Everyone needs a little R&R now & then

Whew!

For the last few weeks we have been BUSY BUSY BUSY at LaDiff.
Different schedules, extra people, lots of great customers and even more activity, added up to a great 30th anniversary event AND a whole lot of fatigue when it was all over.

What's the best way to recharge?

Do NOTHING. And I mean absolutely NOTHING. For the last 4 days, the president of LaDiff, the empress of LaDiff (aka the daughter), and I have enjoyed a whole lotta nothing on the banks of the Rappahannock River.

This kind of do-nothing-vacation is right up my alley: 2 hour naps (at 10:30 in the morning no less), walks with the dog, drives around the area, doing puzzles (and more puzzles), playing Charades, Crazy 8's and Go Fish, eating ice cream (yum), and watching not one but two thunderstorms roll across the river... the perfect way to rest and recharge.

With all of the excitement on our plate for fall (new merchandise, new hires, new designs), it's a darn good thing we've rested!






...p.s. Happy Birthday, Mom!

Independence Day at LaDIFF

Guest Blog by Juliette Heydenrych

Well, it's getting to be about that time of year again- and as those hot summer days usher in warm summer nights, we've been spending time in the cool air conditioning at LaDIFF bustling around with heaps of customers. We love seeing all the NEW faces and having lots of old friends stop in, too.

In the midst of our pleasantly crowded 30th Anniversary & Remodeling Sale, a lot of folks have been wondering- will we be having our usual 4th of July Sale? And of course, to them we say, this is IT! We're constantly marking down prices and putting new items of the floor, but don't fret- we're still cooking out on Sunday.

Here's a snap Sarah Paxton took at Costco, just before loading up the car with all the yummy goodies we'll be feasting on Sunday the 4th:

(What isn't shown here is the giant chocolate cake we devoured in celebration of our July birthdays here at LaDIFF! Delicious....)

So, YES we are open on Sunday, July 4th, from 11am to 5pm (that's an hour earlier than usual on Sundays!) and we're firing up the grill at noon. And YES, we'll be OPEN on Monday the 5th, from 10-6pm. (Be sure to check our website for our store hours, they might not be what you're used to from us!)

Of course, it's not all about free food and fireworks... we still have a ton of great deals and amazing bargains to be found throughout the store. Mozey on over to our Facebook page to check out the full albums, but here's a sneak peek at what's new and what's marked down lower than your great Aunt Celia can limbo;





Hurry in, the SALE ends SOON!
