Lord, I don't know HOW I did it, but the attorneys got fed, liquored up, and left happy. The restaurant barely had phone service, but we certainly had enough kick-ass hors d'oeuvres. And the smoke smell dissipated before everyone got there. Thank Jeebus.
On the other hand, I DID stress-eat (I swear I ate an entire sheet-pan of onion tartletts - but DAMN were they good). But I will be back on track tomorrow. In fact, I plan on doing an entire recap of my 1st week of Weight Watchers this Friday. And if all goes smoothly, I'll have good news to report.
But the icing on my stressful cake came at about 9:30 pm, when my mother left me a message saying that she, my grandmother, and my grandfather (who are visiting her from Texas) are taking the train to NYC TOMORROW!!!! They want to see a show and then go back to Mom's house in Pennsylvania afterwards. And also visit with me in the 23 spare minutes they might have between the show and their return train. I was more than a little hysterical when I finally got to speak to Mama Bunny. That woman is certainly full of surprises.
