It Had to Happen...

Let's just say that there was a lot going on this week.

Normal Christmas rush at work,

Orders to keep straight,

Lots to do...

Was JWS having surgery?

OR

wasn't he?

Discussions.

A party here on Thursday,

Light up Night on Friday,

Two sets of company on Sunday,

Breakfast at the church on Monday,

Wood for the railing that JWS was going to build

before

Thanksgiving,

Deliveries to be made

and

kids

always kids

underfoot.

So,

all that being said...

it is little wonder

how

WE MISCOMMUNICATED SATURDAY'S DIALYSIS RUN!

That is all it was,

we didn't forget the poor woman,

Lord knows, we realize she is there

and

needs to go.

It was just a series of

conversations,

texts

and phone calls

that

went seriously awry.

It was bound to happen.

You do the math.

Three years of dialysis runs

Three days a week

Four Drivers

Four jobs

Three children under the age of seven now.

Two school buses to meet every day

Two new babies in the time period.

That's 156 runs a year,

over 450 in the past three years

and

WE SCREWED UP ONE!

All was not lost,

we realized 1/2 hour late

when she was sitting in the car waiting,

that someone messed up.

I flew,

hair messed up,

no make-up,

painting clothes

grabbed a sweatshirt

and

flew.

Catastrophe

averted...

The teapot above

was a gift from that blessed woman

for my camper....

and

yet

we still miscommuncated her care! 

I am thinking that we have not heard the end of this.....

Working on these golf club covers for a friend

to give as a gift.

Fun and relaxing.

Not relaxing....

is this little boy who is fast asleep for now.

He is by far the most active of the six.

Wow,

it is batten down the hatches when he arrives! 

Last night,

every feat of

daredevil

agility

gymnastic

death defying

climb and leap.

He would stop and say,

"TA DA!"

What a character!

And this....

JWS bought me this nice charger when he bought my Ipod.

I got another when I got my Iphone.

Then I lost this one.

I didn't want to tell him

he thinks I am scattered enough.

(Refer back to the top of this post to see why)

So,

under the ruse of trying to get my home in order

for the holidays,

I started to

"organize"

drawers,

closets,

cubby holes...

anywhere I could have put it.

Last night, when I went to put Wyatt to bed,

there it was in the spare bedroom

apparently where I left it

at the last

grandchild(ren)

sleepover.

Whew!

And these...

so glad to have these off of my list.

They are not my favorite surface to paint on.

Finished just in time for a new bear and buck season!
