A short but sweet posting. This week has been full of thunder, lightening, and rain. If it rained in town it didn't rain out here and if it rained out here, it stayed dry in town. On Wednesday it rained so hard at our house that the satellite went out. I didn't have to water though so that was good. Yesterday the rain in town was somewhat of a flash flood. Nathan and I walked through the shopping malls parking lots with water running over our feet. It was running so fast that I got vertigo when I looked down. The coming week is promised to be more of the same.
We started today out by going into town early. We did the shopping for our birthday dinner tonight. We then picked up worms for Carl, with funny looks and all. An elderly man kept insisting that we just wait until night time to get our worms.
We then went out to the nursery to pick up some composting and grass seeds. We plan on tilling the backyard tomorrow since the rain has loosened the dirt. Driving home with the compost was quite an experience. It is probably the foulest smelling stuff ever. The nursery lets their sprinklers wash over their bags of compost and such and getting them wet not such a good idea.
We had about twenty people out for Nathan's and my birthday. I made tacos. Tim bought me a house plant and did the house work. I also got some bowls, glasses, and dishes.I also received a necklace and earrings from Holly and her parents that are made from glass that came off of the space shuttle. The maker works for NASA. Nathan got $ and shirts.
Well, that's about it for now. There's only 10 days left in school, three of which are minimum days, and then I will be starting my summer school classes June 15th. I'm only got into one class but on the waiting list for the other so hopefully I get in.
Tootles to all.
