Good evening everyone! I'll be turning seventy on Monday. And I've decided that it's time to be more judicious with my time. So, with that in mind, I'll be spending less time working and more time just enjoying being alive!
My work schedule beginning the week of May, 12th will be Wednesday and Friday 9am to 5pm and Saturday morning 9am to noon. Hopefully this will slow down the amount of shoes coming in so I don't have to keep working six days a week. We'll see how it goes and I'll keep you posted of any changes.
It has been so much fun working with all of you over the years, but it's time to slow it down and spend more time with the grandkids, gardening and just enjoying the day.
Thank-you all for your support over the years, you are more like family than just clients. Enjoy!

I'll just say it's been amazing working with all of you over the years. Thanks so much for your support.

Good afternoon everyone! Just a note to let you know I'm taking the week off for a little me time! It may seem counter productive to take time off when I hacve soooooooo many orders awaiting completion. But it's necessary because no matter how many orders I complete, new orders keep coming in higher than my output and thge baxklog continues to grow. And then it feels daunting and overwhelming and I just have to step back and recharge!
All my clients have been awesome and patient and understanding and it's amazing! Still, after two year constantly being overloaded with work, I've found that the best thing one can do to keep clear and calm is to step away and take a moment!
I want to thank eveyone for being amazing! Otherwise I'd have retired already! Back next week. Happy 4th of July!!

Good Afternoon everyone! As most of you probably know, it's been crazy busy here for well over a year! I've been rushing around the the mad hatter trying to keep up with the demand. Working way more hours a week than anyone should. Still I'm consistently worling with a two month back log despite my best efforts to rein it in to a more mamageable level.
I have to say, everyone has been awesome, waiting patiently, not getting upset (I really do have the best clientele in the known universe!). So, I guess this is the new normal! And I need to recharge, so on Monday, April 8th I'm closing for a little r and r! I'll be back at it on April 18th. I hope you all take time to enjoy the eclipse on Monday and I'll see you in a few weeks. Thanks everyone!

I hope all of you have an amazing Thanksgiving day fillied with family and friends, good food and laughter! I want to thank each of you for your support over the years and especially for your patience while waiting for your orders to be completed. Many ofyou may not know, but I have an enormous backlog of work, at least a months worth of work and the work keeps coming in faster than I can keep up with! And it amazes me and fills me with joy that not one single person has complained or criticized the wait! I truly have the best cleintelle any business could hope for and for that I'm grateful for every day! Thanks so much and enjoy the day!!

I hope you all enjoyed the holiday weekend with family and friends. Now it's back to work!

Hello and good evening to all my amazing clients! I want to let everyone know that I have some scheduled surgery coming next Friday, June 17th. This Thursday, the 16th, will be my last work day until I recover from the operation and am able to resume my work. Things to know:
1. I can't take any new work (that needs to be completed prior to surgery). Already have more than I can complete!
2. Work that is completed can be picked up prior to my return to work, text me and we'll set up a time.
3. The return date isn't known, I'm hopeful for a return mid July. I will send a text letting everyone know, when I return to work!
4. Come see me on my return because after not working for a month or so I know I'll be super bored!
5. I have the best clients in the world!!!
