In Like a Lamb...Out Like a Lion and then Like a Lamb all in the Same Day

Today has been another one of those days where the weather changed by the minute. One minute it would bee nice and calm and the sun shining; then the wind would really pick up and blow for five minutes or so and then stop. Or the sun would be out and it was nice and clear and then the sky would grow dark and sometimes it would rain and sometimes it would not. One just did not know how to dress or what to expect.

I saw that it was nice outside so I decided that I would pull some weeds since the ground was still saturated and the weeds would pull easily. For the first hour or so it was sunny and alternating between calm and windy. Then I went out front to trim the hedge on the east side of the yard; it started out nice but after about fifteen minutes it started to rain. I gathered up my equipment and put it all away and went inside and cleaned up.

Kathleen said that Andrea and Brandon were coming over, just as she got the words out of her mouth Andrea drove up. She and Brandon stayed for a couple hours; Andrea had said that she was really warm because she wore fleece today and it was too warm, but the way the weather changed it might be too warm one minute and not warm enough the next.

Zander was having a program at school tonight, but between working in the yard and doing a lot of hand washing of pots and pans I was kind of tired. Kathleen's hip was bothering her and my bottom was acting up again so we decided that it probably was a good idea for us not to go.

Before Andrea left I loaded up the dishwasher and started it up, and then I went and sat down in my chair. I fell asleep for a while and woke up as Andrea was starting to take Brandon out to her car.

Kathleen reheated the left over corn beef from last night and we still have enough left over for another meal or two.
