Hi all, Just wanted to let me regular customers know that I am back from my Grandma’s funeral. I will be working over time to get orders out as quickly as possible the next two days. Thanks for your patience, Julie
Hi all. I just wanted to let my customers know that I will be out of town for a few days for my Grandma’s funeral. When I get back I will send orders out in the order they came in. I apologize for any inconvenience that this causes any of you. At most your orders will go out 5 days later than normal. My Grandma was 95 years old. She passed away early in the morning Friday. I am delivering part of the eulogy, so it was very important that I be there.
