On the blessings of many orders and surviving JoAnn's Fabrics

We got orders for 12 hats yesterday!  Kate is thrilled!  I'm so excited that we already have over $200 to donate to the orphanage.  I keep thinking of what they might be able to do with the money.

But this blessing of orders required me to take another trip to JoAnn's, which is definitely not my favorite place.  Today their cloth scanning machine was evidently down, and the sku numbers for each of my six types of fleece had to be written by hand by one employee and then punched in at the checkout by another employee who couldn't read the first's handwriting.  She kept having to walk all the way across the store and back to determine what certain numbers were, all while my two-year-olds were standing next to the candy display in the only available check out lane having tantrums that they couldn't have "chocolate, chocolate, chocolate!"

But, we're home now, and once Kate gets home from school the sewing will commence!
