** I am not actually 'away' as the vacation notice suggests.  I am here, and I am working.. it's just hard right now.

Please know that my best efforts will be made to fill the orders that are in-house in the most timely manner possible. 

  My family has been shattered by an unimaginable loss, and I am taking time to grieve and cope for 'as long as it takes' 

Originally, I had suspended all listings 'indefinitely'.  In the early stages of shock, I couldn't even breathe.. let alone 'work'.

 I have re-opened the listings.  Shipping times ARE going to be slow.  I am taking this one step at a time.  As a family owned/operated business, consisting of only myself, my mother and my father.. we had become a well oiled machine.  My father's involvement in the day-to-day workings was crucial.  I am desperately trying to stay on top of all the tasks he would have handled, and to organize my efforts to fill in for the hole that has been left.

If you cannot tolerate a slow shipping schedule, PLEASE refrain from ordering at this time.

If you can be patient, and understand slower-than-usual shipping times.. I welcome your orders, and will do my best to move them through as quickly as possible.

It is what my father would have wanted me to do.
