Our show is this Saturday and I am the Show Chairman. I have awakened every night thinking of something more I need to do and worry about. There is so much to take over there let alone my own irises.
We have severe storms predicted tonight and more the rest of the week so who knows if any irises will survive. Like you said, never know what flowers will be blooming so it is hard to plan your design colors in advance. I have to do a "Tea for Two" functional design and cannot find my teapot so have been haunting Goodwill but found two nice ones.
I have to wash all of the vases that are plexiglass and press the tablecloths. Lots of work.
Transporting the flowers is the worst. I will probably not get any sleep the rest of the week trying to get it all together to take to Frankfort.
That being said, I did win Best of Show on my first time out and have won design or some other category each year for the past 5. This year I will be too busy to worry about winning, just want the show to go off without a hitch.
