Game Night

Friday

I got up after 8. I brushed my teeth and got dressed. I took supplements. I got online but the power blinked and the internet went out. I texted Chris. Then I printed out a page of Christmas math. I sprayed my car windshield with alcohol. I did a few last errands, then drove to the chapel.

Karen pulled up beside me with Saronna's kids. I unlocked the door and we all went in. Only Moira had math so Karen brought crafts for the other kids. When they were done, they went to the nursery to play. Moira worked as fast as she could. They stayed late and I had plans to go cleaning at 10 so I shooed them out at 10:20.

I went to 638 and worked on the front door and baseboards. At noon, I went home and started the breakfast procedure. I ate while catching up on e-mail. Then Michelle called to see if I was ready to go. She came over and checked on her dehydrated sweet potatoes. She brought the snack she was trying to emulate. I thought it was close.

Then we left them there, and I got in her car and we went to Tooele. She dropped me off at Melanie's while she went to Great Clips to get my name on the list. As I was checking out, she came back. She used their restroom and brought me back the toilet paper tube. We went to Great Clips and they called my name in less than a minutes. As I was getting my hair cut, I said Dugway needed a hairdresser once a week. A lady spoke up to say that would be perfect for her. She gave her card to Michelle. If it works out, that's my gift to Chris.

After the haircut we went to Macey's. I got some groceries but they didn't have everything. So then we went to WalMart. I got a watch and some bananas. But they didn't have much in the way of black earrings.

We headed back to base, chatting the whole way. We stopped at her house to let the dog out. Electra was happy to be home. Then we went to my house. I brought in my groceries and she collected up her sweet potato chunks. Then she left.

I ingested the last of the fiber gel. I heated the last of the chili. I made a carrot salad and ate while listening to something and checking e-mail. Chris called and we talked. Then I worked on my blog. I was still hungry but so full of fiber that I couldn't eat.

At 8:25 I pushed myself away from the computer. I made tea, then watered the plants. Then I went to Game Night. Michelle was all excited over planning a trip to France. She wants to stay in a castle and is inviting people to go along. She'd like me to come. I played the game, finishing the original version and turning my attention to the first expansion pack. I tried to use the toran, distance and elevation figures to find the last markers, but none of the places I went seemed to be close, although the library did give me a red blinker. But no marker.

It was after 11 when I left. I was in a hurry to get home and did not stop at the stop sign. I got pulled over for it and did not have my license on me. But I did have registration and insurance. Finally he let me go and I went home, jotted notes for my blog, and went to bed.
