Most of you are probably already aware of this, but I happen to have another "part time job." That is, I'm a reservist. As part of that gig, I had orders to leave for Afghanistan this weekend. But with current events being what they are, my orders got cancelled, which is a very good thing because my husband is due to rotate this summer... and while the intent was to stay in Hawaii, the lovely Navy found him a job in Virginia. So we'll be moving to Hampton Roads this summer.
Meanwhile, we're prepping this house to be rented, trying to convince my tenants in Virginia Beach to leave, finding schools for the kids, and I'm looking for another job. As you can imagine, it's a little crazy.
I had actually put the shop in "vacation mode," which is Etsy speak for closing temporarily, in preparation for my mobilization, however, I decided to reopen to see how much inventory we could get rid of before moving. Unfortunately, I just don't have time for custom orders or special trips to the post office so for now I'm suspending my hand made sterling rings and international orders. Hopefully the transition will be easy enough that once we've set up shop in Virginia, I'll be able to resume both services.
Anyway, thanks for your support and for bearing with the constant roller coaster that is my life! ;)
