Since I'm not basking in the need to organize everyone else's projects and since the snow-trip is off and we're in town, I've come up with alternate plans/activities for the weekend. The hubby will be off at Joe-Con after I get home from the gym each morning with a possible side-trip to Q-zar w/ N. But once I get home the kids and I are planning
1. plan on having a tea-party (setting table and getting dressed nice and making tea sandwiches and having cookies).
2. plan on making candy and cookies
3. I foresee the three of us piling into the shed for a Strawberry Shortcake/Iron Man jam session.
4. Foray to Ysa's to do some sewing magic over there.
5. Going away party for Timmy
6. Attacking the yard w/ clippers and weed destruction devices.
Sadly, I may have to go into work for a few hours on Monday. I took it as a vacation day, but the project is demanding my presence. If that's the case, I'm letting my boss know and then asking for a half off day on the following Wed so I can go home early.
