Not even a week left to go and in true Phyllis and Emilia fashion, we are behind on our punch list. This is gonna be a fun week if it doesn’t kill us.

I (Phyllis here) am on telephone standby jury duty all week. Yeah, I flaked on getting out of that one. It’s most likely all good. Called last night and I’m off the hook, but then they mentioned that I have to call in every night for 2 weeks. WTF? If I got put on a trial, it would last less time.

Ordered stenciling online for the gold leafing for the shop window. The description said 4.5″ x 5.5″ and we thought that meant each letter, but the entire card with all letters was that big. Sooo, now we gotta find a local crafts store that sells antique looking lettering. The closest Michaels is Rego Park. We’re probably better off just going to Pearl Paint on Canal.

So, what else is on the to do list?

1. Price and display the gazillion items I bought at markets yesterday.
2. Paint some more pieces. Touch up and fix the ones we’ve been bashing about.
3. Paint the lettering if we ever get these damn stencils.
4. Clean! Clean! Clean!
5. Pick up food and booze.
6. More marketing. Hey, spread the word!

Well, it doesn’t sound so bad when it’s narrowed down to a list of six items, but please note that a “gazillion” pieces take awhile to price and we probably have quite a few pieces that need painting and touch up.

But it’s all good. It’s only Monday. Yep, alllll good.
