Hey, I thought you were sending to me....

Thursday is going to be a very different and hectic day for my wife and me.

We are doing a our jewellery stall at a fete that starts 8.00 in the morning and finishes at 12.00 midnight !

My wife has the day off, I have to go to work (my full time job).

Up at 4.00 am, help my wife set up, then off to work by 7.30 am. then finish at between 2.00 to 3.00 join my wife and stay till midnight, then spending an hour packing, walk a mile to the car park (roads all closed)
pack everything in the car, home hopefully around 1.00am to 2.00 am.

(20 to 22 hours total)
Going to be knackered !!!

Hope we sell lots of jewellery, as we had our busiest day this year last Saturday.

Have a look at the fete

Lorrea - WhatChaReadin'? (whatchatreadin) An Apology to all my Thriller Friends;

I have been a terrible moderator as of late. The kids are home for the summer, I have started a new work from home job and my husband just lost his. This past month has been crazy and hectic and I'm hoping in the next couple of weeks, I can get things back the way they should be. School starts on Monday!! I've popped in from time to time, but haven't really posted much. I feel as if I've missed so much and I have missed all of you!! I hope you will forgive me for my absence!

Lavada (kraftyvada) | 436 comments Welcome Back Lorrea!


message 1976: by Ty (new)

Ty Patterson | 401 comments Hey Lorrea, sorry to hear about hubby's job loss. Hope he gets one soon. Family, life and well being is significantly much more important than an Internet forum moderation!

You have nothing to apologise for.

Amber (amberterminatorofgoodreads) | 694 comments oh okay.


message 1984: by [deleted user] (new)

yeah


message 1985: by Amber (new)

Amber (amberterminatorofgoodreads) | 694 comments Sorry about that then. But there were links to go read the web serial I was doing it for on the thread there in the authors folder for it.


message 1986: by Holly (new)

Holly | 329 comments You're doing a Q&A Amber? That's cool. :)


message 1987: by [deleted user] (new)

I'm so busy, keeping up on this, focusing on senior year, homework, housework, whatever else gets thrown in (such as friends/family in distress) and everything else.


message 1988: by Amber (new)

Amber (amberterminatorofgoodreads) | 694 comments Yeah Holly. It was set for tomorrow. I was going to answer any writing questions and any questions about my AF web serial too here in this group but no one has posted any yet and I linked the serial where they could go read it at on goodreads and wattpad.


message 1989: by Holly (new)

Holly | 329 comments That's cool. Oh, sorry to hear that; that's a bummer.


message 1990: by Amber (new)

Amber (amberterminatorofgoodreads) | 694 comments Yep. Well if no one comes to ask me any questions tomorrow, I'll just do the fb event I did for it for friends and family and that'll be it. I know people are busy but they did participate in other member author Q&as here though.


message 1991: by [deleted user] (new)

later


message 1992: by Holly (new)

Holly | 329 comments That sounds like a good plan.


message 1993: by Amber (new)

Amber (amberterminatorofgoodreads) | 694 comments Thanks Holly. I think so too cuz when we signed up for the member Q&As, I volunteered for it but its not a Q&A if people don't check out what you have written and read it.


message 1994: by Holly (new)

Holly | 329 comments You're welcome. Yeah, exactly.


message 1995: by Amber (new)

Amber (amberterminatorofgoodreads) | 694 comments so is anyone coming to ask questions at the Q&A today? Just curious. had a few from two people but that was it.


message 1996: by Ter'e (new)

Ter'e Crow Lindsay (terecrow) | 798 comments When have I ever been so quiet? No, I am not sick. Getting ready to have our Open House.......and hoping this house will sell soon. have been packing up more boxes, cleaning out the kitchen cabinets and cubbies and cleaning closets. Goodwill loves us.

I read 5 pages at night and fall asleep. What a loser I am. thank the Lord I did not commit to the buddy read.

So far behind on messages and missing chatting to my buddies!!!!! Yes Skye Skye, that means YOU!!!!!! And Christine!!!!!

Did finish COP TOWN........it was good!!!!! Add it to your lists.

Hope everyone has a safe Labor Day weekend.


message 1997: by Lavada (new)

Lavada (kraftyvada) | 436 comments Ter'e I'm sure we all understand! It's not easy getting ready to move. Going to be exciting when you get closer! Still have to have that Sripper, Hooker convention!


message 1998: by Ter'e (new)

Ter'e Crow Lindsay (terecrow) | 798 comments Lavada.......you are such a sweetie!!!!! Certainly still have your sense of humor! Thats a great thing.
Bette tell the "new" folks........I'm the oldest hooker we have in this reading group!!!!! Lavada, with all her kids, is the resident Stripper!!!!
I hook wool primitive looking rugs and I think she strips furniture........but you never know about her.
LOL

Hoping and praying this house sells. Its a lovely FL home.........so we are hoping a "snowbird" will fall in love with it. I will throw one huge fit, if I have to unpack all these boxes!


message 1999: by Lavada (new)

Lavada (kraftyvada) | 436 comments Ter'e gotta keep laughing! Im a quilter like Eleanor Burns! me and my 14 year old Border Collie! I sew downstairs and when she thinks its time to go upstairs to bed she lets me know!
