The GOOD The Bad The Ugly Weather

First, the good.  I'll explain why I look a bit worn out in a minute.

The above photo is from the Morris Daily Herald.  You can read the article HERE.

My demo at the Three French Hens market this past Saturday went well. However, before that happened, THIS happened.

Yes, on the way to the market, in a driving rainstorm, my drive shaft broke.  My friend Rhonda was with me, and, we prayed as I managed to get to the shoulder.  I have great road service. I told them they would have to tow me to the market, and, I would call for another tow after it was over. That's right, there was no turning around at this point. Rhonda called her husband to meet us while we waited for the tow truck.  Once the truck arrived, Rhonda and Roger proceeded to the market, and, I rode along with the tow truck guy.

I was late for the start of the market, and, it was pouring rain. A tent was there for me, but, it had somewhat of a malfunction, and, we spent a good deal of time dumping water off the roof of the tent.  Quite a bit of which flew back at us.

Are you picturing all of this yet?  Cause, under the circumstances, I have no photos.

Imagine fishermen on a stormy sea.

The rain didn't lighten up till it was time for me to head over to Traci's shop for the transfer demonstration. I felt like a dish rag at this point.

Rhonda manned the booth, while I attended the luncheon.  She did quite well during my absence. We completed what was left of the market, packed, and, I waited for my next tow.

I stood there by my van, after all the vendors had packed and gone.  This was the scene. No rain, no thunder, no lightening.  Seriously? LOL

Once home, I was grateful Rhonda and I were not hit by one of the trucks flying by us on the road. Thank you Lord.  They were WAY TOO CLOSE.   I was grateful for good friends, with a great since of humor, who endured the ordeal with me.  I was grateful for positive feedback from those who attended the luncheon.  I was grateful for a hot shower.

My van is in the shop.

So, I've had a few days rest.  Now, per request, I'm having another sale this Thursday, Friday, and, Saturday. I don't have to drive anywhere, and the weather forecast looks great.

See ya soon.
