Can't Sleep

Fell asleep after folding the laundry. Woke up at 8.  Decided to write.   It's 3 in the morning and very wide awake.  What happened the past week.  

SUNDAY  7/20
Slept in until 10:30 am.  Got my lesson prepared.  Didn't finish the handouts.  Went to church.  came home  King hungry for his stew.   But oooppppppppsssssss.  NO STEW!  Short storymade  shorter.  Silent Treatment [S.T.].

MONDAY 7/21
S.T.  Recover from camp!  No walk.  Laundry.  Library paid overdue books which I failed to renew because we were at camp.  $11 dues.  Took Warrior 1 and Princess to have their  school ID  taken.

TUESDAY 7/22
Yoga.  Silence broken.  yey!

WEDNESDAY 7/23
 Walk at the beach with Aunty Raine and Princess.  Water was rough.   Grama/Grampa surprise!  

THURSDAY 7/24
The King took the car in to get serviced.  He left at 6 am.  Came back at 9 i think.  Defrosted the freezer.   Went to Mililani got there after 1.  The King helped Dad and Uncle connect the heater.  Went shopping for food.  Had to call Mavis  cancel class  unable to get back for 6pm yoga class.   Ate at zippys...had a Boca Burger for the first time.  Tasted really good.  The King is all in pain.  

FRIDAY 7/25
The king went to work.  Baked some goodies.  Mango bread, brownies, peanut butter bars, chocolate chip bars, banana bread and that's all.  Shopped for the last minute stuff we need for the food fest.   Called the king... "I no mo moneh.  I need your cahd."    Met him at the mall parking lot.  Pick up Generator, foam containers which we got at a Restaurant Supplier in town for the Food Fest and what ever stuff on the list.  Got home at 5...  King was already home.   We pulled on an all nighter.    {i'm getting sleepy..i'll continue later}

SATURDAY  7/26
laters--okay i'm back it is now tuesday 7/29/08 @ 1:30 in the morning  typing in the dark.
Parade!  Food Fest!  crazy morning!  didn't sleep at all..well i take that back.  I  took a nap from 8am to 8:25 am.  Took a hot shower and so i'm awake again.  Food fest is a lot of work.  A lot of stress. A lot of barking. Some tension here.  But a lot of fun!  Just had to make sure that our hot foods stayed hot and cold foods cold.  We sold some baked goods. Mushroom and meat ballssssss, BBQ chicken korean style  with furikake on the rice and the King's renowned chili and rice.  The kids' favorite!  FREE ICEE!!!!  Just bring 4MT bottles and cans!  The King is so clever to have thought of this one.  Some kids were really into it that they kept coming back with empty recyclables in their arms.

It was good.  We got to see friends da Kuriharas from Utah, the Parkers from town  and old  classmates and friends from BYUH days.  

Too bad we didn't even take one picture  to remind us of all our hard work this day.  Thanks to Mom and Dad, to Aunty Wanda and Uncle Al for coming and helping us.  The best part (not!) was when I had to drive the King's truck.   I didn't want to but i was obedient.  You see we brought our upright freezer to store our icee and our mushroom gravy.  Anyway,  had to take it back home so the King put the freezer on one of those wheeled things that help you drag stuff.   Well, I drove like less than 10 m/h and  the King  sat in the back  holding  on to this wheeled thing with the freezer  and just one bungee cord holding it in place while Warrior 1 was doing his share of dragging a cooler.  Helurh!  Not to mention how much noise this wheeled thing produced!  It was almost 11 o'clock ...man it felt like we were having our own 3 vehicle parade.    Oh, and I get yelled at... "slow down!"  "Come on!"  "What's going on, Lady?"  "GO!"   "Stay away from the dirt!"  As we get to Aunty Emma's house the dogs start barking and running towards the truck.  Poor Warrior 1 ...mean dogs scare him.  

 Hey, that was not easy driving around that little circle at byu and in front of the temple.    Glad it's over.
