One day until opening

Past panic, I called the mall yesterday evening to see if I can open on Wednesday Novemeber 4th. They said no problem so I do have a little more time.

Morning:
I received some of my rhinestones late yesterday. Sallie did call last night to let me know she'd put the remaining package in the mail and that it should be arriving sometime this morning. Okay, I'm starting to feel a little better. I still have tons of stuff to do to get my display mall ready, with very little time on my hands, I have to beg borrow and steal, well maybe not steal but beg and borrow a car fast.

Today is Halloween and although we don't celebrate Halloween we usually have a Fall Harvest celebration at church and our kids are really excited about it. All week they have been anticipating this day, my Lia Pooh woke up with such glee in her eyes because she was going to get all dressed up. Little did any of them know, I hadn't gotten costume the first for today. I don't have time to have fun is what I keep thinking to myself and I DON'T HAVE A CAR!

Afternoon:
Whew, I did received the rest of my order earlier this morning so I'm planning on working on my samples and getting everything cut, and stored in it's proper place.

Brownie is going out with her "friend" and I can't take it. It's too much going on. I like to process stuff like this. I'm sure she's glad that I'm busy and dad just said he thought it would be fine. Big O even ask them to go pick up costumes...not sure if that was a good idea...need to process that too.

Okay, so Brownie made it back in one piece all smiles, and with the bag of costumes. She pulled them out of the bag and the little girls were sooo excited. When she told me what she paid for them I had to gasp for air, trying not to ruin the pure excitement the girls were having at that moment. OMG, we are broke we can't afford to spend $70.00 on food that alone costumes. This is something they are going to wear for 2 hours, if and only if we can find a ride. We are now $70.00 more broke and we don't even have a car to get them there.

We finally locate a friend who is going and is happy to pick up the girls and take them with her. Bless her she even took pictures. I felt horrible that I wasn't there with them, but they had a blast! They just wanted to go. Later when they got home I ask where the candy was and they said momma you didn't give us a bag to put candy in so we didn't get any. :( OMG of all the things to forget.

This day is gone with no real progress, $70.00 more in the hole, but I have happy kids that made it to the Fall Harvest Celebration . I guess that is progress huh.
