I slept in this morning and that felt good.  It looks like another damp day out.  We are not getting a lot of rain from these storms so far.  But I remember how dry it has been and I would say this is better than that.  It's nice to look out my window and see the top of the walnut tree.  It grows a little each year. 

 

Yesterday I worked at the shop until supper time and I did get quite a bit done.  I'll see what I can get done this morning.  Last night I finished up the laundry and did the newsletter.  We combined June and July and that will be nice for me.  I won't have to do it next month. 

 

I may have to work at the shop this afternoon, if I don't the sales tax done. 

DS left this week for two weeks of Guards.  He'll be in  WY.  I don't know if we'll hear from him or not.  I'm sure he'll contact his DW if he has cell phone service. DDIL just has a few more days of working at the nursing home and then she is done working there.

 

I tried a new recipe for supper.  It was steak strips that were stir fried.  DH enjoyed it also.

 

I see they got some major rain in the SE part of the state.   I wonder how my mom got thru that.  I wonder how much water she got in her basement.  I will call her today sometime.  It's chilly out this morning and I think I'll put a jacket on.  Yesterday I had to wear a jacket walking down to the shop during the evening to take pictures.  I see there is a missed call on my cell phone from my brother.  I will call him sometime today and see what that was about.

 

As I was washing laundry, I just piled up all the clothes that I need for next week rather than put them away.  I should just go down and get my suitcase out and put the clothes in there.  It will save me doing it Sunday night.  Monday at noon I head for a Health Care meeting.  It finishes up on Wed afternoon.  I'll drive over to see my mom after stopping  off at to see my dad and then spend the night with my mom..  Thursday I'll go over to the nursing home down there to consult. and then come home Thurs night.  There is a wedding back down in that way on Saturday.  It is DDIL's brother's wedding  but since DS can not be in it (Guards)  I don't think we'll go.  It's just too much travelling for me. Whew! I just get tired thinking about this travelling this week.  I guess I'll take it just one day at a time!  LOL  I figure I'll get about 1000 miles put on the old Buick by the time Sunday comes! 

 

Well I had better get moving.

I'm glad to read all your news this afternoon, but I swear, after I read your post, I was worn out!

I can tell you that we had a high old time in the camper the other night....I never did hear the real speed of the winds but I know they were over 50MPH and we got over an inch that time but it has been raining everyday since.. And it isn't done yet..... It kept me up all night long....


Right now it is 66 outside, going to have to close windows soon.


The James is still flooding near Scotland......I think it has for over a year now. With all this rain.....WOW......


The other campgrounds around had some damage mostly from trees.....some that didn't have their awnings up don't have to worry about them now.....lol


Retired and lovin'it.
