Fluff Widows Weekend!

I completely failed to blog about the scrapbooking/crafting weekend I organized for the 1st weekend in June. Had too much fun, I guess!

The title is accurate, but weird-sounding, so involves a bit of explanation. My husband was once involved as a speaker on the No Fluff, Just Stuff speaking tour. There are many speakers and therefore, many of us wives who are Fluff widows. Our husbands flee their hometowns on an almost weekly basis to travel to cities across the US to present up-to-the-minute talks on the latest developments in the world of computer programming. These are Friday-Sunday conferences, and so the ladies, are left to handle the home routine 8 days a week when the guys are off on the road on the weekends and at work during the week.

Well, we decided it was our turn for fun...because the stories we all hear from the husbands are about the great conversations had over dinners in the evenings AFTER the presentations are finished!

So...I coordinated a weekend at a local B&B that caters to scrapbookers. We have lovely rooms, catered meals and EACH of us gets a 5 foot table. We had a blast. Some of the fluff widows came, and we filled in other spots with friends of mine from church. I think the dining highlight of the weekend was eating at Babe's in Frisco.

We've already decided this should be an annual retreat for the ladies. So, I'm booking the place for next year. Again the 1st weekend in June. If you're a Fluff widow (and you know who you are!) email me and reserve your spot today!
