Sneak Peek; fixed links; and an explanation + FREEBIE

 The link for Saturday's freebie has been fixed.  So, if you have been checking and anxiously awaiting that news, be sure to scroll down to yesterday's post and snag that wonderful quick page that Shelby shared.  I do want to ask for a bit of loving grace from all of you fantastic Connie fans, especially for the next month or so.  Shelby and I are both educators.  We are both back at work in environments vastly different than what we've ever been in before and we're reeling.  It's like trying to fly a plane while you are building it at the same time.  We're also human and humans make mistakes.

In the past when something went wonky here on the blog, I've tried to fix it within a 24 hour period. Now, I'm asking you to give me 72 hours from the time the first person comments about the issue.  For the next month at least, I'll be checking the blog on Sunday (usually after church, today I just happened to wake up early and I'm trying to squeeze in this blog post before we head off) and Wednesday evenings.  That's probably it for most weeks.   So if a problem happens Thursday - Saturday, I'll fix it on Sunday; if a problem happens Sunday - Wednesday, I'll fix it Wednesday evening.  That's my commitment at the moment.  I may check more than that but as of this moment that's the two times I know that I should be able to check the blog and handle things.

Thank you all for being the awesome Connie Prince fans you are and thank you in advance for the patience and grace that I know you are going to extend to us!

On to today's sneak peeks!  Yes, you get double this week!  As always, if you would like to be entered into a drawing for each of these, you can leave a comment on the sneak peek post at Club Connie Prince on Facebook.


I look forward to sharing these with you on Friday!

Connie released two fantastic new kits this past week.  Have you checked them out?

Anita, Lily, and Lisa, you just made today a lot better with your sweet words. I hate disappointing people and this is definitely not our normal. Connie is so generous and amazing so I also don't want anything to reflect negatively towards her.

Each day we are looking for a scrap of anything that resembles "normal." My mantra all last week was, "I'm here for the kids. They need me." and "I have a job. It may not look like what it did before (I'm not even teaching what I was supposed to be teaching but that also has happened to several throughout our district as we work to serve our students both face to face instruction and virtual instruction) but I have a job and if I can give just a little comfort to my students who have had their whole worlds upended, then I am where I need to be.

Ya'll are amazing and we love you!
