RCHS Kids-For-A-Wish Week
RCHS raised $19,301.50 in ONE minute last Friday (02/20/15)!
Went to Chipotle tonight for RCHS Wish Week. Ashley & William realized “their kid” arrived, so Ashley held the line (she was next) and Will went to get Jeremy & Mom. William made an announcement and escorted them to the front where another patron beat them to purchasing their meal.
[NOTE UPDATE: several have asked, It’s the Chipotle on Lincoln]

Chinese New Year Dinner with Leung’s
[pics incl] We went out to dinner with Kevin and Shirley, et. al. Although yesterday was actually Chinese New Year (Sheep), it was going to be to crazy so we decided to go this weekend. (And by “we” I mean Kevin and Jeff 😉 ). Then the snow storm was headed this way so tonight it is! We are all taking random pictures of the food and texting across the table 😉 (I know, that’s totally inappropriate but all of us wanted to document the crazy food! Don’t ask me what any of it is, most of it was seafood/shellfish and I didn’t eat any of those meals. When the fish (Sea Bass) came out, everyone just stared at it until, we all decided that Kevin should “do something.” He very masterfully, de-boned dinner. Apparently, you are supposed to give “gifts” on Chinese New Year but since none of our Chinese speaking children told us, we didn’t know that! It’s kinda like going to a gift exchange… without a gift!
I don’t know about everyone else, but I thoroughly enjoyed learning about the dishes (even if I didn’t eat them) and watching some of their reactions to “umm… interesting…” foods! Great company, as always. Kevin and his sister, Jessica felt compelled to take photos with Ashley and William because they dressed up for the occasion.
Ashley saw the fish tank and wanted to take them home but I’m pretty sure they wanted to eat her because they swarmed as she was standing there next to the tank.
From now on, I’m always sitting next to Kevin because he just reaches over and refills your drinks whenever he likes! Actually, he was making sure I didn’t touch anything that might have shellfish on it, since they were eating that shellfish meal (many with their hands). I successfully made it through dinner without any reactions…. but I brilliantly reached out and shook all their hands as we were leaving and by the time I got home, my hands and feet were swelling up pretty bad. (It’s hard to take a photo of your swelling hands while your hands are swollen, so you got my feet!). By the time I finished taking the photo, I need lots of antihistamine and a shower because my face/mouth was next on the swelling list. All better now!

Off to China, Again
[pics incl] It’s 4am, MT and Courtney and Claudia are off to China to finish their sophomore year of studies. They are old pros at this now! [NOTE: on of those suitcases is entirely full of “American” foods]
[NOTE: 02/21/15 Well…. obviously I should look at my pictures before posting them (or walking away from people you won’t see again for months). I’m gonna play the 4am card ;-P ]
Still Working on Figuring “Me” Out
I’m still trying to keep my days fairly regular [ http://blog.scottsontherocks.com/blog/2015/01/29/trying-to-make-days-about-the-same/ ] and I think overall it is helping.
I have worked a few times at Magic Rabbit and while I think I am awful, Shirley has not fired me… yet. [ http://blog.scottsontherocks.com/blog/2015/01/30/testing-my-skills/ ] I definitely need a cheat sheet! It’s completely repetitive work so unless there is something unusual, I just do the exact same thing, over and over. 🙂
My memory is still flakey and we cannot figure out what I will remember and it seems random what I will (will not) remember. So you still have to bear with me on the memory stuff!

Ashley’s Whiskers
[pics incl] Ashley said “If I lie on the floor will you pet me?… I’ll make whiskers.” “UMM, No, but I will take a picture as proof of this conversation!” Peanut decided she looked comfy.
[NOTE 02/09/15: Ashley sends strange texts throughout the day, this seems like a fitting place to put this one 🙂 ]
Updating Addresses
Well, I used to be good at keeping in touch and now I’m struggling with addresses. If you moved in the past couple years, will you please email me? I never finished Christmas cards and we are still working on Heather’s announcements. I seem to only be able to spend a short time on the computer. I plan to just keep plugging away (with some help) so you may just get a Happy St. Patrick’s Day note (would not be my first 😉 )
I realize we are doing things backwards and/or extremely late, but I REALLY do want to do it, so I appreciate your patience with my completely improper etiquette.
