I have to get up in 5 1/2 hours because at 8:00 tomorrow morning I have to set up a display booth at a community event, then present a workshop in front of God-knows-how-many-people.  Oh, and I have to be awake for all that.  Funny how that expectation is just built-in. 

Today was a busy day.  I had to pack (okay that took all of about 10 minutes) and then put in an appearance at my office.  I checked my email and then completed an important team-building activity with one of my employees.  Our youngest associate is 18 years old, still in college, and this morning she brought in her x-box DDR pad so we could hook up both of our pads and challenge each other.  OMG that was fun!  She creamed me of course but on one song I actually beat her!  (”You won because the tempo was so slow, I can’t do slow” is what she said.  I don’t care!  I still won!  Heheheh.)

Okay so after that I picked up my rental car and put all my stuff in it - including my husband, he definitely fits under the category of “my stuff,” lol.  I love it when he can come with me on these trips.

We took our time driving to the hotel (107 miles that took us 4 hours), making pit stops for a really late lunch and a little side-trip for shopping.  Once settled into our hotel room, we headed directly for the pool.  It was great, we had it all to ourselves.  Later, we took a nice long walk down the street in this unfamiliar town and stopped for a late dinner at a diner.  People stared at us, I’m not sure why.  One little girl even came over to our table to stare at us close-up.  I said hi and she smiled and shyly waved.  Her mother came over and apologized and led the girl away.  I’m thinking they don’t get too many strangers in this town.  Which is weird considering the local population is almost 40,000.  *Shrug* 

Now hubby is snoring and I am still UP!!!  I need to get my butt to bed.  G’night!
