cabbitzillaAll of the morning running about has been accomplished. I picked up another 21 books at the sale; having managed to forget my list I came out a bit lighter than intended. They've now been scanned in and properly sorted, and they'll get shelved later today.
The meats platter for Lauren's party is safely ensconced in my fridge, along with the 90% ready veggie tray. The tomatoes are set out where they won't be forgotten, as they're the last piece to go on the tray. I was worried that they'd get loose and roll all over the truck while in transit, so they were left in the plastic container. Two sacks of mini Kaiser rolls were picked up from the wholesale club to go with the meats platter.
The cake was delivered to my sister's place this morning around 0930. I know this because it was around then that Leah called and begged me to stop somewhere and get a candle for it. I guess if that's the worst of the last minute OMG!s we're doing just fine. The only other thing missing is mustard (bleah, sorry, I'm allergic to it), and Tommy'll pick that up on the way home from work; he got called in in the wee hours of the morning for an emergency repair.
SOMEWHERE in this tin box I call a home are my heavy crystal vases, and it annoys me highly that I can't find ANY of them. I picked up a dozen mixed roses for Lauren while I was out, and have had to settle for putting them in a water pitcher in lieu of an actual vase. The one I was looking for has a flared and weighted base on it, and is very useful for top-heavy arrangements. Silly thing weighs four or five pounds, but it's amazingly stable. I'll find it. It's here somewhere.
*exhale* Okay, time to bring my checkbook current. I'll be around for a bit if anyone wants to chatter. *hugs/curtsies as appropriate*
