The Girl Scout cookie booth went okay. The girls didn't sell a lot of cookies because there simply weren't a lot of people coming through. Several cases of cookies went back unopened. Thin mints and Tagalongs were the big sellers. Trefoils must have sold really well during the first half of the booth, before we got there, because they were gone by the time Cordelia and the other Cadette took over the booth at 2:30.

Scott went out to run some errands, leaving me and Cordelia at Busch's. There were two other parents present, so I really didn't have to do much but stand there or sit on the bench a few feet away.

The booth was right by the exit which was configured in such a way that there was a blast of frigid air every time someone left the store. All of us adults kept our coats on, but the girls took theirs off.

We stayed nearly half an hour past the official end of the booth time, and the girls sold another four or five boxes of cookies. They did get one woman who donated $10. She said she couldn't eat cookies but that she wanted to contribute.

We had fish for dinner. Last week, we had cod, and Cordelia liked that. This time, when we went grocery shopping, tilapia was on sale, so we bought that. Cordelia does not much like tilapia-- She says it has no flavor. Unfortunately, we've still got another two, maybe three meals worth of tilapia. We also have two servings of cod left. I may prepare some of that for Cordelia on nights when Scott and I are having chicken-- It's easy enough, twenty to twenty five minutes in the oven from frozen.

This morning, I increased my morning dose of Wellbutrin to 150 mg. I'll be keeping the lunchtime dose at 100 mg for a while yet, just so I can see how the change affects me. The idea is, eventually, to go up to 150 mg twice a day.

Cordelia has the next week off from school. We'll have her friends over Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Thursday and Friday, we'll be able to sleep in. I don't know if the friends' mother will be sending lunch or not. She hasn't said. She usually does, but I bought some stuff to feed the kids anyway, just in case. I don't have enough for three lunches, but I do have enough for two lunches.
