It has rained steady since last evening with more to go today. No one is complaining around here because the worst of the rain has stayed south of us. We have gotten several inches but nothing more. Seems Hurricane Gordon and run into a cold front which is causing the rain to be heavier...it is also causing the air to be a whole lot colder!
Scott called yesterday and has finally gotten back all the scans and mri from his ankle and will having surgery September 19. He is without family down there and 3 hours from me so I will be driving down for the surgery and then staying a while. Hopefully I can get him back up here since it will be much easier for all of us. He injured his ankle last spring and has finally found a doctor who treated it like an injury instead of a sprain. It never healed and now he will be off work for 12 weeks. Always something and a mother's work is never done...even if her kid is 45!
Jon was up sick last night and called off today. He is a sleeper when he is sick so I will not be seeing much of him. Sierra has left for work and then will haul her bf around after so she is gone for the entire day and most of the evening. Going to be a quiet, rainy day but I have no where to go. Talked with my sister yesterday and we are shopping Thursday. I really need bath towels. What are they making towels of these days? No matter what the age is they still fill a dryer tray with lint. Maybe that is why they are getting so thin? They are melting away. I have not checked out the price of tires they claim I need so should do that this week since I will be hitting the highway...a lot...the next couple of weeks. What I want to do do is start Christmas shopping and getting through the thousands of birthdays that are coming up and not buying stupid tires. I love Christmas but want the shopping chore done early so I can get out and about and enjoy all the festivities and stores without pressure of having to shop.
I hope all of you that want the rain are getting it and the weather cools for you. I told Andrew yesterday that next week we were going to trim back shrubs and empty pots next week. He is the one who will work willingly especially if he can handle tools. Not many yard ornaments were brought out this summer but those that did need to be put away. Winter went so long and then ended so abruptly that we never enjoyed doing those springy things like setting yard ornaments. Some shrubs need replacing or just gotten rid of. Why do we buy things then decide after they are set that they are not doing what we want? We have never landscaped the front porch! But then again we have never really finished it. A big lottery win would get me out of here and into a freshly landscaped house with a maid and cook and housekeeper. And a private beach. If your gonna dream dream big and remember to buy a lottery ticket! DRATS!
Enough dreaming and back to reality. Still raining here...hope you all have a sunny Saturday!!
