Just a few more days…

The Bridal show is THIS WEEKEND! And I’m almost ready! There is still a lot of last-minute printing/wrapping to do, but that’s about it. Mom and I had a fun shopping excursion to get all the last “little touches” for the booth, and it’s all finally coming together in my mind now. We found a great little basket for the Door Prize we are supposed to offer, and I created a series of matching wrappers and labels for it last night so it’s almost done. I’ll try to post a picture or two when I have a chance.
I haven’t had a chance to even THINK about scrapbookin’ this weekend. My new schedule lately has been to work on LO’s on Sunday afternoons, but that didn’t happen yesterday. I was kinda bummed, because I have some great ideas for LO’s in my head, and I want to work on them before I lose them for good. I will just have to set aside a week or two to catch up after this show.
There are quite a few things, non-work and non-scrapbook related that I’d like to blog about, but I can’t seem to find the words and/or the time to get it typed. I can always tell when I’ve been slacking on my personal journaling, because my mind starts to whir and spin a million miles an hour. I haven’t used the blog for much personal journaling, because I’m still feeling out my comfort zone with blogging, but the more personal stuff is bound to start creeping in as I blog more often. I have a lot on my mind that needs to work it’s way out, in journaling of some kind, blog or not. Things like spiritual warfare and stress of living in las vegas, the difficulties of finding friends while living in a town like las vegas, raising my kids up in the way they should go (especially while living in las vegas). Yea.. there is a theme there, for sure. This might not be the best place for all that “blah” to come out, and I’m sure I’ll have to be guarded somewhat, but be forewarned that some of my posts in the coming weeks might not be all positive and upbeat as I work through some of this stuff. (Not that some of them posts in the past have been all that cheery, but you know… it might get worse, before it gets better).
In a little while Allan and I (with no kids!) are heading to Kingman for a little afternoon/evening excursion. At first glance, it seemed like a bad time to be heading out of town – what with all the last minute stuff to do for the show, but Allan and I desperately need some alone time where we can finish a conversation and just BE together. We’ll eat at our favorite restaurant (Cracker Barrel) for dinner, and hopefully get refreshed and re-energized because of our time together. I know I’ll be all the better for it, and accomplish MUCH more the rest of this week.
Ok, enough for now. While I’m waiting for Allan to come get me, I need to go print more wrappers and CLEAN UP MY OFFICE SPACE before I go INSANE! See ya on the other side of tomorrow!
