Wednesday, June 10

6:14 a.m. - The weather forecast isn't looking great.  Today and tomorrow the forecasters are calling for storms and heavy rain.  I don't need either of those things.  

Yesterday was quiet and okay.  I went to Aledo and got some pies after doing a little work at IC Elementary.  Then I came home and "worked from home" which included mowing my yard and doing some weeding in the hot weather.  I did try to call 180 where Chase is currently at, and I left a message, but I haven't yet received a response.  I read my book a little, and watched the NHL game, and then it was off to bed.  After the trip to Aledo, I also stopped by mom and dad's and paid them a visit, took them a pie, and viewed the new shower they have.  She's really happy with it, and I'm really happy they have something that is safer and more usable.  

So what about today?  I have PT in the morning, but I also need to do a little work on the camper.  I think there is water problems somewhere again in the back corner.  I have had trouble with it before, and I don't know if the problem is on the roof or on the side.  I still continue to be amazed that campers have a shorter life expectancy than I ever imagined.  I guess it makes sense, though.  How is it feasible to roll around a "moving house" and not expect it to start to have difficulties.  I just wish I would have known all this before purchasing it.  It's going to be really hard for me to get anything out of that camper when we go to sell it. 

Part of my plan for the morning is to also take clothes to Goodwill.  I have four garbage sacks of clothes that I have removed from my closet that I don't wear or rarely wear.  This includes one sack of officiating clothes.  This was a "to-do" item that Amber had proposed for this summer.

I miss Amber, and I hope her week in Florida is going okay.  On the other hand, I really appreciate the quietness that I've had this week.  By that, I don't mean that Amber disturbs the quiet...it's great being with her when it's just the two of us.  The thing is that our house isn't normally "quiet".  And that's not a bad thing at all.  It's wonderful to have our kids and our grandchildren and friends and family members.  But it's also nice to have "quiet".
