Things have been kind of crazy here. Yesterday I left the house at 9 a.m. and returned home at 7:30 pm! I went to the "Y" and then out to lunch with Newcomers Out to Lunch Bunch at Firebirds at the mall. So, of course I had to do some shopping while at the mall! Plus, I had a $25 coupon for Coldwater Creek that I couldn't let expire. But, I also went to Belk's and bought my mom's Mothers Day present. After shopping, I met Marianne back in Mooresville and we went to the movies. We saw "The Lucky One." Zac Efron is sure dreamy! We both enjoyed the movie. My only complaint is that I thought he seemed a lot younger than Taylor Shilling (his love interest in the movie). He is 24 and she is 27 but he seemed a lot younger than that. But it was a great chick flick and I would recommend it.
Sonny and I are on a new Red Cross National Disaster Team. This is a pilot program for Lake Norman Red Cross. There are about 18-20 people on the team from all over the Piedmont. Sonny and I and the Team Leader are the only ones from the Mooresville office - the others are from Charlotte, Kings Mountain, Morganton, Gastonia, Salisbury, etc. We will be doing all our training as a team and will be traveling to the various cities for our training. Saturday we were in Charlotte for our first meeting; Monday night we had a Forms Class in Morganton and today we took an on-line (3 hours!) course on setting on and closing a shelter. We have a class scheduled Saturday in Charlotte and over the next few weeks, we have 1-2 training classes a week. The plan is when a disaster hits, we would be ready to deploy as a team of about 4-5 people within 24 hours.
I have another card to share using a retiring stamp set, Season of Friendship. I had to use it one last time before sending the stamp to a friend in Georgia who is buying it from me. (Cathy - it will be in the mail tomorrow!) I actually saw a card similar to this one on Pinterest in pinks. But I wanted to use Poppy Parade since it is retiring.
