We start the day around 6:30, with coffee in the living room. The dog is fed and she's chillin while I have my coffee. That blue box contains fall decorations that my daughter plans on putting on the shelves you see against the wall.
It was quite foggy when I left the house around 8:45 to attend a Promotional Products trade show across town.
The show happens twice a year, and it's a lot of fun. There are hundreds of vendors who display all kinds of gifts and promotional items that companies can buy to have customized with their logos. I was looking for client gifts and a family reunion item too. Here's a shot inside the vendor hall:
I left the show and got home - The sun was out, and you'd never know that we're bracing for a major hurricane in 2 days. Turns out, the storm has taken a more southernly path and we're not going to bear the brunt of it, as originally thought. Still - they're expecting quite a bit of rain, some flooding, high winds and downed power lines, so I'm getting as much paperwork done as possible, in case we lose power!
This is my office, which is in the room that's behind the two windows on the right as you're facing the house:
Around 3:00, I made a quick run up to the grocery store to get something to cook for dinner, and you can see the empty shelves where everyone had purchased bottled water:
My daughter gets home from work around 5, and she always comes into my office to chat. Today, she Face-timed my husband, because he's out of town.
Dinner was good! I made LOW CARB CHICKEN AND MUSHROOMS and then watched some TV and did some laundry.
I took a hot bath and used one of my nice clean towels 😀and went to sleep at 11:30.
Not a super-exciting day, but at least you got a glimpse of what goes on in my world on a normal day! Please keep us and our neighbors in North and South Carolina in your thoughts and prayers as we weather Hurricane Florence! She's one that won't be soon forgotten.
Till next time,
