I've been ready the jokes and my side was hurting so much from laughing that I thought I would pop in here for some serious conversation. I should have known better There is no hope. It's so funny

Hi again..

Just a "quick" reply cause I'm a bit busy - but really you just do "one thing at a time" - worst case scenario is that I am here all night Friday Night and into Saturday Morning.! - that dosn't happen to often - thank God, but I can be found here a 2am sometimes!

In all honesty - sometimes I do panic a little, especialy when the shop is also busy....like this morning, everone wanted everything done NOW..! I have just finished the morning rush to get everything made for the courier pick up and now have to start on this afternoons orders. I also have to make stuff to sell in the shop - but at least I know I am ALIVE..! he he

Will get back online tonight after I go home and have a couple of beers to calm down..

WOW what can I say you really must be organized?? to do all that by yourself.. drink one for me too! I am a multi tasker but wow 5 weddings
do you do your own delivers and set ups too??

You know.. I get the email saying someone has replied to this post and I just can't help myself.. have to reply again too....it's a bit of an addiction isn't it??

Well... quickly I have to make this weekend

5 Brides bouquets
15 Bridesmaids
36 Buttonholes
14 corsages
32 Back of chair flowers
4 Isle Arrangements
1 alter arrangement
12 Guest tables
plus other incidental stuff like hair flowers etc...

I have an excellent courier who will deliver a couple of the weddings, My husband will deliver some too and I will set up the reception stuff after the shop is closed on Saturday.. then it's all finished.!

Here in Aus, there dosn't seem to be as much reception arrangements done as you seem to do there. It only seems to be every 3rd Wedding that has the budget for that. Mostly the reception is "flower free" , mainly they use glassware, candles etc and Wedding Decorators seem to do most of that.....

thanks for sharing with me and good luck this weekend. keep me posted!! I am very impressed, I always love to here wedding flower stories. well its almost 10:30 p.m I am calling it a night. Kids have to get up early to get to school and today was their first day back. .. night, night to all..sweet dreams

sorry greatflowerlady it is me but I was away from the pc chatting to my daughter (her and her hubby had been out to celebrate her birthday) they came home and her husband took the dog out in the back garden he was gone ages then the dog came back in with it's ball looking kind of bored. Its master had sat down on the swing and fallen asleep. We were debating whether to leave him there or not

Hi KK,

That's a result! Nice to have you join.
What do i want to know?....like...everything..I'm sure it's quite different operating in Oz what with the weather and the difference in the supply chain.
Not to mention the delivery areas..

p.s. Don't take too much notice of the welsh lass, she's having a funny turn (it started about 1980)
