Fall festival recovery and angiograms

So we had a fairly successful festival with totals about 2500.  The fact I could set up on Friday with Bill and Wesley made it very convenient. We got to our venue early but met with Sandy and Stan across from the park at the Trader Joe parking lot. Sandy was sporting the usual mile high look in the back of her truck. Stan was driving the Bronco. Bonnie showed and then her daughter Heather. Wes thought the whole thing was interesting how everyone seemed to know each other. Like one big love fest. 

This was our mess for about the first two hours and then we managed to organize it. Thank goodness with Wesley he could do a lot of the back and forth to the truck. It was a win win situation. It is always fun to organize the chaos and then leave knowing everything is in place when you leave. 

About 5:00 pm we were done. 

 

 So we were off and running with hundreds of people in our midst. Constant flow of New Berry residents came pouring in to buy our wares. Credit card, credit card, credit card. Continuous flow. The feeders that I got from Lois and Gary Lee were a hit. I had 5 small ones of my own and then 30 larger. I came home with 7, we were known to have the cheapest deal on feeders.

When we were all said and done, Bill and I were exhausted and we were ready for home.         

Two hours of packing and we got everything possible in our trucks. Stan and Sandee, our neighbors in crime finished and were sitting wondering and lamenting why we do this. Especially Stan. I decided I learned two things, no giant items and limit how much stuff from others. We got home and then it was time to sack out for the evening.

Early the next morning I got up bright and early, walked the dogs. I unloaded the truck, washed it and moved on in my day. Got all my finances in order, made invoices for all involved, wrote checks. It was a long weekend and I was happy to just hang at home but instead we went to Don and Daisys to do some gun thing and help them move a stove into porch. Came home and he we just passed out.

 Monday morning bright and early Chris had an angiogram. Left home at 4 am to be ready for procedure at 6 am. It was a long process and although I thought I could run errands, it really wasn't the case. You were told not to be far since there might be decision I might need to make, etc... So I was strung out till 10:30 with that sort of excuse and then even longer in recovery. Room was filthy, roommate was crazy and we were ready to walk. By two we were finally allowed to leave. Nothing wrong with Chris and we have to just reconcile that he is healthy :)

Tired and ready for a nap we staggered in. Didn't stir  til the evening, but found the weekend coupled with the procedure just made for a long stint. Found new energy by Tuesday and we drove out the Lee Ranch.
