By the time we were ready for our walk this morning, the rain had ended. Overall, yesterday my gauge recorded 1.13" of much needed rain. It dribbled just a little bit today, and not a lot is in the gauge, but we got enough to turn the sprinklers off. We had a good, but abbreviated walk this morning, and after a little while, I went in to the office. Deposited a few checks, brought a few things to the Curious House, stopped to check my (losing) Lotto tickets, bought more, bought a giant burrito, ate the burrito, read the paper, took a nap, fed the girls, checked the mail, complained about my 'toll tag,' made a couple calls, answered a few emails, deleted a LOT of emails, watched the news, ignored the news, and now I am composing this journal entry. There are four estate sales tomorrow, and we will make the best of those. The girls are now off their fanch-schmantzy food, and back on the store bought food. They are not complaining, and I am really happy with the convenience. I have learned that, the more expensive the food is, the more difficult it is to serve it to the girls. Lesson learned.
