Soooo...this weekend is going to be the busiest weekend of the year for me, and today I decided...what the heck...let's make it EVEN busier!!

Here's how my schedule looks:

Friday - Grand Opening for my 1st recruit
Friday late - go out for said recruit's birthday (she also happens to be my sister!)
Saturday morning - get my daughter ready for performance
Saturday noon - take daughter to Nutcracker rehearsal
Saturday 2:00 - watch mini Nutcracker performance
Saturday 4:30 - PC show
Saturday evening - get everything ready for Sunday
Sunday morning - take daughter to Nutcracker rehearsal
Sunday 2:00 - PC show (45 minutes away)
Sunday 5:00 - Arrive at mall for Magical Night of Giving....

Today I stopped by the mall to get information for their bridal fair in February. Woohoo, no other PCers have signed up yet!! And I decided to ask if they did outside vendors for Magical Night of Giving (this is an annual fundraising event, the mall stores have huge sales, there are lots of giveaways, and a BIG attendance, like thousands!!) - yes they do, and no they don't have a PC rep yet. So, of course, I signed up!!

So as if I have all the time in the world this weekend, I've just added something else. But I'm really excited about it! Two of my recruits and my director are going in on this with me, and we're actually going to split shifts so I can go watch my daughter when its time for her to dance.

Wish me luck this weekend! Hopefully it will all go well for SAT!!!
 
wow...Tight schedule!Good luck!!
 
Wow, that sounds like an incredibly busy and exciting weekend! Congratulations on your first recruit and your sister's birthday. And good luck with the Nutcracker performances, PC show, and Magical Night of Giving. It's great that you have the support of your recruits and director for the event. I'm sure it will be a success! Just remember to take breaks and take care of yourself amidst all the hustle and bustle. Good luck and have fun!
