The weekend has come and gone;it's Monday and I'm tired! Since Friday afternoon I have been on the go. I had grocery shopping and cooking to do Friday night and then went out to eat with the hubby and mother-in-law Friday evening to my favorite place - Romano's Macaroni Grill. Saturday I was at a seminar and met my friend Carey before it got started at 10:00 to do some catch up, as in, "what have you been doing" time. Then we saw lots of friends we hadn't seen in a while, caught the first hour seminar, and then went out to eat at a great place, Sweet Tomato. Carey, Erica (a new friend, I hope) and I had a great lunch and took 2 hours doing it. Lots of fun, fun, fun.
After an afternoon session I went to my mother-in-law's to visit with visiting family and especially to see my niece who was visiting. Then I went home and just died.
Back up early the next morning to finish more cooking and to the Down The Street Bead Show to take 2 classes with Kim St. Jean - she's like my favorite teacher. I made a bangle bracelet and a funky ring and learned lots of new techniques. I'll have pictures tomorrow. I always have fun at bead shows but they a killer on my pocketbook.
Then after my last class, ended at 3:00 or so, I went back to the mother-in-law's to help the rest of the family begin packing a lifetime of dishes for shipping to other relatives or the Dunwoody Holiday Festival. My mother-in-law is being very proactive about finding new circumstances for herself and is actively seeking a new community that will provide her with an environment that won't have stairs. She has a little knee trouble and wants to make sure she can get around OK at all times. We can't keep up with her schedule now.
We packed until about 7:30 then had dinner and I got home about 9:00 unpacked my goodies and that was it until this morning. The alarm went off the first time and I said, no. The alarm went off the second time, I said no. The alarm went off again and I said - I have to. So, I'm off and running again.
I'll be preparing for the jewelry repair party on Saturday every evening this week. Lucky me, my friend Colleen is going to help me on Friday to get the house in order and then during the party on Saturday. Busy, Busy, Busy,
More later......
