You know the phrase "hold onto your butts"? That's where I am! π€£π
The next two weeks are my two busiest weeks of the entire year! I love the chaos, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't exhausted!
Here's what my next two weeks look like:
Thursday night 11/13- Friends and family night as we prepare to open Christmas Cottage for the season!
Friday 11/14- Christmas Cottage opens! I'm a new vendor this year, and am absolutely thrilled to be one of the vendors at this awesome pop up shop! I'll be working the opening shift that morning!
Saturday 11/15- Vendor Fair at McKinley Elementary in Davenport, IA. Support a local school and come see me from 9-2!
Sunday 11/16- Afternoon shift at Christmas Cottage
Tuesday/Wednesday 11/18-11/19- Morning shifts at Christmas Cottage
Thursday 11/20- Go get my Iowa license (finally- and the *day* before it expires) π€¦π€£
Friday 11/21- Happy Birthday to me! π₯³ππ I'm definitely slowing down now right?!? Nope, making the drive back to the Chicago suburbs to set up for Christmas Crossroads! This will be my third year at this Lockport, IL show and it's a fantastic, long-running show I'm thrilled to do every year!
Saturday and Sunday 11/22-11/23- Christmas Crossroads vending! Plus, it's the last two days to check out Christmas Cottage back in Iowa!
Whew! Just typing it all out makes me sleepy! I have more coming after these two weeks, this isn't the end of my year, but I'll talk about that later! π
I'll post some more details up about these events in pictures or comments. If you see me, please offer caffeine! ππ
