Well, I'm off to the wholesale show. Hopefully I'll return with lots of new
ideas and new orders. The show is fun but very exhausting. This will be the first time that I'll be by myself. I
will miss Maria....a lot...but, nonetheless, you've gotta do what you gotta do. I am looking forward to the show.
I have a whole day with Ranger including, be still my beating heart, Tim Holtz. Will blog when I get back.

What a fun dayI had a great day today. Well, other than goofing up the e-mail newsletter and having
to resend it twice. Oh well, what can I say? I'm just not as sharp as I used to be. At any rate, today I did a class for
the senior citizen group in Dolgeville. We did an exploding card and it was a big hit. I think everyone was pleased with their
result. Cathy brought cookies, always a favorite with me, and then we went to the local coffee shop and continued the fun.
My husband prepared dinner. How great is that? Oh and the professional cleaners are coming on Thursday to begin de-stinking
our house. It does smell really bad. Wow this is a big deal...walls, rugs, furniture, ceiling, all of our clothes, paintings,
etc. everything in our home has to be cleaned with special chemicals. It's a heck of way to do a spring cleaning. The
good news is that I don't have to do it.

Sorry I haven't blogged since vacation. I came home to a mess. Our furnace exploded
and we have soot everywhere. Our cat is freaked and the house reeks (a little rhyme to keep me happy). At any rate, we are
working with our insurance company, estimators, etc. so I've been a little distracted. The store has been a real refuge...thank
heavens...clean air and things to play with. Monday night's stamp club was really fun. We did a shoebox exchange.
I really enjoy seeing other peoples' projects and then being able to make them. The ATC's are proving to be
really creative and wonderful. If any of you who aren't in the stamp club want to start swapping just let me know...I'm
thinking we could start an Inky Fingers ATC swap group. I am working on next month's class schedule. We've got some
really great projects and are going to be offering more Saturday and weekly night classes. Check out the Gallery page for
pictures of some of the classes.

Checking out the local Scrapbook storeWell, I finally made it to the local scrapbook store. I was kind of
disappointed. I didn't see anything that was new and/or different. Last year when I went there it seemed better.
I spoke with the owner and was told all the stores in the Savannah area had closed. That's about 45 minutes away from
Hilton Head. It's rather scary that so many stores have closed. It's a tough business. In fact the owner asked
me if I'd like to buy their store. I really appreciate all of your support. I am getting itchy to get home.

I don't want to make anyone jealous
Here I am in sunny and breezy Hilton Head. I haven't visited the local
scrapbook store yet, but as soon as I get my butt off the pool chair I'll go. I'll let you know if I find any new
treasures...I always find it interesting to see what other stores are doing. I steal ideas sometimes or other times just
look. Will let you know what my sleuthing discovers. Meanwhile, I am thinking of you all, but am glad I'm here.
