#76 - Friday Garage Sale - Aug 17, 2012

Got to work this morning to find that instead of the “how in the world are we going to put people on every task that needs done?” situation, we had a “what in the world are we going to find for all of these people to do all day?” situation.  Happy happy news.  Still have a few machines that need extra focus, but both of them look like they’re on their way to being fixed.  It takes a while from the time you fix a machine until you can verify that it is fixed.  It’s usually several days.

And then one of our team made a mistake and cost us a part that was hard to find.  We’ll see if we can get it here quickly or not.

Mom had spent most of the day with the kids working on projects, and that was cool.  And we found out that Aki and Tim are coming over tomorrow for the weekend, and that will be really nice.  Katrina and mom went out garage saling (we have always used this as a verb in my house) and came back with a few things, but the big find was a snowblower.  Katrina had called from the garage sale to ask if she should buy it.  I told her yes when she told me the original price and the sale price and what shape it was in.

Aria and mom made pizza for dinner.  It was excellent.  Aria has cooked the entire week so far, and she finishes on Sunday.  It’s part of her personal progress project for church, and it has been pretty great.  She has learned a lot, I haven’t had to make dinner, and she’s spent a lot of time with my mom.
