FL ladies - anyone going to scrapbook expo in Tampa?

I started getting a flurry of emails about expo today (um...a little notice would have been more helpful! LOL). Anyway, I was thinking about maybe going Saturday. Give the girls to DH for the day (oh my! Can he manage to feed them and play with them for a whole day??)

Anyone going?

I believe M-C and Susan are supposed to be going on one day, I think.

I am going on Friday and taking three classes. I believe that Susan and I have one class in common. I may be going on Saturday but am not sure yet or at what time. When are you going Michelle?

If I go, it would have to be on Sat so Mitch can take care of the girls. Otherwise he would have to take Friday off. Don't think he would do that...well he would if I really wanted him to, but....

When I went last time we went on Friday and it was nice because it wasn't so crowded. The classes were horrible though. Eyelets were the new thing (in

Michelle - where were you when we met up in Orlando? Did something keep you away from us? Boo -hoo. We could've met you - Oh well you're not too far away.

General admission starts at 11am I think. Before that is for VIPs who took

3 classes or more. I believe that will give me 30 minutes to shop before the doors open, since I have a class from 9:30 till 10:30 It's all about Technique by Leisure Arts (I think they are a Little Rock Company), 11 till 12:30 Absolutely Deluxe ...color bloking and then 2:30 till 3:30 Life's Journey LOs from K and Company).

I belive that Susan and I are both in the color bloking class that lets out at 12:30 and that we will be looking to have lunch and do more shopping before I head of to the Life's Journal class at 2:30. Just a thought, but

12:30 /12:35 might be a good time for all of us that are going to meet up somewhere near the entrance.

The same thing happened in Chicago in 2002. It was made even worse because the classes were in TENTS on the convention floor and only a thin layer of canvas seperted us. Also there was no time between classes. They all went 1 hour with no time to get to another.

But do you think these problems will stop me from going this year when it comes to Chicago in Sept.

NO! LOL

Michelle....I'll be there on Friday morning. I'm taking 1 class, doing some shopping that I don't need to do, meeting up with MC for a little while then coming home. Wish you could be there Friday! Can't go Sat and have to be home early since my Dad and his wife will be coming to the house. They have sold the condo in Indian Shores and will be on their way back to GA. The good news is that they are having a home built in Sun City Center which is much closer to me than Indian Shores is!

Wish you

Patty.......believe it or not Michelle and I think we sat next to each other in a class at Expo in 2002 and didn't even know it until we got back home and on the NG! Talk about being disappointed that you didn't get to meet someone!

And isn't it par for the course that she is planning to come to Tampa on Sat and I will be heading to Orlando later that day for my nephew's First Communion!

Michelle....if you come Sat a.m......call me!!! I'll email you my phone #. Hugs S

This is the same way the classes were here in 2002. Last year was a little better. We'll see how this year goes! S

I read this and thought it said 'doing some shopping that I need to do' (this is how bad I want to go shopping)
