Monday night ball practice….what is it about girls and T-ball? All Miss B wants to do is turn cartwheels in the outfield.
Tuesday night - 12 giggly girls including 5 moms, 5 little girls and 2 teenagers went to see High School Musical on Ice. Oh the joy and squeals. And that was just from the moms. We had a blast! You should have seen the faces when Zac’s shirt got ripped off. Graisi singing along was priceless! Ami and Lauren singing along renewed my faith in teenagers. They are little girls at heart! This mom enjoyed every minute of it. After getting home and packing the car at 9:00 PM - it was off for Perdido Beach. My friend and I drove half way. Not too bad - got there by 12:00 that night.
Wednesday - off on the final leg of the journey for Perdido. Got there by lunchtime. Started scurring around like a little beaver. Worked until my feet hurt. Everything was coming together perfectly for the conference. The President’s Reception that we had worked so hard on - was fabulous. The $3,000 shrimp were WONDERFUL and I made sure each one of them were eaten before the night was over.
Thursday - continued to work like a little beaver. Up very early to make sure the breakfast was correctly done. It was - the staff at the hotel was great! Day went great. My feet were KILLING me! Dinner that night at the Oyster Bar on the Intercoastal Waterway. GOOD FOOD and good times. I laughed at my very silly boss and his ability to eat fish!
Friday - not as busy as the other two days - but still alot of behind the scenes stuff going on. Started not feeling too hot, but the show must go on, so on I went. Realized - I was seeing the beach, but not enjoying the beach. We decided this is a torture conference. You can see the beach, feel the breezes and smell the air - you just can’t enjoy any of it.
Saturday - finished up the main part of the conference. Reveiwed the bill….OH MY GOODNESS!!!! SWEET MERCY!!!!!! Glad it wasn’t coming out of my checkbook and you thought I was kidding about the $3,000 shrimp. Loaded up the car. Headed north. Got dropped off in Montgomery. Met the family at my brother and sister-in-law’s. Visited for oh, let’s say, 30 minutes. Got in the truck….headed Northeast. Went to the in-laws. Bedded down for the night.
Sunday - Celebrated birthday with my mom-in-law. Got in the car - headed north. Made it back in time for Chi Alpha. H had his CHIC class, the first step towards baptism. Was at church until 7:30. At 7:45 FINALLY walked into my VERY CLEAN!!!!! house. Crawled in my bed and slept the night away only to get up Monday morning and start all over again.
Luckily - this week doesn’t hold the schedule of last week. Looks to be a little less eventful. I need that - I don’t feel too hot.
Hope your week is wonderful and uneventful and full of good times!
