Happy Day! It's been a terrific past week of vacation for me! I needed the vacation and the time with family was wonderful. As you all may know, Chris' daddy (David) had a stroke over Memorial Day weekend at age 56. It was a severe stroke as well. Chris had been to West Virginia to stay a couple weeks ago but I had not been due to running the shop. Closing for the week, gave me the opportunity to travel. His daddy is making progress in recovery but this will be a long road of recovery. David is determined! He is in a great nursing home and getting lots of good food and rehab daily! Although being closed for a week was much needed, I realized how much I miss my employees and my OCF Community! Can't wait to open up this morning and see y'alls smiling faces! I appreciate you, The OCF Community, for reading my newsletters, supporting the shop by buying local and showing up in the Circle of Kindness! This is my 'dream shop' because of you! Without you, our Community, we wouldn't be here! Come join us anytime to knit, crochet, talk, laugh, stitch and most of all have FUN!
