Friday Meanderings

Happy day after Thanksgiving.

The official beginning of the Christmas Season!

I don’t join the masses on Black Friday.  I can’t think of anything worse!

Today I will be going through the holiday decorations and getting ready for the The Most Happiest Day of the Year!

Cookie Day!

Got family coming in next Friday for an early Christmas Celebration and cookie baking!

Yippee!

Got some sewing to finish up before they get here.

 

And got a bunch of festival t-shirts to get shipped out!  If you ordered a festival t-shirt after we ran out, they are here!

Hope you have a great weekend!

 

 

 

Just a moment from a day

I’ve been missing taking photos and having somewhere to put them.  So I thought a few weeks ago I’d try uploading a photo a day.  Just happened that I met several dogs and was able to post them.  But then I got sidetracked–again.  Okay.  I accept it.  I’ve got too much stuff going on that takes precedent over this website.

But I will put up special photos when I get a chance.  And I’d like to give a little background on today’s picture.

Terry and I volunteered at a run last Saturday.  The Water Safe Citrus Inaugural 5k/10k/1 mile walk put on by the non-profit Cayla’s Coats. There were about 150 participants.

This is one of the organizations that I always try to support.  Little Cayla drowned in a canal off of the Homosassa River not far from my house when she was 19 months old.  To honor her, initially their church started collecting and donating coats in her name.  Now the non-profit, run by Cayla’s parents who also have full-time jobs, uses money donated to the organization for swimming lessons and buying life jackets and coats for children in Citrus County.

Enough said.

I made it through another festival!

Yippee!

Here’s a photo of Terry and me at the Homosassa Arts, Crafts, and Seafood Festival.

Still alive and kicking and ready for a bit more relaxed weekend.  Only one volunteer function on Saturday.  And that’s very early and we aren’t running it!  We are handing out packets and helping with food prep at the Cayla’s Coats Water Safe Citrus 5K/10K/1 mile.  Once upon a time I would have done that 10K but I think volunteering is a better idea!

And here’s a snap of the skirt on the stage!  It held up the entire weekend.  Want to eventually do something a little better than velcro but I’ve got a whole year to procrastinate on that!

I made the decision on ordering the shirts and posters.  Both are very cool.  Last year we didn’t sell many of the shirts but sold out all the posters in about an hour.  So I halved the shirt order and quadrupled the poster order.  This year we ran out of shirts Saturday afternoon and I have 146 posters left.  Think someone else needs to take over that job!

I ordered more shirts so if you want one, let me know!  $15 for short sleeve, $20 for long sleeve.

They are really cool shirts!

Hey, Thanksgiving is next week!  Time to get out the fat pants!  Yikes!

Have a great weekend!
