The weekend was too busy!!! Between birthday party and getting up really early 3 days in a row, this grandma needs a nap. Is she going to get one? NO!
I have Kelsa and Will here as Signe' and Nate had their flight cancelled out of Miami yesterday. They finally got out this morning and are In Seattle awaiting flight to Spokane. I should see them after 3 today.
So yesterday I got a call from Brittany to meet her in Colfax which is halfway between here and Spokane. Both kids were teary and upset as they were missing their folks and William was sick. Having the flight delayed was more than they wanted to handle.
We stopped at their house and Will was sick again and I just cancelled all my plans and stayed up in Colton overnight, then up early to meet Kay at the car repair place. Now I am home with both kids. Just heard from Sig and Nate. Anyway, best laid plans out the window.
I have so much sewing to do today, as I was not good last week. So of course, I am under pressure now and will get things done.
Tomorrow Kay and I are driving my next-door neighbor to Victoria. She has Parkinson's and needs to get some banking done that she can't get done over the phone. I hope this is not a wasted trip and I am not at all excited about doing this, but we agreed we would. I just don't feel like being out of town for the next three days. Oh well, it is an adventure.
So, let's make a list and see if I can get all this done today, Yikes!
1. hem three jeans
2.hem 2 jeans
3.alter a dress blue
4.hem a mother of the bride dress
5. alter a jacket
6. hem and waist two pairs of pants
7.hem two mothers of the bride dresses
8. alter a bridesmaid dress
9. alter neckline on dress
I would love to clean my car, but it is supposed to be over 100 again today. I do have to go pick all the tomatoes that are ready in the garden and also the eggplant I will freeze the tomatoes and process the eggplant when I get home. I would also like to make a shrimp salad for a man in our ward who just had a heart attack. He loves my shrimp salad. I should have made it yesterday, but those plans were blown out of the water. Oh well this list is way too dang long.
Headed out to pick the garden already gathered the eggs.
Have a great and productive day
God is good
Kim
I see no wedding dresses on that ;ist - so that is good. I truly think you thrive under pressure. Take care
ReplyDeleteWedding dresses are next week! Yeah!
DeleteI am riding with my sister to Carrolton Ga tomorrow to do some banking that Bank of America is requiring an in person visit to ID herself. If it does not work, brace for an quake that might be heard west of the Mississippi because I think she might spontaneously explode
ReplyDeleteI remember feeling that way after Joel died. It is a rat race and I am not a rat!
DeleteI think you do amazing Kim, with all that you cram in to your days. I feel like I need a nap sometimes just reading what you achieve!
ReplyDeleteWell I know I need a map.
DeleteMy dear, you are simply amazing at how much you manage to get done. Some people think I am the energizer bunny, but you have the crown. Just do not over tire yourself or you could end up ill like I was.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
I know you and I need to listen to our inner voice. Not the crazy one the sane one...:)
DeleteYou are one busy women! I cleaned my car out last week. I went out really early in morning. Oh, what a mess!
ReplyDeleteMy car desperately need love, but I am going huckleberry picking and it will get destroyed with dust I will wait.
DeletePlease post your shrimp salad recipe soon!
ReplyDeleteWill do!
DeleteOnce, I had your energy, but I was 50 years younger than now! One hour at pt exhausted me to the point I could barely walk and had brain fog.
ReplyDeleteYou will get your strength back.
DeleteHello, sweet lady! You know, if I had a choice of a neighbor/friend, i choose you! You do some many wonderful things for others. I need to borrow some of your talents too. Have a good afternoon. Stay cool!
ReplyDeleteThanks Billie, I ask myself how sis I get into this position?
DeleteI’m with Billie Joe and would love to have you as a neighbor.
ReplyDeleteI would love to have you as a neighbor!
DeleteOh, Kim! Holy smokes! Hugs!!
ReplyDeleteI know, I know, why me I ask?
DeleteDitto what Maxine aka mikemax and Belinda and Billie Jo said. -Rosa R.
ReplyDeleteThanks Rosa, but really.... I need a brain scan.
