Hi Everyone!!
Long day.............cleaned in the morning and Jill and I went to the Bead/Jewelry Supply SHOW. Drove all the way over on the West side of town and almost had a stroke because the bldg was closed down and had a For Sale sign on it. Thankfully the organizers of the event put a sign up as to where the Convention Center was moved to. Only a mile West of the place. WOW.........it was a really nice new Center. Got some good deals on supplies. Jill and I both said we would only buy with CASH and set a limit. She used "Garage Sale" money.
Marcia and Carl: Have a great trip. Hope all you do out at the cottage is NOTHING!! E-mail me your phone number their and your cell# and if gas goes down next week I'll meet you for a early LUNCH!!
PH: I love Charleston, SC!! They have the best BOILED PEANUTS around. I'm glad you're going with Dennis to keep him company. He's putting in A LOT of HOURS and I'm sure he appreciates someone to keep him alert and have the company with him too. BE SAFE
SAN: If you meet up with NAV in a few days tell her we miss her on the boards already. Hope you all can still get to see each other.
HOPE THAT MATTHEW IS DOING BETTER AND WILL HAVE GOOD NEWS. How's the "BUD" kid???
To the rest of you lovely people I'm going over to the other boards and if they're working decently I'll just stay over there. This is too much work typing and checking two boards.
Anybody have any suggestions for a good vacuum cleaner. I tried out 8 of them at Lowes tonight and even the $459.00 Dyson wasn't to my liking. It made the most noise!! I think the good ole one I have is better than any new one. I just need to buy some more bags for it!! You know what they say: IF IT AIN'T BROKE ..........DON'T FIX IT!!
Tomorrow I plan on doing the WINDOWS OUTSIDE!! Then REST UP and get ready for the 50th blast.
This is my Godfather who is having this 50th Anniv blast and he fortunately is very well off, so not to sound "uppity" this should be REALLY REALLY NICE. I do know they're having a ethnic band and a Live regular band. Should be a good time. Since they have everything and NEED NOTHING but good wishes most of us going are giving a donation to our church for prayers for their health and their families health. They have a 41 year old dgtr that has CAncer and has been going through Chemo for over 2 years now to keep it from killing her. It's breast cancer, bone cancer and some other place too.
The nice thing about these people is that they give soooooo much to our church and other charities around the city. They have a home in Palm Spring and one here, but you wouldn't know that they had ten cents more than you or I. GREAT PEOPLE. He has supplied Winter Coats to one local Elementary School that one of our choir member was a Principal at until he retired this year.They did this for at least 15 years or more . They named the approach street to the front entrance of the school after him in honor of his generous dontation. Those kids never went without a Winter Coat.
Okay, enough about that.............there are many others in this big USA that are also as generious.
Have a fun weekend everyone.
