Scrambling

Well, it's been a crazy day/night.  I am leaving in the morning, so everything had to be tied up today.  I did my best.

This evening, I had to go to the dry cleaners, fill the gas tank, and get home.  Natalie had a school program tonight.  It was fun to see her and her class sing, but....well, Mother-of-the-year I'm not, so here goes.  "Just let my kid sing, and let me leave.  I don't care about the other classes or the other kids.  Oh, and the music teacher shouldn't rag on the kids in front of the parents, that makes her a witch."  OK, I'm done. 

We got home and I started packing.  I'm going to be in Pasadena for 3 1/2 days for a trade show.  The girls are going South to Grammy's for that time, for spring break, so they needed packed, too.  Kevin helped a bunch there.  All of us girls will need to pack toiletries in the morning.  All of the stuff we need to get ready tomorrow, will be needed while we're gone.  I just KNOW I'll forget something.  They have WalMart in Pasadena, right?

I have clothes, camera, batteries, battery charger, PC cable, phone, phone charger, business cards, door prizes, and hotel confirmation info.  I'll stop at WalMart in the morning for Pringles and Chips Ahoy (don't travel without them) and Diet Coke (I won't pay $1 a can at a hotel for something I can get by the 12 pack much cheaper. 

I hope I don't forget anything, but if I do, I'll get by.  Meals and such are paid for.  I'll have internet in the room and quite a bit of down time to relax.  Kevin won't have the girls to worry with, so he'll get to relax, too.  Mom will get some much-needed time off, to do her thing.  The girls will get a little change of pace, and Brett will have the car to visit friends.  It's going to be a good 4 days. 

"Wheels up" at 11.  I'll be ready.  See ya tomorrow night, from Sunny California.
