Odds and Ends

We were supposed to pick up Violet's incentives from selling Girl Scout cookies and turn in the bank receipts for the money yesterday. But I got an e-mail from the cookie chair saying that Violet's stuffed dog wasn't in yet and I might as well wait and go over later to get it all at once. Since that was the main thing she's looking forward to getting we're waiting. I just wish she'd told me that before I told Violet we were going to get them. We decided that that stuffed dog was on the truck to go to the cookie chair's house. But then he got off the truck to chase butterflies and it left without him. I assured her we WILL get her incentives. There are always missing items. I don't know why, but there always are.

Not only are we supposed to get snow flurries tomorrow. Now we are under a winter storm watch. We could get 5-7 inches of snow tomorrow. We might not be driving up to Wisconsin until Saturday morning. If at all.

That'd be a real kicker if we didn't make it there. First we took two weeks to decide if we were going or not. Then Mr. Incredible's step mom and his dad have contacted us trying to figure out what to make for Easter dinner. Mr. Incredible isn't a vegetarian, but he practically is. He won't eat beef, pork, veal, lamb, shell fish, anything weird, mushrooms or eggs. Some of the foods are because of health reasons. Others because they gross him out. He's a challenge to cook for. But he doesn't expect anyone else to give up all that stuff just because of him. He'll eat bread and side dishes and be fine. It has been a royal to do assuring them of that. But step mom is making a turkey (one of the few meats he'll eat) instead of the ham she's made every other year probably her entire life.

My Rainbow Resources order is on the truck for delivery today! If you need me I'll be sitting on my front porch waiting for it.
