Almost already packed to
I truly cannot wait to go this year last 4 weeks have been sure hell for me and I hope by the time this convention is I will be 100% better regardless I am going no matter how I feel. I have been suffering from Vertigo for 4 weeks now having problems standing, and walking. I have been to my physician and have a couple more tests to determine my cause of vertigo. Besides my little health drama the only thing that is making me happy is going to the convention this year and spending time with my good friend John and other friends of the Convention group.

I sent my registration in last week!!! woohoo Will book the hotel tonight!!!! We are driving from Kansas (approx. 9 hrs) and hope to arrive Wednesday afternoon/evening for the pre show
Sam is coming to my house from Florida.
We're driving to Chicago. God help us!! It's about a 13 hour drive. Hopefully, neither of us will be riding in the trunk or as a hood ornament. We've always gotten along so well. It'll be memorable, I'm sure . I'm polishing up some items and filling the front living room with things to take. "Happy Dance"

Some are HOOVER, some are not. Some are for sale, trade, etc...
I'm also contributing a lot to the raffle.
We're making this convention easy, simple, streamlined, and FUN.
It'll be organized, etc. There are a few surprises...................
It will be wonderful to see everyone again as well as some new people.

We are picking up the rental car the afternoon of Wednesday, June 15th, and leaving at about 2 in the morning Thursday, June 16th from Birmingham to Chicago. We should make it there by about 5 or 6 Thursday evening.
I'm having "Vacuum" towels made for the conventi
I gave them to the monogram er yesterday. He's not surprised anymore. He plugs them into the machine and keeps them for me.
You'll be surprised to know I'm making Hoover, of course, Kirby, G.E. and Electrolux towels. I thought I'd make a nice array "across the board". I still have to get him the lux and Kirby logo.... He's started on the Hoover and GE.
It'll be fun, I'm sure.

Ready for a Road Trip
Like John, I'm renting a larger car than I own so that my vacuums can be properly escorted to their new forever homes. Tyler, Ken, Jon, Sam, Michael,and John will be receiving highly prized vacuums from my collection. I just visited Enterprise to confirm my rental will adaptable to my Suzy Homemaker stove and Sony Trinitron TV, so I can enjoy my frozen pizza and tuna melts and catching daytime drama while crossing the plains of America. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone, catching up, and lots of laughter. Safe travels.

Well, laundry is almost all done.
The livingroom is gradually filling, the car rental is a "go".
Papers, tools, etc are almost ready.
There are a few surprise in store... eyebrows will raise.
Let the excitement build!
