A Wild Wednesday

This is day two of our wild weather, yesterday it was nice one minute and then raining the next. Anyway, I slept in until 0830 this morning and was still tired, but I knew that I would not be getting back to sleep.


This morning after finishing reading the paper, I went outside and pulled some ivy up and was going to move some more gravel, but it started to get rather dark out, so I went back into the house and just after I did, it started to rain. It did not last too long, just long enough that it got everything wet again.

About noon I decided to go outside and try to get the front lawn mowed, and just as I was about to go out the door it started to rain again, so much for mowing.

Kathleen and I had planned to go out for lunch today, so about 1315 we took off, it was the first time we had been anyplace to eat outside of a quick burger since I started the radiation treatments. We both had halibut fish and chips, it was really good, but we both left two chunks of fish, so that means, I will have it someday for lunch.

Just after we left the restaurant it started to rain really hard and it was even a little slushy. So I knew that even if we got home I would not be able to mow, as everything was just too soaked.

Afterwards we stopped at Costco to pick up some items for the coupon book that was just about expired. I was doing pretty well, but by the time we were done I was ready for a nap. Once home, I emptied the SUV and that is about all I could handle. If it had been earlier, I probably would have tried to take a nap, but I knew that if I did go to sleep, I would be up too late tonight.

I did however sit down in my chair and doze for a while and felt a little better when I got up. Kathleen asked me what I wanted heated up so I suggested the pasta from last night. It was kind of like a casserole, and tasted better the next day, there was not a lot there, so I also had a bowl of cottage cheese to top it off, now I am ready to take another nap.

I did not get anything done today, but I am really tired tonight, I think that I must have been running on fumes lately. Well, I think I will just sign of and say good night.
