All Things Cricut

After calling several numbers for people associated with All Things Cricut I got a call back from a Sean Curran. He was very sorry for the problems that I had with my order and is making the situation right. He asked me to post a phone number that other customers who are experiencing problems can reach him at. The number is(801) 319-7178. They started the online store and between the business the got there and on ebay overwhelmed their stock. They are getting a phone line set up that will be posted on the store's site very soon. So if you are having a problem with your order give Sean a call and I hope you can get things worked out.

March 28th Cottage Update

Eddie had the day off and the sun was shining so we decided to head up and see the progress that was made since last week. WOW! A lot of work has been done. The foundation work is finished and the concrete floor in the crawlspace/basement has been poured. The new doors are installed. And drumroll please.........




The deck floor is up. The new back door has also been installed. They were beginning the work mudding and taping of the drywall. cannot wait for it to be finished. We hope it is all done by the time the former owner visits in mid-May. I hope Aunt Louise approves of the changes we have made.

Cottage Update

With Kim in tow we went to Lima to go to the first day of the closing sale for Scrapbooks.....very sad about this store closing. I got a lot of stuff there which included many of the new Tim Holtz stuff for Sizzix. We then stopped at the cottage to see what progress had been made. The new roof is on so they can start working on the drywall which was in the cottage. The water from all the rain did breech the seawall but not by much. The have got the back of the cottage jacked up and have started framing it. They should have the concrete poured in the lower part by the time we go up this week.The bottom picture is the only closet we have and is being bumped out by 6 inches.

ALL THINGS CRICUT

            DO NOT BUY FROM ALL THINGS CRICUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After receiving an email from a new company and I thought I would give them a try. I used a shop safe credit card number and because I needed the items by this weekend I paid the extra $2 for priority shipping. They failed on several things. They did not ship in one day. I got shipping notification at the end of the day Tuesday. I thought it was strange that it did not contain a tracking number. I contacted them Thusday when the  package did not arrive. I got a response from "Steve M." stating that they were having trouble getting the tracking numbers but their system was showing that it had shipped and I should receive it later this week. When I didn't get it on Friday I sent another email...no response from them. I also sent a message through their site and did not get a response from them. Now it is Saturday and still no package. I sent another email to them. If I do not hear from them first thing Monday morning I will be filing a claim with my credit card company and contacting the Orem. Utah police department. I spoke with my mail carrier about the package. He stated that There had been no packages for our house this week. I checked the email that was sent when I placed my order and it has my correct address.
