Give me strength!
I am on a job from hell right now. Hard client, hard everything. Been here is Arizona 3 days now. Working at a mall. So we can't bring the sand in till tonight. Will work all night to get it in. Worst part is my dh got food poisoning last night and has been up all night. I think I maybe got 4 hours sleep. Ran and got him pepto and stuff first thing this morning.
I want to go home now so bad! Here till the 11th.
AND there was a certified mail notice at our house yesterday. Don't have clue what it is and don't know if I can have someone go to the post office and sign for it for us. AHHHHHH
Need strength to make it through this!

ugh... hope it gets MUCH better for you all around. Just two more weeks and you can go home. Just two more weeks...just two more weeks...just two more weeks (think: the Little Engine that Could). Hugs to you!

Oh thank you. I broke down and had a good cry in the shower. My dh is trying to rest but the hotel is loud right now.

I'm sure you get the "oh, you build sand sculptures, how fun!" comments (like I do about jewelry) and it's so the opposite. People have no idea how stressful earning money from craft is.
Don't freak out, and remember to breathe. As for the mail, I had a package notice last week that totally freaked me out, knowing it was a repair (I hate it when my stuff breaks). When it finally came, it wasn't even my piece. The gallery accident sent me another artist's work. All that worry for nothing. So, the letter may in fact be nothing. And, if it is something to deal with, you will. Worrying now won't help at all.

If I was in AZ, I'd take you out for coffee / tea / beer. :o

Thank you all. I would love to coffee with a TE sister! As far as this letter I am not that concerned as i am curious and how to get it without it being sent back to where it came from. Just hoping I can get my friend pick it up for me.
I just have to make it through the next 2 days and then it should be ok.

It's hard to be away for two or three weeks at a time. Sometimes my husband and I take jobs out of town, it can be rough. Hang in there!
-
Brandi - hang in there. Unfortunately, I'm in Tucson, not Phoenix so can't join you for coffee. Good luck getting the sculpture done and hope the DH feels better soon

Got our set up done last night. Boy can we make a mess. Left the mall around 2:00 am, was in bed by 3:00 kinda fell asleep then I think i totally slept till around 8:45. Body wants to get up. Husband is waaaaay better. He passed out as soon as his head hit the pillow. Poor guy worked so hard yesterday after such a bad night the night before. And all he ate yesterday was 2 yogurts and a salad then worked all night. Thanks for the loving support!

Ok this certified letter that was sent to our house...turns out to be a lawyer. So we got the name and found a phone # online. Turns out someone with my husband same name has an outstanding vet bill for horses. Ummmm #1 I am deathly allergic to horse's so we could never own one and 2nd we don't have any horse's! How funny is that. The lawyer said she had 2 address's one in california (us) and the other in Virginia. We said it was not us and she said sorry about that. She caused me a bit of grief over that one.

Post pics! After hard work like that, you should toot your own horn a little. :)
Hope you are enjoying yourself a little after all that, both the work stress and the cert letter stress.
What mall? I'll be in PHX later this week, maybe I'll have time to check it out.
