a jam

so the kids are off of school for two days-

teacher convention.

so, we are also off of seminary for two days.

I always have to bring that up, because it is such a major part of my day-

a very early start to it, and to not have it, and to be able to wake up later is a treat.

I had to go to the dentist today- one of my teeth broke last week.

I headed out with plenty of time to get there,

then there was a huge traffic jam on the highway.

I was thinking there must be a serious accident ahead,

and watched the minutes tick by as I inched my way along with all the other semis on the road,

and even pulled out my crocheting I had stashed in my purse, in case I had to wait at the dentists.

turns out there was a truck pulled over- it looked to me like it was unloading something, but I am not sure,

so everyone had to move from three lanes to one,

and I was a half an hour late. sheesh.

I hate being late!

and then I was in the dentist chair for about 5 minutes.

crazy stuff.

this weekend should be fun.

included in the plans are a sleepover for the girls,

a dance for Ben,

skiing for all of us,

watching some cousins for a night and a day,

cleaning the girls room. again.

lots of laundry.

a trip to the library ( and the post office)

dinner on Sunday with family.

good times.
