Whole lotta teething going on....
and crying, and crankiness, and earaches tonight,
but I'm excited watching the election results and can't wait for E to get home
from the Board of Elections (he has to work there resolving disputes every
election day as part of his job) so I can watch the results come in with another
grown-up - though I did teach Georgia the names of the candidates tonight on the
way home. : )
Still a bit disappointed about our last craft show - based on the first hour, it would have been a great show, but then the skies opened up, the outside vendors practically blew away (lots of broken tents and ruined merchandise- yikes!) and we spent the day under the big top tent with the other vendors talking to the few brave souls who came out and chatting with each other. I came out 30 dollars in the hole, which stings, but there's no controlling the weather. I'm looking forward to my next show - and better weather! I'm also looking for some more shows since I definitely have enough inventory given last week's turn out. I applied for the big BUST sponsored show in NYC - very competitive, and pretty pricey, but if I'm accepted I'll be there in a second. It's in Penn Plaza, and from 10-8, so I'm pretty confident I'll come away with a nice profit, even after the sizable entry fee.
Our four! remaining chickens are doing well, and E and I will get the barn ready for the new arrivals this Thursday - there's a chance the turken (aka naked neck) chicks may come in tomorrow, but E will be out of court by the afternoon, so he should be able to cobble something together,. The other 150 will come around the 12th. We're hoping to try to get our new doe this Friday - we got lost last time and missed our appointment time, so went to the zoo and Ikea in Philly instead. Happy Election Night All!
