Looks like the Fire Chief has decided that he wants to get me more "involved" in the goings on of the fire department. While I don't sit around and not train, I do try to take classes, but am turned down. Sooo, I found out last month that he was thinking of sending me, and DH to the instructors conference in Indianapolis, IN. I just looked at him and said, "I am NOT an instructor nor do I plan to be one!". He just looked at me and said okay, but you're going. If you want you can bring your boys, we'll reserve a room next yours but you pay for it.
So today DH brought home the regestration forms and the booklet. They actually have some very good classes. Chief also doesn't want DH and I to take the same classes. DH is a Captain and I'm a Firefighter so there are many classes that don't pertain to me as I'm not an "officer" and many that don't pertain to him as he is no longer in the "trenches fighting fire". We are not taking the boys, they would have to be out of school for a week, right after spring break, which is when they take major tests. So DMIL will be coming over to stay with them after they get home from school each day until they get on the bus in the morning.
So anyway, I don't plan on being in classes all day everyday for a week. I do plan on shopping!!!! (DMIL wants some quilt fabric, so have to find at least one quilt store) Has anyone been shopping in Indianapolis? Are there any good scrapbook stores or rubber stamp stores? I would sure appreciate any info. I need to dig out some of my magazines and look in them for stores as well. But I thought that if I could get confirmation that would be even better. Thanks all!
