The Mariah and Kathleen Cafe

April 29, 2014 Posted by HATS Visitors 3 Comments

Ladies and Gentleman,

You all better hold on to your hats (not HATS) because it is story time!!!! Featuring the loud and crazy Kathleen, the Sassy but Styling Mariah and the Stubborn but SuperWoman Director.  Trust me this is a good one.

Pictures will be dark due to the secret spy cam that we had 🙂

For those of you who have the privilege of knowing Karen you know that she does not sit still for a minute, she is constantly running everywhere.  Yesterday was especially busy, every time she turned around there was another something for her to do or someone that needed attending to.  Last night Mariah and I realized the Madame Director needed her beauty sleep!!!!!  “You going to go to bed?” was responded to by “…mmmmmm NOPE!”  Karen wanted Mariah and I to get sleep though so we used this to our advantage 🙂  Two words:  SLEEP STRIKE!!!!!

Thats right, we told Karen we were refusing sleep until she was asleep!!!
We would not leave her side until her head was on the pillow with her pj’s and evening reading material in hand. (We thought this was going to be easy, jokes on us i guess hahahaha)

The evening started out with Mariah and I starting our business, “The Mariah and Kathleen Cafe”.  On the menu… EGGS!!!!  After our restaurant was opened we took the order from our first brave customer, the Director herself!!!  Eggs sunnyside up is what she wanted and was served to her in record time with two kinds of cheese and special yummy salt.  With this a glass of water on hand to wash it all down.  Now i know you are all getting hungry hearing about this wonderful cafe and all it has to offer but after making two last eggs for the us Chefs we decided it would be better to close the restaurant.

The director had yummies all in her tummies, but still had pictures to sort and a blog to get out.  So Mariah and I sat and sat and sat and sat and finally convinced her to pack things up. (Now here comes the crazy because by this time we are all tired so things are just getting ridiculous).

With recent event Madame Director decided it would be best if she slept in the living room, renting her room out to a Canadian.  So the group got her a pillow, mattress and sheets.  PERFECT…. right?…. WRONG!!!!!!!  oh so VERYYY wrong.  The director has a very special directors pillow, designed for directors head.  Turns out the Canadian (who shall remain nameless) had her head on this very special pillow.  The director doesnt want to take it and tells Mariah and I that we need to get it or she wont be able to sleep.  However she does say “I can sleep anywhere as long as I have my pillow” LIES!!!!!!!

Mariah and I fix the pillow but then she realizes that she forgot her tooth brush in the room rented out the the Canadian!!  But no worries we get that as well.  But wait!!  “I cannot sleep without my fan” (Mariah at this time is like “I called it”) So while the director is brushing her pearly whites we get the fan into position.  Mariah is laying on the bed telling me where the fan needs to be moved so that the wind is at its best.  It is at this time that Mariah and I pull out the measuring tapes and make sure that her bed is parallel to the walls and the distance between her and the walls are an even number of centimeters, not odd and that she has a regulation walk way between her bed and the couch.  She caught us measuring and could not stop laughing!

So Director is in bed, but we realized this had all just been a hilarious series of events soooooooooo we became spys and came in through the kitchen to take a picture of Karen for the blog.  My head lamp ended up reflecting in the window though and Karen caught us red handed!!!

Mariah and Kathleen being super spies

Mariah and I thought that it might be a good idea to keep an eye on her so we moved in.  However we didnt want bugs on us…. Soooooo we moved our tents as well.  Germaine and Ti Luc did not know what to do with themselves when they got up in the morning.  I am sure it was much more hilarious for us, but a fun sleep over for sure.

    You crazies…sounds like a lot of fun! I sure hope the Canadian who rented her room got a good sleep and the others were well rested today because I am quite sure none of you three got much sleep!
    Always fun and pranks going on there.
    Enjoy your last 3 days!
