TBEC Pre-Party Prep Night

Wednesday, June 28, 2012~

Makin' friends, learning about the letter L

So that's the picture of the day.^ ^

Last night our TBEC group got together at Tampa Upcycle to work on the decorations for the big party in August. It was fun. Someone donated a ton of old orange grove posters and advertisements. The maps for our original idea never materialized, so it just seemed like our theme came to us. Anyway, it's always good to meet fellow Etsians, especially Crew members!

The Meet Up

Tuesday, April 24th~

My camera is not great in dim lighting. Everyone looked much better!

The meet up! And I passed my little kidney stone! I had a slow and achy morning, but ended up getting caught up on a bunch of household stuff. I think tomorrow I may be able to actually do some work on my Etsy shop! Of course, I'd rather be at Great Explorations, but if that doesn't work out...

The Etsy meetup tonight was a lot of fun. We more than doubled the number we had last time. An hour and a half really wasn't long enough, but I think everyone was glad they came. The Roosevelt 2.0 is such a great venue. I know we'll be back. Tampa Upcycle is everything I though it would be. I can't wait to start trading supplies.

I hadn't met my co-leader before so after we wrapped at Upcycle, she and I went to La Creperia for coffee and to get to know each other. What a nice and fun chick she is! I feel so much less alone in my group responsibilities. There are so many great things we can bring to our little community. I feel really renewed in my position as El Capitan and challenged to make my shops better.
