The drive-in down the road is now open. We usually go every weekend, because we have 3 within driving distance. There's always something new for us to watch. The girls saw it was open this weekend and were begging to go. Unfortunately, they both have something to do tomorrow. Cub1 has baseball practice and Cub2 competition. It would have been a great night to go though. No Rain! What a shocker. LOL That hasn't been the case lately.
We're in the middle of starting a screen printing studio for hubby. It has been going pretty quickly and we are just about ready to print. We are waiting one key element though. The exposure unit. What a pain in the ass. We ordered it February 13th. We knew it was going to be awhile as it was factory shipped. They gave us the estimated date of March 3rd. Well, that has come and passed. Hubby has been calling every other day and noooooo exposure unit. It was supposedly shipped last Wednesday and was scheduled to arrive by the end of the week, nope hasn't showed up yet?!?! They said if it doesn't show on Monday call again and they'll call the factory to make sure it was shipped. Can't ruin someone's weekend ya know ;)
Anyway, luckily my cousin's wife, the one who has been helping us get started called today! She called right when I was about to throw out the plotter ARG! The plotter wasn't cutting the rubylith right. I'm not expecting anyone to know wtheck I'm talking about, so don't worry if you don't know. A few months ago, I had no idea either. :oP Well, the printing preferences were coming up in Japanese and well, I just don't know Japanese so it wasn't too helpful HAHA I finally got that working correctly by using a trial version of Corel Draw 12 instead of the old version 8 I have. I guess I need to come up with some moolah to buy the 12 if I don't want to learn Japanese. Okay, that got off track.
Anyhow~ she was calling to tell us about an art show coming up in July. YAY! It starts again. I guess I need to get busy and plot out these designs so we have more prints to sell. It's that time of year again!!! She didn't have any helpful hints about the plotter but was super excited we have come so far. We haven't spoke in about 2 months or so, so things have really changed as far as our shop has gone!
I'm glad she called though. Great timing. Until our exposure unit comes we can expose the frames out there!!! YAY! Whew! One less thing to worry about, but man I hope ours comes soon, dangit!
We had our "hair party" today for Cub2's cheerleading team. It went about as well as can be expected with 14 crazy girls running about. Pizza, cake, and a ton of hairspray to get their hair up. I just can't believe it's the last competition tomorrow. I will be taking her, even though I don't like driving in traffic. I just don't want to miss the last one, I've made every other one, why not this one too??? So I'll buck up and go :)
