are there, you won't be disappointed. I want to thank Cathy for all of the fun, wild, crazy and stressful times that we had....yes, we should have written a journal, because no one would believe the things we have been through and the stories we have to tell. I wish Cathy continued success and happiness, which I know she will do! I also wanted to thank Shelly.....your advice and info. were much needed! Thank you to all of my friends/customers who have supported me for the past 4 and a half years...I will miss each and every one of you, come see me if you are in the area. Last, but not least, thanks to my sisters for believing in me and having faith.....I love all three of you so much and I can't wait to get started on this new adventure. More updates to come! Keep on JUNKIN'! Deidra

  2. I am happy for Deidra, but sad for me as now we won't have near the time to spend together seeing what "junkin mischief" we can get in to!! We have had soooo many fun,crazy times since starting our GGJ business, but I knew this was a dream of hers, but just hoped it would not come so soon....at least until she was a member of the A.A.R.P! LOL! I will still continue the GGJ business and stay in Canton along with Sue, Pam and Brenda, and who knows, I might just have to pop in her new store and work for old times sake!!! Good Luck to one of my dearest friends!!! Cathy
