Best Laid Plans









So the plan was to get a little bit of an early start (early for us).  And naturally that didn't happen.  We skipped breakfast intending to eat fresh donuts at the farmer's market.  Stopped to pick up Mom and she was still asleep.  Took her a little longer than it has been.  Then the whole way in we heard about how she needs a hat and a shirt for the sun and breakfast.  Yup.  I forgot them.  After we picked up Uncle Jerry we made it down town about 45 minutes later than planned.  We went down the line at the market and did not find the donuts.  Then Mom needed a break and the kids found the playground.
Uncle Jerry bought cherries and then told us that Mom wasn't doing too well and we should go somewhere else to eat since there were no donuts.  So we did that.  Had a nice lunch at Shari's and then deposited every one back to their homes.
Then we made our trip to the store and drove to Longview.  Got the rest of Mike's stuff delivered.  Then I made an impromptu trip to Klineline.  When the kids got dressed in the morning they were told they would get to play in the fountan at farmer's market.  Well that didn't happen.  So instead we stopped at Klineline and they played on the splash pad and the playground.  They had a good time.
Even though we had good plans, they just didn't work out.  Instead we did two parks in one day and we know that Mom can't do outings like that anymore.  We just roll with it.
