Long Day

We had to get up way to early this Saturday morning to be at this Scouting thing. Hubby had to work, I'm very glad his Dad went with us and even drove us. The tween's troop did not plan well, I'll add a picture of their booth in a day or so to my fickr pictures. I just don't get why the boys didn't do a better job of planning, I know it's boy run troop, but really they need guidance. I called my nephew that is in the troop also and whined with him, since I knew he'd understand. He hasn't been to many meetings recently due to football. We ended up not staying for our whole shift, since there was nothing to do anyway, and no one was coming over to their booth. We had lunch and walked around a little and the kids did some of the activities, we left at 1. I had to make 2 gallons of chili for church when we got home. It wasn't really that hard, since we decided to use all canned beans, and it was a chicken chili, so we even used canned chicken, but it took me like 20 minutes to open up all the cans and dump them in the pot. Then I laid down for an hour before going to church we had to be there at 4:30. After the chili cook off, we stayed for church, then went to Burger King, I really just wanted ice cream, but the need for Star Wars toys is great at this house. My back is screaming right now with all the standing and walking today. "It's been a VERY long day"
