Trying to keep your cool when things go wrong

Since I drive to CA from Spokane for my shows I try to have a show every weekend.

My last show before going back to Spokane just kept going from bad to worse.

I was the first to set up I made sure that the person incharge showed me the spot.

After setting up the tent and table we found out that my number goes from right

but I was told to set up on the left side of my number but that was easy to fix.

we switched numbers no big deal.  Then slowly vendors started to set up.  Making sure

that my tent was set up exactly between the lines.  But the tent two down from me  after he

had his tent set up the person between us did not have a 10X10 space.

I had all my glass up when we found that I would have to move.  I could only

be grateful that I had 3 men helping me move my tent a few feet without

breaking anything.

It seem everything was going wrong and I was feeling that I wanted to just pack up and leave.

With the help of so many wonderful volunteers at the show it made me to go on.

I see how hard the people who make our art show work to make it a success

for us.  Hopefully we do not forget that.
