Exciting news, Seattlites!
If you’ve been keeping up or have seen me at any point in the last several months, you know that I have, sadly, gotten divorced, but that I am doing my darndest to make the best of a shitty situation. It might all be sad, but it’s not all bad.
One of the best perks is that I have now been able to get myself an apartment in downtown Seattle, in the First Hill neighborhood, and I’m getting settled in nicely. It’s homey, it’s cozy, and it’s mine…and I’d love to welcome my lovely clients into my new humble abode!
My one caveat is that you will also be meeting my adorable dog, so if you have allergies, you’ll want to pump that Flonase before you come over. Walter is half Frenchie, half Boston terrier, so he does have short hair, but he still sheds to some degree. He is also trained, but, if you’ve ever met a Frenchie before, you know they tend to have selective hearing when it comes to obeying commands, so you’ll have to accept my apologies ahead of time for any exuberance with which he greets you, or if he tries to sniff your face while you lay on my floor, etc etc. I do my best to keep him otherwise occupied while I have clients over, but I can make no guarantees that he will be on his best behavior. Sorry. *shrug*
What about Tacoma?
Tacoma will always have my heart, but I’d rather it not have my rent money while I’m simultaneously paying Seattle rent. This means that, unfortunately, once the lease is up this July, I will not be re-signing it. It’s possible that, if my studio partner maintains the space, I may be able to rent it from her by the hour (based on her availability, of course) for certain established clients, but it will not be as easily accessible to me as it has been to this point. Apologies to any clients for whom this adds complications to your ability to scratch your foot fetish itch, but them’s the brakes, I’m afraid. Divorce sucks, and its repercussions are unfortunately felt even by those on the periphery of the people directly involved, and this is just how that pans out for you south Seattle folks, sadly. If you’d like to get in at the Tacoma studio one or two (or three) last times before I let her go, get yourself booked ASAP!
Thank you <3
I do want to say a heartfelt thank-you to all my clients, new and established, who have supported me in this whole awful transition period, with words, gifts, and business. Y’all are lovely humans, and you’ve kept me going and even kept me from panicking at times. And to my two oldest clients who were willing to be my guinea pigs in the new apartment and were so gracious as we waited to see how the dog would do– you’re the best a gal could ask for. You know who you are. Much love.
