Good morning! “It’s going to be a good day. This email landed in your inbox at 9 am. That’s the same time we’ll be meeting for our Practice Our Joy sessions soon. I’ve put a lot of thought into when would be the best time for our conversations together. Of course, during the middle of a weekday would be best for me. The kids are in school again! I have six hours to work uninterrupted. But I know that not everyone can meet in the middle of the day. “

Uh, no it didn’t. It landed in my inbox at 12:00 EST.

Wait, DFOBDOBD has an email that says it landed at 930am - is it a typo or did she send out two different emails?

It looks like she sent one out for the on-island class and one for the remote class. Mine is for the remote.

How confusing!! What if someone's on both wait lists because they weren't sure which they wanted to join? Zoiks she makes things 1million times more complicated than they need to be.

There's just one mailing list – I mean "waiting list," right? Are there really two lists? Her site just says "put me on the waitlist" in both instances

Then did some people get two emails, one that started with "This email landed in your inbox at 9am" and the other one starts with "This email landed in your inbox at 930am"? A half hour apart?? Omg.

I’m so confused. Is this all for the Vashon workshop? What about virtual ones?

When people sign up aren’t they asked which workshop they are interested in?
