check

  • sub plans for tomorrow--check
  • class informed (and warned not to hide behind the trashcans like Ramona did)--check though several students proclaimed their intentions to be sick tomorrow...
  • cast told to expect rehearsal (only seven left...) even though I'm gone during school tomorrow--check
  • rugs vacuumed and washed--check
  • downstairs shower cleared of landlord's tasteless furnishings--check
  • water ordered to be delivered early tomorrow--check
  • cats' claws clipped so they cannot scratch the sw--check
  • alarm set for plenty of time for final touches and zucchini muffins--check
  • "gift" chosen (Kate, you will prepare a gift for this woman, no?) from drawer-o-gifts--check

The Russian sw comes tomorrow

p.s. I'm cherishing secret (well, not-so-secret anymore) hopes that this sw might be able to do my ppr's instead of flying in an American sw. A girl can hope, right?

Hope all goes well tomorrow as those smocked dresses are waiting to be worn by your daughter (s). I'll be anxious to read your posting tomorrow.

Suzanne said...

Just show her all those Hanna dresses and she'll be won over.

Maggie said...

Yay! I'll be thinking of you.

Tami said...

Good luck!

I made chocolate chip cookies - and my sw dug right into them!

Fingers crossed and hoping for the best. :)

Annie said...

Well, I sure hope she can do it! How stupid otherwise. Sheesh!

Gifts. Yes indeedy. I need to adopt another child if only because I am now absolutely programmed to be constantly on the look out for "good gifts"....quality item, on sale, small/lightweight, suitable for all and sundry.

Like your incremental purchase of gifts for the orphanage, I have spent five years searching for "gifts for people who help". I really miss it!

mmm, zucchini muffins. And good thinking on the cat claws, hopefully they will not take a page from my cat's book and BITE the social worker.

I won't wish you good luck 'cause you don't need it! :)

Kate, it will be awesome. Don't worry...just whip up some brownies. Sorry I've been MIA...same story, just buried in work and crap. I will track you down, I promise.
