    Important Note on Shipping:
    Due to the current global pandemic emergency, international shipping is taking much longer for delivery.  USPS has also been experiencing delays due to budget cutbacks.  Thank you in advance for your patience if the shipping time is longer than usual.  Regrettably it is out of my control.
