my carrot salad is in the refrigerator

now for clean up from that

I may not make the acorn squash but will make the banana bread - I still need to shower, finish shirt, throw dd youngers laundry in the dryer as she fell asleep last night before she could do it. Dd older is here and she went to the gym.

sorry there was no reconciliation. sorry he didn't donate. - I have worked with a family foundation before and sometimes it is tricky. I hope you can help the next family. Are they still trying to help the refugees that are here - is that their reasoning. I hope it all works out.

I enjoyed the walk this morning with DGS21 and DS9. DD was a no-show.

Afterwards, we went to WM to get DS9 a belt. His new jeans are getting loose and he kept having to pull them up today. WhooHOO!! We spent over an hour reading ingredients on food looking for what is available with no dye. We found 4 kinds of cereal that DS9 found interesting that didn't have dye. We bought 3 kinds of pudding with no dye. DS9 was wanting to try Naked Juice drinks until I offered him the ability to make our own juice so we bought carrots, celery, apple, beets, and greens. I'll set my champion juicer up later today and let DS9 experiment with it.

Next up -
** make dough for pizza and let it rise
** set champion juicer up
** remove the individual molds from soup in freezer

Dh called this morning just before I was going out. He was letting me know they had dropped off the rental car and were waiting for the shuttle to the airport.

We chatted.

I left for my meeting. I had shut down FB when I packed up my computer last night and it turns out I missed the posts about how the roads were closed and they couldn't get back to Reykjavik. Ds also posted some pretty impressive (i.e. scary) videos of the high winds and the comment that it was hard to sleep when the building is creaking like crazy and the homeowner was saying he'd never experienced such high winds and was worried.

Turns out, the fact that they were almost to the airport was important. I just said, "that's nice."

So, not being connected saved me a whole lot of worry today. Woot! I knew there was a reason I had no intention of wanting to hear from them until they arrived back in Canada.

When I said that to my sister on Sunday (while they were driving in the storm to her place) she said, you mean once they get to Iceland. She figured nothing dangerous would be on the schedule for their time in Iceland. Uhmmmm, nope. I know them too well. They had intended to rent a car and go off on their own, including hiking in winter, so I knew they could easily get into trouble and I didn't want to be worrying over them like I did when they went to Kilimanjaro.

Dh knows I'm off to bed on time tonight and not waiting up. Good thing, I see their flight is delayed an hour so that makes it at least 1 a.m. when they get in here.

Here's an article on the winds:

I just know they were on the east side of the island but how far east, I don't know.

Those done.

Next up -
** get leaves out of swim pool
** start pumping water out of pool
** Put away all pool toys, floats, goggles, etc

OH Kathryn! That does NOT sound like weather to have fun in. I'm glad they are on their way home.
