The morning after the ball

I could risk the eternal wrath of the older sister and take a picture of a snoring Cinderella right now, but…

…now that she’s got these two first place certificates from the Beau Monde soiree, I’d say she deserves a little sleeping in today.

Yep… yepyepyepyepyepyepyepyepyepyep! SHE WON BOTH AWARDS! Yahoooooooo! (Very exciting.)

Today begins the conference itself, starting with the keynote luncheon and the first of the workshops. I’ve put together what I hope will be a very rewarding, interesting, informative — and, yes, exhausting — line-up of events that will carry me back home with the gumption I need to get my butt in gear again.

And no… the most of Disney I’ve seen has been a glimpse of a small corner of Spaceship Earth as we traveled back from the Boardwalk on Tuesday night. *sigh*

A day of waiting

This is the day that my dance card wasn’t chock full of conference events (my sister has a retreat, and then, tonight, there’s the Beau Monde “soiree” and awards ceremony, for which she’s up for two Royal Ascots.)

After a great night of sleep in the Dolphin’s heavenly beds, I have been tied to the laptop, working on revising the submissions I want to make to a big contest next month.

Oh… and I’m reading a great book my sister recommended: Pam Rosenthal’s The Slightest Provocation.

We’re off to the “goody room” to see what swag we can snag!
