Morning. We got 1.78 inches of rain yesterday, and today is supposed to be 76. I'd prefer it get back down into the 50's and 60's. ;P

Have a good day everyone. Be healthy, and be happy, if possible!

I raked all the leaves out of half of the backyard, (dog side), and into the front yard and gutter (where the city picks them up), and while I was gone the leaf fairy came and cleaned out my gutters and raked the front yard! But, it rained all night and now it looks like it was never done. =( I guess it'll give me something to do Sunday.

Nother ultrasound today. The baby is too big according to the DR. I'm just excited about another chance to look at my kid and double check she's really a girl. Fun stuff.

You all have a wonderful day.

Ultrasound went great. Libby is just fine, although about a week ahead in size. I'm fine everyone is fine. The Dr is over anxious.

Ended up raking again. It's a gorgeous day today...too nice to spend inside!

Lol Sass, what an assessment! I;m glad things are well. I'm tempted to send Laurel out to start raking what leaves we have; most either blow up the road to someone else's yard (like garbage on trash day) or go down the hill on their own.

I'm pretty frustrated this morning. The power button on our computer died, so I'm using Laurel's computer. HPM had "corrected" my email logins a while ago, and now I have no EFFING idea what they would be. He's in a marathon meeting this morning, too. Ugh. I hope power button components are something that's easy to swap out and can be obtained at something like best buy or radio shack.

Great WEEKEND! Spent Saturday with my Son just working around the farm. Sunday, church, went for a short day hike with a friend.
Got home and we made dinner and spent maybe four hours last night just chatting about life. Woke up this AM, took a shower got out and for the FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE....there was a cup of hot coffee sitting there waiting for me.

Nice cool evening and night...just great.

Couple of weeks ago, for the first time in my life, someone brought me a cup of coffee to bed. The day before or so I had been mentioning that, first thing in the morning, I usually get out of bed, before the alarm goes off, make myself a cup of coffe or tea, return to bed and drink it there. So, next morning he woke me up, with a cup of coffee. I like my coffee with milk and sugar. This coffee was with milk and sugar, just the way I like it and I didn't even had to tell him. I guess he just had been watching me the other mornings. Man, we had such a nice time together. I just felt really well and save around him.
Well, I guess he didn't feel well around me. I haven't heard back from him.

My parents just left, and now I'm 4 days behind on getting stuff organized and taken care of for this weekend's big fooferah koi show. Setup is Thursday, it opens to the public Friday, and runs through Sunday. I haven't been able to get too many volunteers to help supply food (usually homemade sandwiches and snacks) beverages or time (someone has to sit there) for the hospitality table. I'm going to have a very long weekend, I think.

If you are going to be organizing volunteers on a regular basis, you need to give birth to more children.

The one about his wife training him well was for you.

The one about giving birth was for treebait. Your own kids make useful, if not happy, volunteers.

I don't want this week to progress any further than today. The rest of it and the weekend have
great potential for being miserable. I'm taking my art stuff with me to the koi show; You can only wander around looking at fish for so long. I may as well draw or paint the dang things while I'm there.

This is how awake I am: I made myself a vanilla iced coffee; while making it I started coughing and feeling pretty punky. I thought okay, don't want to get sick, better take some Emergen-C. Instead of dumping it in the cup I had ready, I poured it in my coffee. Mocha orange creamsicle isn't bad at all. ;)
