I Used To Love October

Work is busy.  Then there's the October stuff.  The Jet Ski World Finals, the Run to the Sun Car Show, the Parade, the Arizona Federation of Republican Women's quarterly meeting. It never ends.  I volunteered to be the Republican Women's Historian this year and I paid dearly.  I thought it would be easy because I'm always taking photos and saving stuff from meetings.  But then there's the scrapbook that's due in October.  It has to be fantastic because it gets judged at the State meeting.
It then becomes a gift to our club president.  I have my own from my term as President, and it's enormous.

 



I think I did good.

But the other stuff, the events.....well I worked my tail off.  So did Gary! He took vacation time from his regular job (60 hours a week) so he'd be down at the beach with me.  He ended up working, and it was HARD work.  He and his pal Guy were in charge of a myriad of things.

 



Now they are having withdrawals and they miss each other. It's cute.

The Run to the Sun was a very limited amount of work, but it was after I had already spent a full day doing nails at the salon and I was already a bit wore out.  The only time I had at the Car Show for photos was at the end of the evening....

 



That's the full moon rising, and then the other photo is the few people left at the end of the evening having a rest before we had to tear everything down!

So I've been online ordering new orthopedic shoes.  My feet hurt, they're tired.  I need a rest.
