Busy Bee

The last three days have been so hectic and busy that I wonder if I can do this all the time. It wouldn't be so much if each event wasn't so committed.
On Thursday, I "volunteered" my Smoky Joe for a company BBQ, which in and of itself is pretty benign. However, because I opened my big mouth about catering, I was "volunteered" to assist the execs in their cooking duties. Well, it would have been fine had the execs had an idea on how to grill. Bless their little hearts. But because of novice rank, I ended up running back and forth between grills trying to keep some semblance of order. Fun. Really fun. Honest. Fun.

Friday proved to be a run around day too. Flag ceremonies in the morning, BBQ with mom and her cronies (some of which are two steps short of a walk).... but she decided to move to the "new" Maple House II. She will have a lovely room with patio access and new everything. I think she will really enjoy the change, until she doesn't. Off to cook dinner for the missionaries and ALSO a dinner for a new mom of twins, Melanie Suttner. How could I resist? A boy named Cameron and a girl named Autumn. Sweet, little and a lot of work. Run home, eat dinner, get surprised by a visit from Stephanie and Jimmy and Kaitlin. Now there is a busy bee!!! She is so curious and persistent for answers. I love it. I played on the computer with her and my Webkinz. She was fascinated by the activities and wanted change their clothes every 5 minutes, it was fun.
Off to bed by 11, and totally spent. Do bees go to bed at 11?
