Stayed up past midnight counting out cookie boxes for distribution today. I hope all the parents actually show up today. The funny thing is that I have to order several more cases already. I wanted to order more in the beginning and veteran leaders talked me out of it. Now I’m going to run out […]

I’m home! Ahhhhh. I’m going to put on pjs and poor Doug will have to go pick Sarah up from SibShop. Sorry Doug. I am very happy with the amount of cookies we sold at our first booth. 80 boxes! I’m disapponted that none were bought for the charity we are giving to but I […]

Off to check Sarah out of school so she can go with me to see what is involved in picking up 55 cases of cookies. Then to the mall for our very first cookie booth. Wish us luck!

Got up at 7 a.m. (gasp) to tell the children goodbye and read the paper. I’m going to check my e-mail and blog quickly then get dressed and start my panic. Oh, who am I kidding? Everyone knows I’ve been in a panic for days. Today I start my meltdown so that by Sunday night […]

Decided Doug should run his errands first. When he returns I’ll run errands. In the meantime I’m working on getting all the laundry done before tomorrow. Trying hard to stay calm but I really want to flip out. Good news – It looks and feels like spring outside. The robins, cardinals, woodpeckers and other birds […]
