Warehouse Pickup

Today I planned to pick up our new dishwasher at the store's warehouse. My sales associate gave me printed directions on how to get to the store. I was going to drop by the warehouse at lunch. But a meeting ran late through lunch time.

Next I figured I would go after work to pick up the washer. Guess what? Another meeting was running late. Luckily my meetings are all using conference calls over the phone. I participated in the meeting, but then just dropped off after about an hour. Let's hope they don't miss me.

I was thinking ahead and brought my truck to work. I followed the instructions on the paper. It had me following a road through many turns. I got to one stoplight and realized I needed to make a right turn. Good thing there was no traffic because I made that right turn from the middle lane.

Then I took a drive and my instincts told me I needed to go right. I could not find any street signs at the intersections. I decided to trust my spider sense and turned around. Yep. I had missed a critical turn. Once I got to the warehouse, it was very easy to get my big package. Now let's get this thing installed. That's a story for another time though.

Cookie Time

Little Kat watched his new favorite show "Sunny With a Chance" tonight. However he found time to bake us some cookies. He chose some peanut butter ones.

It seems Little Kat is starting to grow up. He can cook stuff by himself. He knows how to read and follow directions. Many times his food turns out the best of the family.

When Little Kat asked me if I wanted some cookies, I said, "Awww yesh." I can't pass up warm baked cookies on a cold night.
