Mayfaire Sunday...
I posted enough photos yesterday, so didn't even take any today....they would just be more of the same.
Happy Mother's Day to everyone who raised or helped to raise young'uns! I hope you are having a nice day!
Joe and I will go to Peking House for dinner tonight, when Mayfaire ends. He was here and took me to lunch. I got a skewer of coconut shrimp, which were good - but there were only three on the stick and it cost $8.00!! Good grief! I don't want to eat much, anyway, since we will get Chinese for dinner, but a couple more shrimp would have been nice for the price!
I sent Joe home around 1:00. He doesn't need to hang around here - I'm in my office getting lots of work caught up, which is a very good thing, since we will be gone for two weeks at the end of the month (only one week to go!). I'll call him when I leave here, and he will meet me at the restaurant. That will work just fine, since it is about half-way between the Museum and home. Going to Peking House, after Mayfaire, has become a tradition for us. Actually, going to Peking House at any time is kind of a tradition with us!! LOL
I started laundry last night, and we did not go to Lake Mirror for the Saturday nite party and fireworks. Once I got home, all I wanted to do was park it. Our PR person told me this morning, that there were around 12,000 people there!! It was a nice evening for it. The operations team (who work for me) didn't get done until nearly midnight, and they were back here at 6:30 this morning. They are younger than me, thank goodness! And it is only once a year, but it's still a killer. Bless them!
My knees held up pretty good yesterday. I didn't walk far today, but they are still doing okay. Minimal pain, and I don't feel any fluid building up. Yeah!!
I need to go see if they need anything in the Museum tent. The t-shirts are selling well!
Again - wishing you a wonderful Mother's Day/Sunday!!! Peace, love & hugs.

Terri, I'm glad you had a successful event and a Happy Mother's Day!
ReplyDeleteXO,

Pretty soon, you can sit down and sigh and sigh that it is over for another year and a success.
ReplyDeleteGlad your knees held up for you with minimal pain sweet Terri. Praying for the day when you will have no pain in them. Hugs
ReplyDeleteSo happy your knees didn't bother you too much. Good luck getting caught up with things before you're off.
ReplyDeleteI've been watching your Mayfaire updates on Facebook and it looks like it has been a very successful weekend! That is so great that your knees held up! I agree..you should have gotten at least 2 more pieces of shrimp for that price :-) But after a long day, I bet it sure tasted good! Thanks so much for the Mother's Day wishes, it was a nice day. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteGlad Mayfaire is going well. Looks like a fun time. Yikes on $8 for 3 shrimp. Have a great Monday!
ReplyDeleteThat shrimp sounds good but like you said... yikes! The price was a little too steep for the average person. I'm glad the weekend went well for all concerned. Sounds like a great turnout. ** For your coming trip to Ohio... I'd suggest a jacket and slacks, but also some light summer clothes. They're telling us Tues. could be 81°. But the evenings will be down in the 50's. So we don't know what the following week will be like. Crazy weather.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the weather update, Carol. I'll bring a sweater and a jacket, just to be on the safe side.
