Random...

This has been the longest short week.  There is so much going on at work that the days should be flying by...but they're not.  I'm off to KC Monday and Tuesday to interview some candidates for a administrative support staff for the high-risk pregnancy disease management program at work.  Interviewing non-clinical staff is not my strong point.  I'm never sure what exactly to look for.  When I'm hiring for a nursing position, I can usually read the candidate very well.  Oh well.  I have 5 interviews back-to-back on Tuesday.  Wish me luck!


I've been so in the mood for some Fall shopping.  I spent plenty last weekend, but I only want to shop some more.  Wish the money tree would grow outside my door!!  At least I received coupons for some upcoming sales.  I MUST use the coupons, right????  : )


So last night Chad and I met up with my grandparents, my mom and John at St. Stephen's church picnic in Caseyville.  I've attended this picnic annually for my entire life.  However, this was the first year that I didn't eat the chicken dinner.  My grandfather has always fried the chicken, which is awesome by the way.  I opted for a veggie plate instead of the chicken this year.  (I still haven't consumed chicken since my February incident.)  After dinner we head out into the parking lot and play the silly church games...and as always, take a chance on the Barrel of Booze.  I haven't won it for a few years, so I'm overdue!  : ) 
We always hit up the beer poker stand, the big six wheel and, of course, the quilt bingo area.  Last night we rocked out.  The four of us came away with two six packs of beers, broke even on the big six and $110 from bingo.  (My mom won the $100.)  Way to go Mom!


Today we're planning to head up to the Midwest Wing Fest, where I will watch everyone consume chicken wings.  : )  Then I'm sure we'll head across the parking lot for a little wine tasting at Rick's.  After that our day is open.  Sunday is Vicki's bridal shower, cleaning and packing for KC.


Have a great weekend, y'all!
