Trick Trick Trick

Guess who doesn't like tricks? ME!!
So this kid asks me last week if I wanted to go help a lady count some fabric. Well I like to be a nice little helpy helper so of course I will go, no big deal right?? We were to meet at nine (at night), so we all get in this car and SURPRISE...the fabric store is in Burley (an hour and a half away) and we are going to be counting every yard of fabric ever made since 1911. Here are some things you might not know about me, when I go without sleep I get extreme stomach pain which converts to anger which makes me Godzilla. The challenge: count all fabric by row and shelf with cost and amount of yards...by morning. I hate going into a JoAnn's for 10 minutes with my mom, so I knew the next 13 HOURS were going to be miserable!There was even better news, no one brought a cd player. So two people played music off their phones. We had anywhere from Enya (if the goal was to put me to sleep you nailed it!) to the Ying Yang twins to random chapters of a book on tape. Also you can't count and talk to people, so there was no talking.These are some of the sheets of rows and shelves. Hardest $60 I ever made

Moral of the story: always think twice before reckless service!
