We'll be packing up and leaving for Utah first thing Thursday morning. Lot's to do to get ready to go. We stopped last night and got a car restraint to try out on the cats. It's kind of cute with a sheepskin pad on the harness for their comfort. I slipped it on Chip and he lost it. He ripped around the house until I could catch him. By that time, Putt had a clue and was steering clear of me and Chip. Riley thinks it's nuts and they should be free to roam but I want them secure. So we'll try it on Putt today and see how she does with it.
I was watching the food channel this morning. I need to come up with a dish to take to the family reunion and I need it to be good since basically I only eat what I bring. I don't trust other people to have clean kitchens or wash their hands... especially those with kids in diapers, who only use the wipes to clean their hands after changing their kids and forego hot water and soap. Both are disgusting and seriously unhealthy. The food also sets out for a while so I don't want anything with eggs or mayo. Still working on "it" but saw a great looking corn salad with lots of real blue cheese in it. Yum!!! There's always a lot of the "on the way out of town stop at the convenience store gross cakes or pies that never even get opened (wonder why) so maybe I'll opt for a dessert. We'll see. We also are supposed to bring a "white elephant". I am unsure why anyone wants more of somebody else's junk but we'll probably take a DVD for our contribution. We have a few that have been given to us that we have never had any interest in watching but maybe somebody else will want to. They are all still unopened so the winner will have hit the jackpot!
I have to pull some DVD's and books together to take for us as well. I have bought a couple new books and forced myself not to read and a several new DVD's. We don't have TV there so we have to bring our own entertainment.
That's about it for now. It's 10:00am and only 102 degrees. That's great. Maybe our record breaking temps are over. Pool temp is down to 91 degrees.
