P.L. and my other kids

Well, after much instant-messaging and file-sharing, I have gotten P.L. started on her own blog. I'll even get to help contribute to it. Yippee! It's going to be fun.

Meanwhile, daughter Cathie is preparing to head out to Fort Bragg in her new Dodge pick-up. Her half-brother Chris put a trailer hitch on it Monday. She'll be back next weekend, and she'll take more of her belongings over. I'm looking forward to going to visit, once she has an apartment.

And I am still excited about the CafePress Meet & Greet in Louisville. I have a shirt I'm going to wear. P.L. loves it, especially since she is featured on it.

P.L. t-shirt: Welcome to Kentucky

I'll be posting later to let you know how it goes.

Updates ~

I have gotten so far behind on things. But a lot has been happening recently.

My daughter Cathie is back from South Korea. Unfortunately, she's off to North Carolina and her new post on Tuesday. We have done some interesting things, but not everything I had planned.
I really wanted to take her to
the Frist Center for the Visual Arts
while she's here. (I'd go just to see Monet.)
If Cathie can't accompany me, I'll go myself. It won't be the first time.

Additionally, I am starting three new online stores, none of which is "live" yet. One is a collaborative site with someone else, but the other two are the offspring of my main store, Lorilei's Artist at Work.

My fulfillment company, CafePress, is also opening a new facility in Louisville, Kentucky -- yay!
**happy dance**
The July 5 grand opening ceremony is also going to be a Meet & Greet, complete with a barbeque cook-out. (I hope there's more than barbeque -- it doesn't get along with my digestive system.)
I have created a t-shirt for the occasion, and I'm hoping to take some stuff along for fun.


Speaking of fun, I also hope I can visit Churchill Downs while I'm in Louisville. I know they are dark on July 5-6, but maybe the museum will be open, at least. Too bad they won't be running that day. I'd love to take some fellow CP-ers to Churchill to see the horses, especially some of the Californians who've never been to Kentucky.

Got to go soon. My nephew is on my computer, and I'm catching up on my mother's at the moment. But I work an earlier shift at Kentucky Downs tomorrow, so I can't stay online all night, even for Bejeweled 2.
