I got a leisurely start this morning, and only planned to go to pick up some good snacks for a short backpack trip I have planned. Before I left I looked in the mirror. I was wearing a pair of bright coral colored capris and a pretty green v-necked top. When I saw my reflection I had to laugh - I looked like a watermelon!
I have most of the puzzle finished but have left about 50 pieces for Joshua to finish up. This is a huge puzzle with a complicated pattern, and for a kid who is nearly 9 yrs old he has a great way of looking at it and seeing the matches. I may have to hold out two pieces so Joshua and Justin can put in the "last piece" together. I don't remember as a kid fighting over who gets to do what, but as the only girl with younger brothers I'm sure I always let them do the fun stuff.
It was cooler than I thought this morning, with a beautiful sky full of dark rain clouds, although it never did rain. The clouds were unusual looking and I thought of taking a photo but didn't relish the idea of standing in the grocery parking lot snapping a camera at the sky.
The plumbing problems of yesterday were huge and what is required to fix them will be huge as well. I am leaving the garage door open for a few hours today to try to dry things out, but what is in the ceiling and insulation will need to be replaced.
I doubt if I will post this weekend - tomorrow will be soccer games, and there are always things planned for the weekends. Have a good one.

I'm just about ready to go when Mike packs up my car in an organized way. I'll try to leave 1st thing in the morning, but I want to brew some coffee to take along in a thermos, and by then everyone will be getting up. I still hope...

I was sitting at the dining room working on the latest puzzle. The washing machine and dryer were going and I could hear them as background noise. I must have flushed the toilet and it never stopped running, but I didn't hear it...

I could hear the rain hitting the roof throughout the night, but by this morning it had stopped. When I went out for some errands at about 10 am, the sun was shining! Beautiful sunlight! I have never minded rain although I can't...

All I did today other than the puzzle was to get my hair cut. I looked like a sheep dog but it's a bit tidier now. I really dislike the way one strand of hair will curl but all the strands around it don't. The puzzle pieces...

Jeannie called me this morning and told me that Arianna said to her, "I'm so excited about camping. I already know which dress I'm going to wear, but don't worry, it isn't white so it won't get dirty!" I said I wondered...
