Last week was very hectic. We had more parents coming in the end of the week with their registration forms in hand. It was the usual--I have to do this again? (well yeah we tell you this every year) actually twice cause the same thing happens for the summer camps. DUH
I think in three days time there were more than 130 forms that we took in. In person and mail
Over 400 in a two and half week span.
By Friday, I was exhausted. I had been sleeping badly, dreaming wierd dreams and waking up with a monsterous headache every day. I was so looking forward to leaving a little early so we could get down to WV at a decent hour. That didn't happen. Poor Stephanie, she was our ticke-tron person all day. That in itself was a hard thing to do. The phone was ringing off the hook. I was mumbling to myself for the last hour we were there. Several times, people were lined up ten deep at both windows.
I wanted to tell her that I was not gonna answer the phone anymore.
Five o'clock came and I flew out the door. Didn't really even say goodbye to each person, just bolted out the door. I got home and was packed in about fifteen minutes. Hal and I got on the road and asked our GPS (Rhonda) what way she was wanting us to go. She wanted us to go down past Strasburg and Harrisonburg Va all the way down to Staunton, Va. Well, the end time was 5 hours, so we said lets try it. Little did I know that one part of the road was very poorly marked, very VERY twisty, turny and I was braking more than I was using the gas pedal.
It was raining, foggy and I ended up singing very badly to a CD just so I could make it to the end of the line!!!!!! We ended up driving a total of six hours. Unloaded the car and talked with our friends from midnight till 2am.
We had a great time. It was very relaxing being there. Had a chance to make some more floral arrangements using some unique things.
I had had a great time shopping for the dried flowers. It is such fun to see what is available and what I think I can do with the items available.
We found out that the Guinnea hens had a couple of babies. it was so cute to see them flying around and sitting up in the trees.
At one point, Carol and I went out to get a few things and then decided to let Rhonda lead us back down the road to a certain point. It seems that a lot of people end up coming down their lane and we were wondering what the GPS was telling them. We followed Rhonda but as we were getting closer to the lane to get to their home, I kept saying, when do you turn back? When do you question whether the directions should be questioned? I would think that when the road turned to gravel with a few mailboxes on the side of the road and you were looking at three gravel lanes, wouldn't you say to yourself, HUMMMMM maybe I should turn back????? Well, we figured that because some places have not been updated with 911 information, some of the directions were to be questioned. In fact, when Hal and I were coming home we ignored Rhonda a few times because we knew she was trying to take us down a few back roads that really would not cut any time off. It was funny to hear her recalculate and then the end time would lower too.
We got home in 5 hours.
It was a very relaxing weekend but not long enough. I went to bed at about midnight each night and woke up at 9am feeling refreshed.
Then the craziness started all over again on Tuesday
I really hate winter, but I cannot wait until our trip to go cruising and enjoying the land with lots of WDW lovers.
They made sure I knew after that 
My goal is to get the eating under control this week and get through all my withdrawl. Next week I need to add exercise.
) It works for them, though!
