Today start out a dreary rainy day and I had to work at 10am. I drag myself out of bed on these rainy day’s I want to lay in bed and cuddle with Todd and the puppies. Get in the shower and get ready for work. 9:45 rolls around and I am still at the house watching shark week keep in mind that it is a 3 mile drive to the gatehouse. Todd shoe’s me out of the house so I will not be late my response was “you go work for me I want to watch Shark Week” I have been waiting for this and watching the commercial for a whole month. Of course he said “hell no” now go before you are late :-)
I hope in the truck and head down to the gate house at like 9:50am. I get down to the gatehouse and it was not raining down here at the current moment I was really happy about that. Get all the morning stuff ready count my drawer, get the weather up and look in the check out box to see who left already. Done now time to get on the computer for a few minutes. Melissa walk’s in and say’s “where is Snookie” my response was “oh $hi& I forgot to pick her up” good thing Snookie found it funny that I forgot her. Bob brings her down since it is a rainy day we sit in the gatehouse joke around and play on our computer’s
while we are playing on our computer’s we get news that there is a meeting this morning……Our agenda for this meeting is to get it over ASAP because we need to get Edie to the bank with the deposit so we can decorate for the surprise party!!!!. The meeting is moving along still no rain which make me really happy because we are sitting outside at this point and we are going to have the surprise party outside. We start talking about all way’s to make checking people in and out easier and more efficient. Here comes a BEE I am terrified of these things so in the middle of the meeting with no warning I am up out of my chair running around screaming like a little girl because the damn BEE wanted to chase me. Little sucker come bother me now I have a fly swatter HA!!!! 2 hours later (12 noon) and 3 Bee chases later the meeting is over and I am back in the gatehouse with the door’s closed to no bee’s can find me :-)
Edie love’s to talk we are saying everything to make her leave so we can get the decorating started. Every time she stopped to talk it was 15 mins finally around 12:45 she said “I am out of here” as soon as we see her driving down the road we go get the decorations and we start decorating. Melissa went up to her home to get the cakes yes cakes we had three birthday in the month of July and August so we are really throwing the surprise party for Snookie and Buzz as well but they have not idea either. They think the party is just for Edie. We are just about finished decorating and the sky’s opened up and just dumped rain like it has never rained before. We have 2 easy up’s up but water is still getting on everything. Now we are playing the waiting game since we are finished we just have to wait for Edie to get back. The rain keeps coming not letting up. BLAH I am sooooooo over this rain I need sunshine.
About 3pm we see Edie’s car pulling in so we all gather under the easy up. Todd pop’s open his umbrella and escorts her to the party. we all yell “SURPRISE” she is so happy and could not believe what we had planned. The rain is coming down real hard but about 5 minutes into the party the rain gave up and was a sprinkle. Long enough for us all to sing Happy Birthday to Edie, Buzz and Snookie. we had to half sheet cakes and a HUGE carrot cake that was special for Edie Ken went 40 miles to buy that cake for her. Now that is love <3 There is only 13 of us Host and manager’s here boy do we have A LOT OF CAKE TO EAT!!!!! The party is winding down and we are starting to clean up and the sky’s open up again and dump more rain on us. At least it let us get through the party without being soaked. overall it was a great day (minus the rain) Happy Birthday Edie, Buzz and Snookie and many many many more to come!!!!!
