Daily Notes 08-01-2006

I’ve updated the Baharain album with the photos that Eddie has sent over the last few days. You will love the purple bedroom photos and the pictures of his drive from work are interesting as well. I was surprised that there wasn’t more traffic and people as I thought this was a busy island. Guess that all depends on which part of it you’re on.

Ken got home last night around 11:00 pm. There was over an hour delay in getting around Knoxville and traffic narrowed down to 1 lane, and since this was right at rush hour, there was nothing he could do. We waited until this morning to unload the furniture. I really like it. I had forgotten that it is also a bit higher and firmer than our other couch and loveseat, and this makes it easier for me to get up out of it.

Working from home today. Just trying to get caught up from the last 2 weeks of costing reports. Now we have an emergency of a tech who’s gone AWOL. Must be pretty serious as they are cutting everything off which isn’t the norm. The last time something like this happened, two of the techs went to Mexico to buy marijuana (in the company vans!) and were arrested and jailed. There is always something going on 🙂

Janet’s girls passed their CGC’s and Janet caught me up on the great job they actually did to pass! Star had to be a bit of a prima donna and required a pad to lay on for the sit and down part 😛 — she’s not usually like that, and Janet thought it would be Tara who would give her more problems, but Tara (who is her heart dog) was ready, willing and able to do whatever Janet asked of her. I so understand that special bond and so appreciate it! I’m glad Janet has it with Tara.

 Got this from Colin today — am I ever proud of him!

Photography Exhibit by Colin Wright

The photography of Colin Wright will be shown at Stage Left Café and Espresso Bar throughout the month of August. The display will change a couple of times throughout the month, so be sure and stop by often!

Come join Colin at Stage Left on Saturday, August 5th, from Noon to 3pm for an artist’s reception celebrating the first public exhibit of his photography.

Stage Left is located at 9975 WingHaven Boulevard in O’Fallon MO.

Colin is riding with Team Enterprise in the MS150 in September to help support the work of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. 15% of all sales from this photography exhibit will be donated as pledges for this ride.

 

 

I wish there was a way for us to see this online and to buy some of his photos. I’ve seen some of the ones on his website and they are just fantastic! Don’t forget to donate to his ride for MS.

Well, I guess I need to get back to work — have dallied around enough.

Love to all,

Margaret

    I wish you could be up here to see it too! I’ll have photos from the reception on Saturday, so you’ll be able to see the way the wall looks and how the reception goes.

    I was surprised to see my announcement on your site — thanks for the publicity! I can’t wait to see how this all plays out. Even if I don’t sell a thing, I’ll have had a wonderful learning experience, and will definitely be ready for the next show!

    Please let us know how we, as remote admirers of your work, could purchase your photos!

    Love,

    I’m working on getting an online sales piece ready for the commercial site (http://www.colin-wright.com), and hope to have that ready before the end of the month.

    Stay tuned!
