Too much to do so I'm avoiding it all
I haven't updated about anything of any importance recently and whether this qualifies is questionable. I have been workplace-free since 12:30pm yesterday and I'm not going back till Monday. Yay! Of course, the reason I took off is so that I could cook and clean and otherwise prepare for my party Saturday. I'm not doing so good with that. I have this bad feeling that the party's not going to happen. They keep threatening a big storm over the weekend. Bleh.
And of course, something always has to go wrong. This morning my downstairs neighbor came to my door to let me know that one of my radiators is leaking into his apartment. So far I have called building management twice. If I knew who serviced our radiators I'd just call them myself. My mom thinks it might be the plumbers so I think I'll call them tomorrow morning. Meanwhile, I've got some towels on the floor.
So, back to the party, I haven't even fully come up with a menu yet! How much do I suck? Okay, while I'm thinking about it The famous church cookies are already made and I plan on making pink mini-cupcakes so that takes care of the sweet stuff. Of course I'll be making salsa and there will be tortilla chips. I'm thinking about making deviled eggs but am not 100% about this. See, I was going to not make wrap sandwiches this year but the thing is everyone really really likes them. So I went ahead and bought the lavash bread but I also bought cocktail bread so I could make something a little different. Also there will be baked brie and probably roasted garlic and other cheeses and crackers. Damn, hungry now. And still unsure about the deviled eggs. I think the problem here is I really want them so maybe I should just make some for myself.
I had a doctor's appointment this morning. I love my nurse practitioner - she rocks. But now, in an effort to figure out what's going on with my frequently upset tummy, I have to keep a food diary for my follow-up appointment in January. If I am truthful, and I know it's important to be so, I don't know who's going to be more horrified - the doctor or me. I can picture it now...
9:30am - sweet-tart
9:33am - sweet-tart
9:39am - 2 M&Ms
Also, because I finally got around to doing the photo hosting thing
