In one week, I'll be self-employed.
In one week, I'll be responsible for my own health insurance.
In one week, I'll set my own schedule.
In one week, I'll live in a new house.
Next Wednesday is not only my first day of full-time Blonde Chicken Boutique shenanigans, it's also Moving Day!
The whole family + the whole Boutique is moving (just across town).
To say I'm overwhelmed in as understatement.
Excited and nervous and scrambly and full of oh-my-goodness-what-did-I-forget sort of thoughts!
Last night I couldn't sleep and started thinking about ALL the yarn and fiber I need to pack before moving. And the unpacking! The new place will have a dedicated fiber studio (yay!) but I hate to be apart from my fiber for even a day or two.
So instead, instead of moving all that yarn across town, what if I just send it to you?
How about free (domestic) shipping on any order over $50?
You'll be cheering up both of our weeks by heading over to the Boutique and stocking up handspun yarn, organic cotton and Spinnables.
(to get the free shipping, just place your Etsy order (of over $50) and wait for a CORRECT Paypal invoice)
This little moving sale will be on for just ONE WEEK and on July 1st, I'm going to close the Boutique until I'm all settled in my new studio.
When it reopens, it'll be filled with new and different yarns, so if you like what you see, snatch it up now!

I'll share something with you that I often tell myself when I feel overwhelmed with this sort of thing. I don't know if it'll help you in the same way that it helps me (usual error and all that) but I wanted to share anyway.
“No matter what happens, this path will be far more interesting.”
Best wishes and love to you! (:
