big girl pants, event, flowers, guru, Safeway, shopping, transformation, widow

yesterday I picked up flowers from Safeway for an event this evening…

I gave them to the clerk to wrap without putting them in a plastic sleeve and assumed she would put them in one before wrapping them…

she didn’t so the package was soaking wet at the bottom and the stems were sticking out before I even got home…

I took them out and put them into a container of water so they would be in good shape for today…

this morning I put them in a plastic bag filled with water so they wouldn’t suffer on the way to work… tucked them into the seatbelt and away we went…

at the office, our resident flower guru cut and placed them in fresh water, and then arranged them beautifully…

they spent most of the day at the front of the office and then moved into the meeting space for the evening…

quite the transformation…

watching skating on tv tonight and thinking of my dear friend Ellen…

when I come across a skating competition I still turn to grab the phone to give her a reminder call, lol… 

we would always call one another when one of the events came on to be sure the other knew about it… and once it was over we would spend time debriefing…

lovely memories…

amazing, big girl pants, busy, colleagues, consuming, event, lost, rose, team, widow

this has been a hugely busy and all-consuming week, ending in a excellent event today…

the day went beautifully and it was a great example of a well-oiled team…

finished with getting lost and having my colleagues find me and get me home…

this rose, from one of the centrepieces, is a wonderful reminder of such amazing women with whom I spend my days…
