Busy Time


Christmas is coming! Christmas is coming! There is so much to do and so little time. Need to start cards, decorate the tree, put up lights etc. Not this week! Will do the tree at the church tomorrow. Today there is a meeting this afternoon at 1:00 and an alumni board meeting at 5:30. This morning I need to go to the printers to get the programs printed for our Republican Woman fundraiser on Saturday. Tuesday I will go to the church to do the tree and decorations in the Fireside Room. Wednesday I go to Breanne's and help with the babies and leave there by 3:00 so I can get home for a haircut. Thursday I am back at the church to finish up so somewhere between all of this maybe I can get something done at home. Then Thurs night we have a party (not here) for a group of friends that worked for American Cement when Bill was VP. Friday seems pretty good and then Friday night we go to dinner and concert at Chapman. Saturday is our big fund raiser and I have decorated 4 trees to put into the raffle. Trees are only 3' high so they aren't very big but still alot of work! We will have 30 trees decorated and sponsored by various businesses and individuals. They donate 100.00 and put 100lights and 50.00 worth of ornaments on it and then 100.00 of gifts beneath the tree. We have a luncheon and fashion show and seat about 350-400 women. We also have a opportunity drawing of 1000. cash. These women spend lots for the trees and hope that their tickets are drawn for the trees they choose. We do well and make 12,000-15,000 thousand each year.
It is a big event and I will be soooooooo glad when it is over. I can't believe that I said I would be co-chairman again next year! Crazy!!!!! Oh well life never gets dull at least not for me.
Next week-can't wait!!!!!!!
