remembered to take Martha's tablecloth back to her after work....

bought an asst. of old doilies, going to try to make the doily table runner sometime. Kate & I to DG, they have snazzy new bright yellow shopping carts. Taco Thursday at Casa Dailey.

just when I thought I couldn't love AHS Coven even more....

enter The Axeman of New Orleans! (googled it, he's real! how did this not make my guidebooks....or did I just forget?)

Katie to youth group. Kevin spent his evening snoozing in his chair.

to sleep, perchance to dream....

last nites nightmare: yesterdays mandatory council cookie training was held in an abandoned mental asylum. had to go thru an apocalypse type town with half the streets missing (different halves in different sections), bombed out houses, wandering zombies....when you registered, you mingled with massively bleeding dazed wandering patients, harried medical staff, med carts, call lights....and some kind of insane post break up fight between two participants, one wandering around just wrapped in a sheet...

the way it actually went down....got off work in time to feed outside critters and change shoes, texted and called kevin to se if he could pick up Katie so I could meet my ride....he was working cows. so picked her up 'on the way' and was a bit late, then the other carpooler wanted to stop for supper....we got there at 6:06 and just missed some of the intros and video you couldn't hear anyway.....got to spend the evening making snarky comments and complaining, so it wasn't a TOTAL waste of time...cookies will be $4/box this year. start selling Jan. 1. somehow I am the county cookie person. whatever. I tried to cop out being a busy working mom, no dice. will just have to muddle thru it.

today Katie was one of the FFA kids who presented the flag at the Veteran's Day program at school.

wish I could've seen it. she made it thru the day with her 'new' hair and held her head high. blustery wind and supposed to snow.

my favorite book boy is Johnny from The Outsiders.....(thanks facebook post for jarring my memory on this one!)

weekends off go so quickly....already Sunday afternoon. took lengthy couch naps Friday and Saturday nites, and slept WWWWWAAAAAYYYY late today, then did some housecleaning, made roast and taters for lunch, & Kevin took Katie out for her first target practice. think I'm ready for GS pie baking after Kevin goes to work.

Saturday

picked up Katie from her sleepover, brought her home to get ready for her hair appt. She wanted a drastic change. she had pictures on her phone. Brooke did what she asked, Katie was devastated. on our way out of Trenton she called Brook, but got her husband. she came home, took a shower, dried her tears, and went to see Chase. Her hair is her pride and joy. She thinks she is a great head of hair, she doesn't realize she is so much more.

today Katie & I pulled into the cemetery on the way home so I could take a picture of the stone my great grandparents purchased. My great grandfather Johnnie was originally buried here, but after Great Grandma Daisy moved to California, she had Grandpa moved out there. They gave the plot to my parents, but they have opted for cremation. This is a quiet little cemetery right off Highway 65, up on the hill. We had a picnic while we were there with our McDonalds takeout, I shared with Katie how I think I read how people in the old days would have a picnic in the cemetery on Decoration Day, then decorate their graves

talked to Koren, she thinks she has found the perfect outfit for baby to wear home from hospital.

Kevin called me at 4:30 a.m. to pick him up...car had died other side of 2 & 65 Junction.

so he ran me to work and picked me up....Willis has the car in looking at it....Katie got a ride to her sleepover. I did a Chopped supper.....(Katie chopped me, didn't plate fast enough). now I am home alone for the nite...

Koren posted her maternity pictures...they are AMAZING! she is the perfect glowing pregnant girl with 'busted biscuit feet.' I always looked like a zombie when I was pregnant....

Larry got the car fixed and brought it home tonite! talk about service!
