    Freedom Kilts shuts down

    Now that I have your attention!!!

    Bobbie and I are taking my her mother to Seattle next week for a major spine surgery.
    We both will be there for the operation and will then swap out week-on/week-off being there during the recovery and re-hab.

    I will be closing the shop for Mon the 24th through Fri. the 28th. I hope to be back on Thrusday, but it will be a late ferry to the island and I won't get home till after 9 pm.

    I will be getting all of the X Marks Tartan boxes out today and tomorrow. Everyone will be contacted and hopefully happy.

    If anyone needs to contact me I will be on my cell, and Tabea, our seamstress will be in the shop answering the phone and making pockets and small projects. You can ask her to contact me.

    And please bear with me guys, this time has been hectic and worrysome. Some correspondance may have slipped through the cracks of my mind. As soon as we are sure Mom-In-Law is ok I'll get everything back to it's usual frantic state and make ammends to those I have offended.

    That sucks to hear about your Mom-in-Law, I hope she'll be okay. Family is the most important thing in life.

    Steve,

    Take care of the family first. We're not going anywhere. We'll be thinking of you and your family and we'll be here when you get back.

    Good luck!

    I couldn't say it better myself: tend your family, and bring us back good news when you can.
