Work Hard, Tradeshow Harder

I remember back when I was dating Greg, and as part of the family business he did a few trade shows every year. I would attend with him and after listening to him speak to customers for an hour or so I would feel confident enough to reverberate his spiel and feel like I was the resident expert speaking about different species of wood and various stain colours. I have come to realize there is a lot more to it than that! Greg and I have put in a lot of years together. Dating when we were 17 and 18 years old, getting married at 22 and 23 and now coming up on our 14 year wedding anniversary. I rem ..read more

Day 1- Tweed to Baltimore, MD Originally, I was planning on leaving around 6am but Eddie spent Friday night and Saturday at his friend’s cottage so he slept in a little bit. We hit the road around 7:30am. Our first stop was for fuel at the Husky truck stop in Joyceville. Eddie had to go to the bathroom. I turned my head for a minute and when I looked over, he was trying to get high enough to use the urinal by pushing himself up while touching the urinal.

Day 1 – Sunday May 12th (Home to Columbus, Ohio) 920 Kilometers My initial plan was to leave at 3 a.m. on Monday and drive through the day so I could spend the entire day Sunday with Emma and the kids. Leaving on Mother’s Day was not my ideal situation. That being said, Emma is one of the sweetest people of all time and she didn’t want me driving 16 hours in one day. It ended up working just fine and I was able to spend the majority of the day with Emma and the kids. We went to the park, had a picnic and it was one of those wholesome family days that I absolutely love. I ended up leaving at 3 ..read more
