Working hard
May. 4th, 2007 01:19 pmI got up at 7:30 this morning, all to hard work that awaited me. Took me a while to wake up, eat breakfast and such, but then I went up to the roof and started my cleaning. After two hours I was still very much behind, and I wanted some more coffee, so I went down to the apartment and made myself a second coffee, cold this time, and after my dad said he'd help me with the roof when he gets back I decided to stay down and do some of the cooking. Managed to get the punch done and started with the potatoes and sweet-potatoes, which took a long time. I still need to cut the apples, make the dressing for the salad, finish with the potatoes and finish with the roof, not to mention all the last minute stuff I have to do, but I'm just tired and hungry right now, so I'm taking a (well deserved, I think) break. I'll go have lunch in a while, and then go back to work.
As for the party tonight - Hagar said she won't come. It wasn't unexpected, but it still annoy me. *shakes head and leaves it alone*
Finished "Lost in a Good Book". I really did enjoy it, tremendously, but it's the second in a series, so I'll be going back to the first and get on from there. It's been a long time since I enjoyed a book like that, because the last few books I read were either sad/touching or just not so great ("Prep", for example).
Going to eat.

17:18: Well, the potatoes are done and in the oven, the dressing is also finished, the apples are cut and inside lemon juice (so they won't turn black), and the roof is done - got dad and Eyal to do it for me. Some of the drinks are in the fridge, except the beers, because they'll turn gross if I put them this early. My mom went to lay down for a while, and she only has to put the chicken with the dressing (done by my sister) in the oven (I don't touch it) and the Tehinni (god, I hate that word in English). I am going to take a bath now, before Asaf and Sofi calls for a ride.

Called Sophi - it'll take them time to get here, so I have time.
Still has to do - defrost the pittas and cut some of them to make them crispy with olive oil and hyssop, put the beers in the fridge, get utensils and plates up to the roof (and table-cloths), and then get the food up there. I better go wash up and dress nicer than now, also...
