Plans Changed

I thought today would be an easy trip in to handle the catering for a wedding and wedding luncheon that was happening upstairs.  That turned in to something different.  Oh, I did the wedding upstairs.  It was crazy trying to pull that together but I got help from mom and also from Ashley.  Roped in a few others as well in an effort to get the food up on time.  It all worked out and I believe they enjoyed it quite a bit.  After getting all the food up and things going well upstairs I came downstairs and found that things were suddenly in a mess.  We were missing sandwich orders that had been up for awhile and we were missing one of our cooks.  He had left and so I had to jump on the line.  It is fun and it is stressful and sometimes when I have other plans and have to set them aside because the restaurant I get a little frustrated.  So I ended up working for 7 hours today.  Wonderful.  I ended up leaving two kids at home alone all day and the third stuck in the office watching videos.  That isn't a very adventurous Saturday.  And so tomorrow the restaurant is closed.  I love that.  I love that we get that one day of rest in a week.  I am grateful for the Sabbath and look forward to that tomorrow.  I might even squeeze in a nap, maybe.  It's hard to say, plans change.
