Wine Tasting Day

I'm really excited this morning. Tonight, the Shelbyville-Bedford County Humane Association is having the annual wine tasting and silent auction. We are calling it, Taste Around the Holidays. We've had a fabulous team of people out getting donations for our silent auction. There are some REALLY nice items up for bid this year. Last night at the set up, I perused the tables to look at all of the items slowly. There are a couple of really nice baskets full of doggy and kitty items from the local groomer's shops that I'm interested in purchasing myself. I guess we'll have to see how high the bids actually go. Before I head for home today, I have to go to Sam's Club and pick up some mini quiches and pinwheels. I've finished all of our little flyers that explain silent auction rules. I delivered all of the flowers last night, and they've already been placed in the room. I got the Christmas cards from Pawsitive Notes placed and ready to sell tonight. I'll be manning that table myself, if Terri is unable to make it. There will be several of my good friends there tonight. So, it will be good food, good wine, and good friends. I have mentioned the Caroling for Critters idea to the other volunteers, and everyone is excited about the project. I've already gotten a large number of people volunteer to go and do the actual caroling with me. I'm taking a sign up sheet with me tonight to see if I can collect any donations ahead of time.

I have quite a bit to accomplish at work today as well. I have to get a whole bindery order entered and packed, as well as get the student assistants working on shelf reading and cleaning our area. We are having a big, official naming ceremony in 10 days. There will be over 200 guests coming to view our area. Talk about stress!! Anyway, I'm trying to get everything done on the "to do" list, so we don't get caught with any sudden suprises. I'm planning on updating the photoblog today with pictures from Bear's Halloween escapade. I have the camera with me, but I've come up and left the cords in the car!! SHEESH!

preserve yourself in the state of being free
from sin or moral wrong; you do your best to
remain lacking knowledge of evil. Actually its
an act, you just never get found out.
