tuesday thoughts

I had several errands to run in Orem today. Unfortunately, I was one of the poor souls stuck on southbound 1-15 this afternoon. Two lanes of the freeway were closed to fix a pothole apparently. This had traffic backed up and basically at a stand still for miles. What should have been a fifteen minute trip took an hour. Fortunately, I had thought to bring my ipod Touch so Nathan and Sawyer were completely happy in the back seat.

I went to Barnes and Noble to pick out a book for tomorrow's Book Club exchange. Unfortunately, they did not have Jimmy Zangwow's Out of this World Moon Pie Adventure. Fortunately, they did have What's New Cupcake.

I picked up a five gallon bucket of coconut oil. Unfortunately, now I have to figure out what do with all that coconut oil. Fortunately, it lasts for a long time and I'm in a health food kick right now.

I picked up another group buy order of grass-fed beef. Unfortunately, I have thirty-three pounds to store in my freezer. Fortunately, it all fit!

I picked up Dave's clarinet from Bert Murdock. Unfortunately, it cost over $200 to repair. Fortunately, he is so totally excited about having it back. Since he almost never spends money on himself, it was totally worth it.

Unfortunately, these errands took a lot longer to complete than I wanted. Fortunately, I still made it home early enough to get Slade off to Scouts and dinner in the oven on time.
