One more week....

The countdown begins. I am stupidly not panicked yet. By about Thursday, I should be there good and well.

The flower lady never called me back, so today, I waded out into the rain and went to Costco, hoping to catch her. I didn't. But I did find the guy who gave me her phone number last week. He went to find out some info for me, and came back with the assistant warehouse manager. I think the man recognized me because he has worked there as long as I have been going there, about ten years. So he pulled out his cellphone and tried calling the flower lady. She answered for him. He talked to her a minute, and then handed me the phone. I gave her my order, and all is set up now. I picked up stuff I needed, and rowed home. It is STILL raining...

Yesterday, we did cream cheese mints, and the day before I did the cheese straws. I did a trial run on the recipe for the groom's cake, and I am going to do another test of it today. It turned out incredibly delicious, but not much to look at. Supposedly, the nuts are essential to it turning out well, but Justin doesn't like nuts, and neither does Laura...

My mother in law called this morning. I am not sure why, but she wanted to talk to me. I must have answered her question, but I can't remember now what it was. She did make some comment about me not being able to get everything done, which I stood up to. She instantly backed down on it, so I felt good about that.

Today is Justin's bachelor party, so I am assuming I will lose James' help this afternoon. I had a list of chores, but everyone has gone off. Looks like I am going to have to do it all myself.

Curses! Foiled again!
