Its Raining here again. Good. I hope it rains for the whole week. We are so short of water here and I just hate going through the whole drought thing every year. Even in the winter, we go through it. I am just happy to be gettin some of the free wet stuff this early in the year. Every little bit helps. I know you floks on the east coast are getting very high temps, well enjoy while you can, cus in no time at all, you will be tramping through the snow.
Speaking of water. The water out of the tap here is awful we think, so we buy our drinking water in jugs from the store. We have two 3 gallon and one 2 galloin jugs. Yesterday I went to Winco to get some bulk sesonings and also fill our water jugs. I put them in the back of my cruiser where I usually put them and headed on home. I usually go the store around the corner from my house, but I needed stuff from Winco, so I had to travel a little further this time. So, I was almost home, around the corner actually. The car in front of me is traveling slow, in the turn lane but no turn signel yet. I look behind me to make sure I can get all the way over to the right to turn and when i look back, three seconds later, she has her turn signal on and her break lights. She turns into a driveway, I had to slam my breaks and heard the water tip over and start to roll around in the back section of my cruiser. Hurry, get around the corner, get to my street where I can safely stop my car, jump out, open the back. Oh crap, half of one of the 3 gallon jugs has just emptied itself in the back of my car.
It wasnt very far to my house from there, but the city was trimming trees. There were city workers everywhere, and I couldnt just do my regular crazy lady driving into my driveway. Then, right in front of my house this guy with a chain saw is cutting limbs into smaller pieces. STOP CUTTING GUY! I dont want my car dinged by wood chips. I finally got into my driveway, and unloaded my stuff. It took two towels to soak up the water and one of the seats was saturated. I tipped up both of them to drain to the floor and the water just poured out of the bigger one. I called John to let him know what happened and to check on the drying process when he got home from work. Im sure it will be fine. Stuff like this gets me though.
I got called off last night, so I went back to sleep and slept pretty good. I have intentions of cleaning house, making cookies and maybe even working on those pillow covers for my sister. I think she keeps giving me projects cus she thinks I have nothing else to do. I am going to have to let her know I am just fine and usually pretty busy, or at least occupeid.
Ok, this is getting a little long for me so I will let you go. hope you all have a great weekend.
