In about 2 weeks’ time, I’ll be off on the cruise on which I will be teaching needlework. I’ll be away from 10th – 19th of February. During this time, I will not be able to attend to any orders for Vetty Creations products. (Just a bit hard to do that from somewhere in the South Pacific…!)
I apologise for the inconvenience this may cause, but there isn’t really much I can do about it. Any orders that come in via post, phone or website while I am gone will be attended to on my return.
For me to be away from the family for two weeks it is going to be a Herculean task for my mother and mother-in-law to keep my girls’ lives functioning as normal. Because my husband will still be working full time, he can’t be at work and getting the girls to their activities at the same time. I am very grateful to my mums for doing this for me. I’m going to have to write out a schedule of all the after school activities so that all are covered, and all children get to where they are supposed to be!
At least The Gymnast only ever goes to the one place, so that’s quite easy, really! The Reader does all sorts of activities as her interests are quite wide. At least with it being so close to the beginning of the school year, not all their activities will have started up just yet, so that will make things a little easier.
I think I might start making larger meals and putting portions in the freezer for them to use while I am away. That will make it much easier for my husband when he comes home from work each night.
School goes back this week, so by Friday, I’ll be home alone again. 🙂 I’ve got lots to organise before I go on the cruise. Apart from getting the kits and instructions ready for my classes, I also have another couple of jobs that need to be complete before I go. I think I might start a to do list!
And also, we’re now really planning my next study trip to Europe. Planning a holiday is always so much fun! And no, I’m not telling you where we are going. That’s still a secret. 😉
