As you can see from the picture posted on the previous post, we have been extremely busy with our house renovation. No time for quilting, cooking, laundry or even making a bed in the morning. We have been busy taking things apart and now we are putting things together. This means that we are on the down side of the hill and should be done in time for the big event being held at our house on October 8th.
We are hosting the California-Hawaii Elks Association State President's V.I.P. cocktail party. I've been told we will have close to two hundred people coming for the party. This event is the pre-party to the dinner at the Hanford Elks Lodge that evening. The State President is Wayne Howard and he hails from Honolulu, Hawaii. Our local District State Vice President Earl Conro is making all of the arrangements for Waynes visit to our East Central District. Earl has described our home as the "Morrison Estate". So I hope all of the invitees will enjoy our little piece of paradise. Can you tell I'm starting to get a little excited about all of this.
The worst for me is that my two gardeners have not been able to work my property for over a month and will not be able to come back until the last week in September. They are an older spanish couple that come to my house every Friday to keep us tidy. The Mrs. had cateract surgery that did not go as planned, so she has been restricted from working. But they are planning to be back as needed the last week of September.
This Thursday Morrison's Silkscreen will have a booth space at the Thursday Night Market in downtown Hanford. We will be featuring our Letterman Jacket Line and giving a discount coupon. Then on Friday morning as early as I can possibly get myself going, I will be going to Pismo to join the Material Girls for a Quilting Retreat. I will come home on Sunday. Then the big push to be ready for the cocktail party.
Oh yes, tonight we will attend the Blues and Brews Festival in downtown Hanford. Then I want to slow down to a crawl.
About Me
- Kathy
- I am married to Steve for 32 years this year. He is definitely my true sole mate. We have a son, Rod, and Rod has a beautiful daughter Georgia, who is my sweetheart. Georgia is five and is in a foreign language institute (FLY) program at her school. The class is is taught in spanish only. She is doing very well and we are all so very proud of her. I seem to be a quilting dreamer these days. So many of life's tasks are keeping me away from my sewing machine. I have at least 4 unfinished quilts that are constantly tugging at me. This is the of the finished quilts.
