8:42 a.m. - We're back! I woke up Saturday morning to see that I wasn't allowed access to Blogger anymore. I contacted Mr. Lehtola, and apparently he needed to make an adjustment in a setting or something. So now my daily routine is back to normal...below is what I had entered on a doc for the time being. Now it's copied here!
Sept. 19 -- 6:23 a.m. - Yesterday was okay. It wasn’t simple and easy like I had hoped, but it did get done, and then Amber and I went to Bally’s and had supper and played slots. The weather continues to feature rain…lots of rain. I’m not sure what today is going to be like. We are supposed to go to Aledo to watch youth football and cheerleaders. I’d like to work on an evaluation I need to complete for school. Other than that, I’m not sure. I am enjoying my new book, so maybe I’ll read.
Sept. 20 - 6:10 a.m. - I’m tired of all this rain. Heavy rain again occurred overnight again, and now there are flood warnings. I don’t think I’m going to be able to get to the lawn mowing again today. And once again, I’ll be battling the south part of the yard - likely again sometime in the future with the old motorized sickle.
Yesterday wasn’t the most productive of days, but it was a nice day. We went and watched youth football and youth cheerleading in Aledo. In between those times, we went to the new Judy’s Cafe in Aledo. It was okay, but I don’t think it was something that is a must go. Marketing is half the battle, right? After getting back home, I drove into Moline and got a haircut, and then when I get back it wasn’t raining, so I got a walk in. Then I settled into some reading and watching football. Illinois won, Notre Dame won, and yes Iowa won. Darren stopped by in the evening, and it was nice to talk with him. He’s staying today, too, so I’ll head over to mom and dad’s around noon time and watch the Bears and spend time with all of them. I also would like to get some exercise in again, and I would like to get some schoolwork done and get that evaluation finished.
Monday, Sept. 21 - Yesterday was yet another day of rain, so I didn’t get the yard mowed.I did get a little exercise, and I did get to mom and dad’s and watched the Bears lose. It was nice just to sit with Darren and mom. I read a lot of my book and ended up finishing it - Theo of Golden. It was good, but the first half of the book was better than the second half. I really like the idea that the author had to deliver the message, but I didn’t think the ending was a good fit. I was curious how the author was going to end the story, and the ending of the main character was unexpected. And the resolution was cool. The story ended up fitting together, and I don’t know that I have a better suggestion…just didn’t seem to “wow” me like the first part of the story.
Today will be busy. And it’s a Monday. Ugh. Today is the big meeting with the ROE. I’m not looking forward to it, but it has to be done. I’m going to be told how I’ve been unprofessional and unreasonable in my efforts to work with the ROE. And I have pushed them. We’ll see how it goes. I wish the weather would dry out, so I could mow the yard.
