Well you are looking at my very first piece of art that I have ever bought. It is called Romanian Kitchen and it was painted by my new friend Cynthia. Fun story-- I came all the way to Romania to buy a painting painted by a Texan living in Romania. I fell in love with this picture right when I saw it. You can taste the tomatoes just by looking at it. So I had to have it. But the problem was it was one of the items that the American table was auctioning off. I started off with the first bid and well about 3 or 5 more bids came in and well I wanted it so I put the last bid in. And now it is mine!!!! It will go in the new house next year! I can't wait!!
We did pretty good at the bazaar for the International Women Association. Not sure what the final count is for the American or all but we were constantly busy at the American table. And in the end, we had the best deals, I couldn't get the people to leave when it was over cause they wanted to keep buying. But they finally did and I was able to turn the money in, without counting it. I should get a total tomorrow.
I am so glad that the bazaar is over, I have never been so tired and sore in my life!! And to make it worse, today, one day later, I am working 2 shifts at Casa Agar. The Morning and night shift. So this morning has been busy.... got to the house and for about 2 1/2 hours I put together the new bunk beds. And now the moms are making jewelry around in the living room and the babies are talking amongst themselves.
I can't believe in a week I will be at my brother's with him, his girls, and my mom! I am so ready for a little break.
