An hour of work....my favorite day was today

Actually...it wasn't even an hour. We sat there for an hour...then went home. We only changed towels in one room and waited for everyone else to start moving. They did...finally...and nobody wanted anything!! They are all here for a week...10 rooms of them. Every other day would be fine with me! All of these folks are from France/Germany/Portugal...art students studying the Big Bend area. Lucky them. I mean...lucky us...they are used to staying in hostels and don't require much maintenance. We don't like to provide maintenance. What a balance.

So I came home...watched Las Vegas...both of them...and have been making jewelry all afternoon. Very productive. I also called about a craft show. The Women's Club of Alpine is sponsoring a show during the Relay for Life weekend. It's in conjunction with the Go Texan program in Texas which highlights Texas Artists and Craftsmen. Even though it's held outside and weather is so unpredictable...I want to do it. They had a show last year and the weather was bad so they had to postpone it...and then the rescheduled show was also postponed due to...you guessed it...bad weather! I don't care.

I am taking a break right now before I get a full fledged headache. It's hot tea time. And Cheers is on.

I have an order to finish...and it's frustrating me. I had a delay from the buyer a while back...but it was good as they sent me their designs. It's just taking more time than I thought it would on my part. I have a few assembly issues to figure out.

I was looking through some of the craft stuff I have and found the patterns that I wanted for felt ornaments. I have a lot cut out, but had to stop when my eyes were giving me so much trouble. I may cut some out later. I feel a little Christmasy.

And the Internet went out at 9:30 last night!! ALL NIGHT!! I had almost everything done that I needed/wanted  to do...short of printing...and since I couldn't access anything on the Internet it really didn't matter...I just read.

Husband is cooking me supper. (He doesn't know how long I worked today...he thinks I'm exhausted...so let's keep this bit of information between us...OK?) He cooks me supper almost every night...and I am eternally grateful.

Might be back later...
