Long time no word from me.
We've been home for a month and a half, but we just needed time re-adjusting to normal life.
Finally, after 86 days in hospital, we brought Eva home. She is good and thriving. We both thank you for the messages, prayers, comments and words of encouragement!
This post is actually about something else.
Back in April, I received a mail from etsy notifying me that all Macedonian shops on etsy will be permanently closed on August 5, as etsy payments is still not in use in my country. Or what they said and I quote: "We’ve made the difficult decision to stop supporting standalone
PayPal. Unfortunately, we can’t bring Etsy Payments to Macedonia right
now, so your shop will be closed on August 5."
Good thing is that they gave us plenty of time to make the necessary changes, bad thing is that they probably haven't thought of having a plan of getting us reinstated when, let's say, they start etsy payments here in 2036. What do we do then? Start from scratch? I've been on etsy for 15 years and have 11K sales. We'll see what they respond (if that actually happens).
Whatever. I have already set up a Shopify shop and I am currently transferring all my listings there. I'll notify you when it is open. My ravelry and lovecrafts shops will continue working.
