Volunteer Work

This week is 'Volunteer Week' at the Folmar household!

First, Marie had the PTA Fall Festival today (Friday) where she was responsible for the food.  everything went well and the food costs were dropped dramatically.  There was still food left over, but only about 1.5 roasters full rather than the 5 from last year.  Poor Marie was running herself ragged trying to work her school job, send out the MacaroniKid newsletter, and prepare for the Fall Festival.  This on top of Halloween.  She survived and the festival was a success.

Tomorrow (Saturday) I'm volunteering at the DaVinci Institute.  They are having their Inventor's Showcase and I'll be there from 7:00 am till noon.  It will be a good time and I'll enjoy it.  Mostly I'm helping to sett up the exhibitors and doing whatever job needs doing.  Keep me busy and out of trouble.

In other news, it snowed again Wednesday!  I didn't get to shoveling it off the driveway till today, but it wasn't too bad.  Most of the snow on the roads, sidewalks and driveways is melted.  The lawns, having been cooled off by last Wednesday's snow, still has snow on it.  So, the ground is hardening.  No new snow is predicted for the week.

That is all to report for this week.  I'm off to bed early tonight as I have to be up early tomorrow to make it to the showcase on time.
