More rain it seems is on the way. Yesterday’s drive was thru a monsoon again. Wipers on high with little visibility even then. Widespread as well, from my home to Eastern IA and into MN. While a friend in Southern IA called to say they were finally getting rain and were grateful I was thinking here we go again, creeks bank full, ditches with rushing water, cattle tanks filled to overflow. For all this I give thanks… I remember last year’s dryness.

EMC scheduled for 0815 this morning. Not a clue as to how long this will take. Nail beds still purple, O2 level still in 90s. Hope all moves right along.

Lots of driving yesterday, got home the first time at 0300, slept a bit, left again about 0700. Returned home around 1500, slept a bit again and left home around 1900 and arrived home again about 2330. I think I told you about hitting a deer a while back. This was the weekend to make the ins deductible so that it didn’t have to come out of the budget. I was successful. One would think I would stop this tight-fistedness but I’m not willing to do that and miss out on my fun stuff. Haha, my watch says my stress level is high, go figure.

In the Catholic tradition… 1st Friday… https://hfpmc.org/prayers-devotions/first-fridays

Let’s look at all those health things on the market. They are not for a 69 yr old overweight woman with joint and motion issues who leads a sedentary life. I certainly DO NOT want to watch a video with a 20 something anorexic body about what I should be doing, nor do I want to hear anything about yoga unless it is to hear about how it is a doorway for demons. Which of course no one is going to show you that. Nor do I want to be treated as if I am incapable of understanding the english language due to dementia issue. What is happening here is someone is making money on all this crap and I would be spending money. Nope, not going to happen.

Know you are prayed for.
