We were called for dinner (they called us by tables for meals, starting in different areas each time). We headed down to dinner, which left a lot to be desired. They had a make your own garden salad with mixed green, cucumbers, and tomatoes; black beans and rice, fish, adobe chicken, and pork las ropas (all Cuban style foods) and I for one couldnt handle the spices. On the way back from dinner we decided to take a group photo in front of the year of a million dreams logo they still had out from Mickey coming to visit. We happened to ask a professional photographer (who was walking by) to take our photos so she did with each of our cameras after arranging us just so for the photo. After she took our photo we had her pose for a few for us (I have her email for those of you who took her photos just pm me for it).
Arriving back from dinner we got back to work, Buffy was again on lockdown to get some work done. Not too long after we went back to work one of the store called for a free make and take for the first 24 people there. I was off like a rocket before they finished speaking and managed to get there, the rest of the table (sans Buffy) was right behind me. We choose a chipboard piece and colored it with ink and then used a lacquer type glue to make it have an epoxy look to it. Then we also choose one other piece (preprinted) and highlighted certain parts of it with the glue. After we finished we headed back to the table and got back to work. Not too long after arriving back at the table they announced they had an opening for massages at 8 and 8:20- I was running people over to get up there and sign up. I managed to be 2nd and got the 8pm slot. It was well worth my $22 for the relaxation it provided. I highly recommend getting on the list early in SDV iof you go to one.
They had the big door prizes at 8:30 Denni won a cricut jukebox while she was shopping across the floor, she yelled and then ran over to claim her prize as we clapped for her, being excited about a prize makes it more fun for others to watch. Then they made some announcements that brought tears to many of our eyes and gave us a chance to win $200 for shopping if we put our name into a pot, of course we all did that. About 10pm they announced a 40% sale on everything at the SDV store. I had just run out of adhesive (I went through 6 tombow rollers and 4 rolls of double sided tape by that time in the weekend, along with using plenty of glue dots and lines. So I went running over with the crowd and grabbed 5 refills for my glue roller and a couple of things to add to my complete page swap and got into line where I stood for quite some time, practically undoing my massage. I ended up getting my refills, 3 sheets of paper, a bottle of liquid adhesive, and 2 containers of bling for less than the 5 refills normally cost. The line was crazy and snaked all over the store, if you werent in line it was hard to even move in the store. About 10:30 pm the music started getting turned up and they played YMCA. People were on top of their chairs dancing to it, this started a group of dance songs including the Macarena, Locomotion, and many others including a second time of YMCA. I headed up to bed as Buffy finished packing up her stuff. At this point I was alone at the table for scrapping the next day as everyone else had packed up earlier.
Sunday in my next installment
