I had a productive trip to the city last Saturday.  I was able to set up the rental reservation for the table clothes, chafing dishes and other rental items.  The rental place was super busy when we first arrived.  I was polite and waited for the lady to get off the phone by giving her space.  Another lady came in after us and just sat right down in front of the lady, who promptly helped her when she got off the phone.  Instead of getting pissy about it, though, I remained calm and patiently waited another 10 minutes.  It all worked out.  The rental agreement is a little stiff – if we cancel we practically have to pay the full price anyway.  But we won’t cancel!

Then I was able pick up the table serve items from Party America.  It feels good to start gathering it all up. 

I expected to feel much more frantic at this point, but I really feel calm and collected.  I even have time to do all the homework that I just realized is due!

I started the Target registery on line but there were a few items that only the store had.  On Thursday, while killing time before the facial, I had time to wander Target and finish the registry. It was so much fun finding cool, little things, adding them to the scanner and thinking “I might get this.”
