Wow, I was beautiful 40 years ago! Wish I had believed that then

Life is getting back to normal now that I’m back in North Carolina. Got most orders caught up. The cats made it through the cold. I am glad I didn’t have to go through the cold snaps in January, as cold makes my 73 year-old joints really uncomfortable. I may not look that old, but sometimes I sure feel it.
Hoping my Hawaiian friends and my Nebraska friends are safe  from their disasters.

Ok, all. It’s finally happening. I am going to the west coast to spend time with my sister in Oregon and my daughter in Nevada. I’m so excited. Roommate is here to take care of cats and all, but he doesn’t fill order. So starting Friday I will be gone for five weeks. You can still order but they won’t be filled until late February. You may think you’ll just wait, but some sizes and colors are low in inventory. So if you want to make sure you get what you want, still order now because the shop is set up to prioritize orders by date and there are some size/colors that are sold out or close to it. Love to all, Carol, Ann. (And baby Bella)

I wanted to let people know that I am fine but am in the circle of destruction from Hurricane Helene. I am still open although orders may be late as my shipping company is just opening back up (road closures). Thank you for your patience.

Got to do something I have wanted to do for 8 years. I got to lower my prices from $39.99 to $29.99 (bundles came down, too!)
🎊🎉
My costs finally came down and I am passing the savings on to my customers.

Public announcement: I am not going to be filling orders from now until the end of August. I will be in Reno for the month, visiting my family (ok, mostly for my grandkids!) and my house sitter cannot fill orders. She is a cat specialist! lol.
So, continue to order but understand that the packages will not arrive till the first week of September.
This is the cat.

Good news and not so good. The not so good? The big sale is over (has been for a week).
The good news? Lots of good news!
All sizes and colors have been restocked. We were totally sold out of 11s, 12s, and 13s. But now you can order them in all but the red and purple, which have been discontinued.
Also, we have 2 new colors in most sizes.
Bright coral and a beautiful blue.
I hope you enjoy hearing this.
And our usual bundle is still available.
Buy 2 at regular price and get one at half price. That includes mixing and matching colors and sizes. So, if you want to try just one pair, ask your friends if they want to go in on a bundle and divide the savings. (All must ship to the same address!)

Please read Jenny Trout’s (website below) fabulous take down piece on the current anti fat media reaction to the season 3 lead, Nicola Coughlan’s, Bridgerton actress.

“So, when those thin voices are screaming that a person who isn’t fat by any real-world definition is too large to realistically receive love, the answer is not to scream back, “Fat people deserve love, too!” but, “Do you need to borrow my glasses? Would you like my therapist’s phone number? Can I interest you in shutting the f**k up at all?”

I would rather s**t out my own skeleton than read anymore Bridgerton body-positivity discourse, and I encourage you to s**t out your own skeleton, too. 🦋🦋🦋
