So, only a week before the SAGA National Convention classes begin! Are you anywhere near ready?
Yes, I know you have tons more things to get done before you
even start to think about packing but I hope you have checked your class
supplies, completed your Design Show entries (only joking-you can
work on those a few hours more) and are actually aware that it is only a week
away?
Okay, so you are planning the family’s meals for the week
you are gone and doing the laundry and everything else you have to do to make
sure that your husband and children survive without you, but believe me, they
will survive. Maybe they will appreciate you a little more when you return
(well for the first few days at least).
Whether you are a First Time attendee or have been many
times to Convention you will have a great time. You will meet and make new
friends and renew old friendships. You will be tired and mind numb after several
days of classes and events. You may even wonder if you will ever finish the
class project, but hopefully you will enjoy yourself enough to want to attend
another Convention-they can be addictive!
