Beyond Spoiled Orders

[Kathryn_V]

I want to send out an apology to any customers who have had to wait to get their orders. I have recently moved.... As in this last weekend and the orders that I received over this last week have not gone out The reason being... All of my inventory is boxed up! lol The movers have delivered my house full of furniture and along with that mu whole life "in boxes" and I have started the tedious task of unpacking it! I assure you that unpacking my business is my first priority, however getting to my boxes is a challenge in and of itself! Playing Jenga out in my garage is NOT fun! I have to wait for hubby to come home each night to have him move boxes around to get to the ones I need! And I am almost there... By this weekend I will back in action!

Again, I am sorry for any delays and thank you for your patience!

Your friend,

Kathryn

Moving sucks!! I'm know anyone who has ever moved surely understands!! Best of luck!!

[Erin]

Every time we have moved we've promised ourselves we will use movers and then we end up doing it ourselves. Never again (HA!) Anyway, I agree that MOVING SUCKS. And waiting for hubbies to help move stuff around is no fun either

[Shadow]

yep,moving sure does suck. I have been in my new place a month and still unpacking. Im getting slow in my old age.
No excuses for you girl, get after those boxes.

[LuvMySissy]

Kathryn - hope the unpacking is going well for you and you are liking the new house. We're just getting a little ahead by ordering our Pixie Stix for the GE and treats for Sissy & Angel. Whenever they get to us is fine!!

Hi Kathryn, I dont have an order but moving does suck lol we moved here march 1st and i am still unpacking boxes in the garage lol ( getting rid of alot too), so I know exactly what your going through...... I'm sure your customers understand

[adorame]

I know all to well what you mean, we moved into our house 11 months ago and I still am not done with the boxes!! I ended up getting kidney stones moving day and it took 11 day's before they all 3 passed I was medicated up pretty much so I was of no use!

Kathryn~ if you need/want any help, I'd be happy to help you move stuff and unpack. During the week anyway, LOL. I know what a DRAG it is! Give me a call~ Seana

[Kathryn_V]

Thnak you! I'm getting there, slowly but surely....

I moved into Indian Springs CC over between Dune Palms and Jefferson. So far I really like it! The gaurds are really nice and the neighbors have been great. The HOA is really great about maintance so the place looks great! And the house is nice and big so everyone is happy. I'm also right next to Henry's which is not nearly as great as a Wholefoods would have been or even a Clarks... but Hey! I'll take what I can get!

Are you a whole foods eating kind of person?? I should have you over for dinner! We had spaghetti last night. The noodles were made out of zucchini and the sauce was fresh... made from all raw ingredients, not cooked. The entire meal was buzzing with enzymes and was soooo good! I am big on the raw food! And for desert we had bananas drizzled in raw chocolate sauce. I make it from scratch. Its the best chocolate you've ever had! Hands down!

I'm going to start teaching classes on Raw food prep... I'm writing a book on it now. Its a passion of mine.

Did you notice I am here and NOT unpacking.... I am really dreading every box! LOL Its not fun... Its amazing how much CRAP we collect over time! UGH!

Kathryn~ Too funny!

That's the nice thing about being in a gated, guarded community....no trashy front yards, etc....I had no idea what it was like outside of one til now and I'm looking for something back inside the gates, LOL. Are you guys on the golf course? I can only imagine how that goes over with Pixie .
I don't know that much about whole foods..I mean, I know basically what they are, but as to preparing them myself, no....I like practically anything though esp. if it's healthy!
I don't blame you for procrastinating though...I detest the entire moving process and we had movers pack EVERYTHING and move it and bring it all into the house and set the furniture up. It's the unpacking that's a nightmare . But it's easier when you've got some help. I'm the type that can't function until I have all my STUFF where I want it, haha. And yeah, it IS amazing how much we accumulate from year to year. We've got the entire golf cart garage full of boxes that will never be unpacked until we move again to a larger place; I've maxed this place out, LOL! Which is why I offered to help you; that way you'll have to help ME when we move, . Just joking.
Anyhow, if you need help next week, give me a call. I'd rather go over that way than to CC...I've seen too many accidents lately!!! Oh...you ARE on your lunch break, right??? Max sends his love

I'm sorry but it's hilarious that you have a golf cart garage.

It's funny to hear people rave about associations. Our association is a joke and they make stupid rules. I grumble when I send them my $100 every month...

[Kathryn_V]

This one is GREAT! Its very active... And very big on the rules too... but the rules make it such a nice place to live! But I know what you mean... a friend of mind has an HOA that makes it like she's living in hell! She HATES it! She wants to sell and get out!

I'm one street over from the golf course... Thank heavens... Pixie would NEVER shut up if I had golfers strolling by the window all day long! lol And the block wall is nice. I don't have to worry about them in the yard.

Oh! and I just got a menu at my door from the club house yeaterday.. I can order takeout from the resturant there! The menu looks great too! I'm afraid to start though... I love taking the easy way out when I'm busy! LOL

[BabyFidgette]

Moving is very stressful! And FYI on the business: if you can't handle it right now, which is SO understandable, put an announcement on your site that says the store is closed for a little while. If people want something that badly, they will wait.

I guess if you haven't lived here, it does sound a little bizarre. But almost everyone golfs and I think the majority of homes here have a golf cart garage whether you've got a golf cart or not. They actually have golf cart lanes on a lot of the streets here, and I used to drive ours to the grocery store about a mile away. With the gas prices now, it would come in really handy! Thank goodness we sold ours before we moved here though, or we'd have no room for it now, and I think (compliments of our newest next door neighbors) that there's enough marginal and surplus vehicles on the street . I am regretting all the complaining I did about living on a golf course now; I guess there ARE worse places to live .

Our HOA was great too; our cable, garbage, and housepainting every two years was included and it was only ...well, I forget, but it wasnt' very much.... $120 I think. And Kathryn, thank goodness the club house didn't do takeout; we'd still be in hoc to them, as I would have FAR exceeded the congressional, LOL. That's just WAY too temptiing!
