which I have just had framed, it turned out beautifully.  To think that at the beginning of her first  year at UNT  she could barely draw.

Well today at Joann’s was madness!  We were down to 2 hand held (the things we scan the fabric with) and they were crashing all the time.  In the end I just hand wrote every ticket as it was causing too much delay fussing about the hand helds.  At one point we had 6 people cutting and still the line was about about 10 tickets deep.  As soon as we finished with one person, we seem to gain another 2.   This is the third day in a row that I have seen Joann’s heaving at the seams, there are so many people coming in.  Its the managers I feel sorry for as they are working all the hours they can muster.  One manager called in sick today as I think the stress got to her.  Just glad I am not a manger, I clock in  my hours and no more than that. 

Anyway that is me done until Monday now. Off to San Marcos tomorrow to have lunch with Elisabeth and pick up some boxes plus a desk from her apartment as she is at the end of her lease.  So, until she find her own place which might be a while, we are storing  some stuff for her.
