Because of the wonderful people that work with me, I don't ever think I missed a school function. I always had brownies whenever I was asked to bring them, ... It was difficult, but that's when I had to rely on people that surrounded me to help me. It gets back to 'it takes a village.' .

If I had been a man in a suit and tie, he would have never given me that clipboard and told me to write that order, ... I threw the clipboard back at him and I said, 'No, you can write the order for me.' .

I can see changing the name from Carol's Linens to Sophie's Linens.

There is no separation between Carol and Carol's Linens. They are one and the same.

It was a short distance (to move), but with a lot at stake, ... And it certainly proved to be the right decision.
