Aw no, not you too Terrie! So sorry. :( I hope you find some chocolate or at least a glass of wine and some candles for the bath. Libby Lehman's class also expires tomorrow (oops it's today here now) so there's another one to add to the list. Halloween has played a mean trick on you and Lois this year. :x

Sorry this happened, Terrie. Since you'll be watching TQS shows tomorrow, don't forget that the Sally Collins class that is on the Daily Blog expires tomorrow--might be worth watching (or watching again). Take care!

Boo-hoo-hoo! :cry:

I'm not going to Houston. :x

I just spent an entire day at the airport - airplane not going anywhere. :x Cancelled. Wish they knew that before I got up at 4:40 AM. Now past 6:35 PM, and the plane has not moved. I am home now. A few people might get lucky with a cancelled class or two. I'm sorry I won't be there, but I think I am too exhausted to be sad or tidy the house, like Lois.


Next on the agenda:

Bath.
Bed.

Tomorrow: watch as many TQS classes and shows as I want, and maybe spend the whole day in my PJ's. Maybe eat cake. :cry: But I don't have any in the house. :cry:





Have fun everyone! Maybe next year - or Paducah??

Lois, So sorry about the Houston show this year. We can both be grumpy and grateful together. :( :shock: :? :roll: :wink: :) :lol: :D
I've been grumpy about not going all along...just can't afford it this year...and grateful we weathered the storm with no damage. The lights flickered a few times, but that was all. There's always next year.

Loise, I am so sorry to hear that you wont be getting to Houston. I know poor Hanne-Grete is sitting in Norway feeling very grumpy too. I would be if it was me! I know that there are others out there with their flights likely to be cancelled. Such a disappointment when people has spent so much time saving and looking forward to going. As those who have been before know it is less about the shopping, we can do most of that online, but its about meeting up with TQS friends, old and new.

Tell you what. All the grumping and grouching is going into getting the house in apple-pie-order. Just be glad you are not standing in my way. LOL. I am also cooking comfort food...chicken and noodles. Most of the house is beginning to meet my approval. This is not my favorite task - tidying. Hence the worning. Next on my list is the sewing room. Then I will sew and shop online for some of the things that were on my list at the vendors booths in Houston.
Lois, you can do quite a lot of shopping online for what your trip to Houston was going to cost you! Have fun shopping! And know that I will miss you.

Lois, if you get tired of tidying up the house, since it's already in pretty good shape, just bake the apple pie to go with the chicken and noodles... comfort food beats an apple-pie-order house any day in my book! :lol: Glad you're smiling! :twisted:

Oh, Lois, I'm so sorry!! And absolutely you can be grumpy and grateful at the same time!!!! Any TQS member would feel exactly the same way as you do!! And I'm sorry for myself, too — I was so looking forward to meeting you! But, we will make it happen another time!! I hope you're able to get all your refunds! Big hugs, Robin

Lois, it is okay to feel grumpy and grateful! I'm so glad you and your family are safe in NJ and PA.
