Saturday morning I took Penny to the Yankee Candle store to pick up candles for the kids' teachers and so she could pick out a reward toy for having completed another chore chart. (She talked all the way into the store about getting a kitten, and then wound up facing the wall of stuffed animals and choosing... another dog.)
They had a Santa there, too, so Penny sat with him. I tried to get a couple of pictures, but they made me move behind the line, and by the time I'd ducked under the rope, I didn't have a lot of time. But Penny had fun, so that's the important thing.
That afternoon, of course, was the moon cookie party.
The Hickses came, and John, and Elizabeth. Dave was supposed to come, but completely forgot. Oh, well, more cookies for the rest of us! Penny and Jess had a great time playing together, and it was good to sit around and chat.
Sunday was calmer, the usual hanging around the house and doing chores.
In the meantime, my persistent chest cold and cough is moving upward into my head, meaning I'm coughing a little less, but I have a constant headache and sore throat. So of course, I've got 13 documents and 3 software packages due for delivery this week, and my primary doc specialist is on vacation. And we're traveling in a week! Whee!
