Wow What a Week and it isn't over yet

It was crazy time here, my two grandsons (11-13) came to stay, unexpectedly, for 3 days. We had events scheduled one right on top of the other, in the middle I get a call from the school....101 fever and needs picked up immediately...panic calls and finally got a ride, the event was very slow and generally a waste of time, but on to the next, had to pick up child 2 at school, go to the grocery. (Didn't know my little Pontiac could hold so much stuff and 3 people...amazing!!), change inventory and then off to event number 2. We had to split up because I also had a client for computer training, dropped 1/2 group off, took off to my clients house....back to the mall to pick up my Chocolatiers, on the way home phone rings....they forgot books....U TURN...back to the mall, finally get home to find out grandson 1 has developed a cough to go with the fever....back in the car and off to the drugstore. Finally dropped into bed at 11:30....I AM TOO OLD FOR ALL OF THIS! This morning had to be at the Dr's office at 8:00 for blood work...regular nurse took the day off (I may never speak to her again.) The replacement just couldn't seem to hit a vein.....2 tries later and in my hand finally BLOOD. Granny was not feeling well, had to deal with her.....Boys finally just got picked up at 9:15 and I am going to bed. Tomorrow is another full day. At least Amy sold a big cable package so today isn't a total loss....Good for her!! GOOD NIGHT

What to do on a rainy Wednesday

So much for the picnic...cancelled. So today I get to break out the spoons and do some cooking. I need to try more of the chocolate so when I open my mouth to speak I will know of what I speak. Of course I already know that Dove Chocolate is to die for, but it also should have the power to beat the blues. They say it is almost as good as having "whoopie"...if you get my drift. So this will be a good day for experimenting. Some guy on TV wants me to buy expensive salt...WHY! I love savory dishes but I am not sure how to use chocolate in these type of dishes, any suggestions???? Maybe expensive salt makes everything better?
