I just sent my convention schedule to my blackberry.

Geez, I'm such a techno-geek.

As far as Feast of Roses, my dress is undecided [although I need to take a potential dress to the cleaners in the AM - thanks for the reminder!]. I'm going shopping one more time on Thursday [this time in ATL] looking for an initiation dress. If something pretty just happens to catch my eye for Feast of Roses, that will be purchased, too. What budget?

Dress I have at the moment is a nice Sunday dress that could also double as a cocktail type dress, or so I tell myself. Last Feast of Roses the dress seemed to be anywhere from really nice Sunday dress to formal gowns.

I have a very standard "little black dress" for Feast of Roses, to be dressed up with jewels.

I'm going with the Initiation dress that I hate because I haven't found anything better. Oh well, maybe next time?

One week and counting...

I found my initiation dress at Gap on the clearance rack for $20...they had several colored pastels. Mine is a very fair pink....

I think I might head to Ross today...I always seem to find dresses for my curves there...for CHEAP! On second thought I have a 3/4 sleeve black dress that would probably be appropriate...can't hurt to look though :cool::D

Adding two more commitments to my Convention planner sheets... this is going to be my busiest Convention ever!

Doesn't have a planner, lol.;)

one more last ditch shopping effort tomorrow for convention clothes, including the ever illusive white dress!

me too!

It's almost time! One week from now, we'll be getting ready to go to Knibbe Ranch!

Tomorrow, I need to start packing to see what I can/can't fit into my suitcase so that it doesn't way 2 tons.;)

I'm still not convinced I've finished shopping. And I can't even imagine beginning to pack!

Although, I'll be packed by Monday night. I realized today that I have to leave home by 9 AM Tuesday morning.

I am packing tomorrow. Did you get the planning sheet for outfits? It helps a lot.

ETA: I forwarded it to you.

I got it from Nancy and from you... and I'm thinking I still have shopping to do. Wondering when...and where...

Laundry is happening. All travel items (including candy!) are purchased. See me at Ask the Experts in the Welcome Center on Friday before lunch to get candy :) (or to ask Risk Management questions, which is why I'll really be there) Or, come to one of my roundtables! Packing will commence when laundry is done!

Laundry is happening for me only because the kids are home from camp and they brought laundry with them!

Looks like one more shopping expedition is in order tomorrow evening. And the rate I'm going, the manicure/pedicure may need to wait until Wednesday morning in San Antonio! [Although I'm hoping I can squeeze it in tomorrow before I teach and deliver the kiddos to their dad]

Looking forward to seeing happy squirrels in San Antonio!

I may get a pedi Wednesday too, unless I find time tomorrow or Tuesday morning. I realized that I don't have to leave for the airport until 11.

I just have to pack jewelry and toiletries. I used to have all these big chunky bead necklaces and big chunky colored earrings in just about every color of the rainbow in the late 80's/early 90's. Then, my girlie played with them when she was into her "dress up" phase at 3 and 4, and they all got destroyed. Now, they are back in and I need some red. So, I think a trip to Target is in order. My Alpha Gam jewelry is easy to pack because I keep it altogether anyway. Since I mainly where it when I'm travelling, life is easier that way. I did realize that my Alpha Gam watch battery is dead :(. I might be able to drop it off to have the battery changed before the pedi on Tuesday morning... yep, that should work! It's my favorite watch, all Alpha Gam Italian charms with a watch face.. very fun.
