Too Little Sleep but SO Much Fun!

Oh my gosh do I sound like a broken record yet? I had a lot of fun despite the lack of sleep! Friday was crop night at my house! We had a great time and everyone was kind enough to leave early (just past 11pm) knowing that I had to pack all my stuff so I could vendor at a crop in Sarasota on Saturday. The first picture is of my setup at the crop in Sarasota! By the time I got everything packed and ready and managed to fall asleep it was 3:30 am and I had to be ready to go out the door at 7:15am. For some weird reason I woke up at 5:30 and managed to get a cat nap in between then and 6am. I did have a great time at the crop but according to my friend Janie, I was more talkative than she had ever known me to be, and she's now known me for a year and a half! Probably my body's way of keeping me awake! She said I wasn't bad, but she is a generous soul! Thank goodness she drove and was there to help me load and unload and load and unload again!

We also managed to visit two of the 15 LSS included in the Tampa Bay Scrapbook Treasure Hunt, Scrapbooking Memories and K2. Both stores are within about 7 minutes from each other in Sarasota, and you'd wonder how they manage to survive, but they do, at least so far. It may be because of the difference in their styles.

I had great plans to sleep all day Sunday, but we all know why they are called plans! Hubby woke me up at 8:30 am new time and just when I thought I could go back to sleep, a friend of mine called to tell me that she was finally starting work in a new restaurant. So hubby and I went and had lunch as a show of support.

Today Monday, Janie and I got together and visited 4 stores. Violettes in Lakeland, Sew and Scrap, Scraptorium and one of my favorites, The Scrapbook Shoppe in Tampa. We had a great time and got home somewhere around 4:30pm. Tomorrow i have to get to Scrap Happy and then back to Scrapbook Memories where I had a couple of racks put aside for me on Saturday. Aside from all of that, over the past few days, I have chatted with two people that have organized scrapbook cruises, paid the bills, fed the kitties, done 6 loads of laundry, cleaned and messed up the house, finished a mini album and 2 layouts and somehow managed to enjoy all those moments which we all know, are precious because... they only come once!
