THE LISTS ARE CONSUMING ME


Right now I am sitting in my comfy chair, with a full tummy and winding down after a pretty constant day at the shop.
I have to start preparing for the upcoming trade show. This means I need to have everything ready in boxes ready to deliver then set out and display.
It takes me two days to build my stand and I need to display as much of my stock so people understand what it is I sell.
I start setting up on Thursday and at this point I don,t even have a price list.
I am normally very organized due to endless list making but right now I have 5 half hearted & confused lists at my feet.
One list bis divided into 2 with stock needed and not yet gathered here at ground zero (home). The other side of this list has a rough guide of what garments I want displayed on dummies.
The next list again is divided into two sections one side is colours white/ silver/ black. The other side is red/ rum/ sage. Then attached to this is another list of odd colours that don't fit into these categories.
The next list is items that need to be purchased in one trip prior to set up.
Another list is a check list of tools, wall coverings, and all the sundries needed to build and present the trade stand.
Then I have started another list of items I need to purchase at the trade show for my shop.
And OMG!!! what is that? Oh yes a 2 page list of things I need to do in the next few days or weeks, which of course as I sit here realize there are things to be added.

Well I think I will have a cup of tea , go to bed and try and get it all together and coherent tomorrow.
