Have weekends where all you want to do is CREATE... PLAY....SCRAP???
Well that's what i am feeling.... but has it happened NO ...lol
Yesterday i spent the morning cutting fabric all ready to get sewing last night....But it never happened... Friends dropped by...lol.. Don't get me wrong i LOVE catching up with friends... but just not when i am soooo itching to PLAY!!...
Then Mark goes and invites friends over for a BBQ TODAY!!!... another day gone.. and then.... yes all true.... Mark and some friends are going to start the new patio tomorrow (if the rain holds off) so yet another BBQ and friends.... so looks like no creating for me this weekend....lol...
and my fingers are so ready to go.. my head is full of ideas....i really just want to hide in my scrap room in my trackies for two days and just have FUN!!!... oh well there is always next weekend.....lol
This is what i done yesterday morning.. 96 squares all cut out!!!... i didn't find this fun at all...lol...
and my table runner all layed out on my table ready to piece together... and there is NOWAY i am moving that today.. took me forever to get the look i wanted...LOL..
we will just have to eat around it!!!!....
Thursday i was up at the shop... just doing a bit of cleaning.... new tickets and learning how to use the pricing machine... We stock the supermarket next door.. and IGA.. and they have to have certain pricing stickers on the meat packs... boy that machine is tricky... i have a book full of notes which i hope to type out this weekend and stick it to the wall... so i never forget...lol...
Mark is still stressing about everything... but i keep trying to tell him its going to be a slow process to get the shop looking the way we want it... first job is to re-tile the whole floor... but trying to figure out the best weekend (so we don't have to close) is becoming the hardest part!! Then our new counter will go in... (its sitting in Micks garage ATM) and them hopefully cover the walls in stainless steel.. a lot cleaner than tiles....i don't think all this will be finished b4 Christmas... I will take some photos soon and share!!!
The invites are all printed and on there way...Now its just getting ready for the party..lol.... We are getting the spit from the shop.. with one of our staff to cater it for us.. (this includes salads) and as said above Mark has decided its right now we have to extend the patio... it better be finished b4 the party.. or there will be blood..lots of blood.....lol....
Oh well... better go.. clean the house for our guests and then off to golf with Keenan...
I hope you all have a great WEEKEND... whatever you get up too...
Take care
Connie.....xxxx

Hi Connie,
Finally had a chance to catch up on all your news. I'm in awe of your sewing projects, you go girl!
I'm a bit shocked about your new meat packing job! The things we do for love, hey! I'm sure Mark will appreciate it anyway.
Good girl for making more of an effort with your invites!lol They look lovely.

You really have the sewing bug - better send all my half finished projects to your place.
It's always an eye-opener when you open a business.
Good luck with it all (and hope the patio is finished!)
