Weekend of Parties

I have two Christmas Parties this weekend and go figure I'm sick with a cold. But I'm still going to both of them.
Tonight is my work Christmas Party in which I have been helping plan and organize since the end of October when I started working at NAS (the air ambulance company).
Thursday I went and got the supplies that I need to decorate the wine cups. Then I went back to the office decorated three glasses different ways so that my boss could pick which she liked.

Yesterday was full of shopping for all the supplies while still trying to run the office with the office phone forwarded to my cell phone (we always have to have someone with the phone as we flight follow our planes, so whenever we leave the office we forward the phone to our cell phone. Its nice cause then you can leave the office and do an errand without missing a call). After getting all the supplies we needed we went over to the place where the party is being held. We set up as much as possible as we didn't bring the tablecloths from the office. We then realized we forgot somethings so back to the dollar store to get more platters then back to the venue we went. We got back to my place at 6:20pm!...Where my bosses daughter picked her up there as she took her car all day so we used mine.

After getting home I ate what dinner I could eat as my throat hurts and my nose is running then started decorating the rest of the wine glasses I didn't get done. I put on all the bows and let them dry, did some laundry, cleaned the kitchen, and then my lovely bf came over to visit for a bit. I hadn't sat down on the coach till he came when he told me to sit down and rest.

Here is a pic of the glasses. The one of the left is the ladies glasses as they have a start charm on the bottom of the glass if you were wondering what the gold thing is. Then the one on the right is the mens glasses. Heather is my bosses name and those are our place cards for the tables.


Here is a better pic of the charm on the bottom. I had to twist the wire together around the glass. Some of them worked with me in bending properly some didn't, but in the end they all turned out good.


So today I'm off to try and get some Christmas Shopping done. Plus I need to get stuff ready for games for the Christmas Party, and get Christmas Music together as well as try and take a nap before night.

Then tomorrow night I have another Christmas Party. Its a murder mystery party at my friend Mel.S.'s house. My character's name is Dorothy May Bradford (which is kinda cool as my grandmother who recently passed away a year ago's name is Dorothy). I have to wear a bright coloured dress and it has to be eccentric. Any ideas for me??? I have no idea hopefully will find something today while shopping as its tomorrow!

Have a good weekend everyone!

You are very creative girlie! Sorry you're sick I truly feel your pain. Just remember to get lots of rest. As for you dress, maybe you could get one with shiny material with a 70's pattern on it. Whatever you find, you'll look fab! Have fun Christmas shopping!
