Everything is on the way...

Wednesday was supposed to be the day my boss was stopping by to pick up all the stuff for the Conference, but not everything had arrived, so we changed it to today. Since Staples was flooded last month and won't be open until the end of November, I have to order everything online. I miss just driving over there and browsing through the store. Below is a picture of the flooding that happened September 14, 2008 in Munster, IN. The tall building is the clinic. It was flooded, too. The Staples store is just to the right of the clinic. Target (on the far right) is on higher ground, so only the parking lot was flooded.



Anyway, it felt good to get all those boxes out the door. I didn't take a picture. Maybe I will when they arrive in Little Rock. I did take a picture of the gift bag labels I printed today. I only had 5 sheets of round labels left, and no time to order more, so, having the exact number needed (30), I couldn't make a mistake.



I am not taking these out of the bag for pictures, so please excuse the reflective wrinkles.

The only thing left to do is print name tags and lists of equipment. Piece of cake.

In other news, winter must be around the corner because I just killed spider # 2 running around my computer. My Dendrobium orchid has it's once-per-year buds. And amazingly all of my violets are continually trying to bloom. That has been going on all summer. I have been picking off the flowers on most of the plants to get them to rest. Tomorrow or Saturday I'm sending that Desert Rose plant to the lady in Florida and some species leaves to a lady in California. These will be her first species :-)
