Ladies High Tea

Image
These past two years we have been involved in putting on a "Ladies High Tea" with a lot of entertainment!  We have groups of models, tap dancers and singing waiters!  It is quite a production but oh so worth it... We sold out in 9 days and learned we could have sold another 8 tables to the Red Hat Ladies.  We sell out to capacity and it is a lot of work.  256 tickets were sold and we could not fit another table in for anyone.  It is fun but oh so tiring... These folks are so talented and willing to perform for us all.  Makes it a lot of fun.  I share the Emcee responsibility and working behind the scenes.  

New Air Conditioner

Here it is in January and you may wonder why a new a/c unit at this time of year.  I am still wondering.  Not really, when we moved in a few years ago now we were told our unit was not working; well it was however it is 18 years old and our neighbor had a burn out with her heat stripes so thought it was time to just do it... so we now have a roof unit and it is much quieter.  Not sure we have any savings yet but nice to know it is done and another "project" we will not have to worry about again.

Happy New Year

Finally made it up to see son Roy and granddaughter Jay for Christmas.  Found the perfect spot for the Seahawk clock made from glass for Roy.  He had painted one of his rooms to be his "Seahawk" room.  Clock looks great there... we must think alike.. Jay was happy with her gifts as well.  She is doing wonderful with swimming and looks like we have another little grand that loves the water.   The holiday is over and glad we were able to do as much as we could with Earl coming down with fever in middle of it all.  Still we were able to spend time with friends and family somewhat... The new year is starting off with a bit of rain off and on all day but not too bad and goodness knows we need it so not complaining.
