| Mexican food, working hard, & Italian cream soda | Jun 18, ‘08 5:17 PM for everyone |
Thought for today:
Last nite we had our docent meeting. Marsha had done some research on how the buildings that are the Raymer studio came to be. One end was a carriage house for the hotel that was next to it. The other end was the laundry house for the hotel. Then they were joined together. I learned so many new facts & she had tons of old photos. One docent is ill & has quit. One was not there for some reason. One swears he has meetings every nite this week. Hmmm. Another is on vacation for months. Still feel like I am nailing jello to a tree. My cousin Nancy called me last nite. She is sad I cannot come for her mom’s funeral but she understands. I would be the farm that not one other cousin or aunt or uncle tells me the missed me or anything. Glad I do not have to see them. Only sad I will not see Nancy & her kids. My stress level sure is better since I made the decision not to try to get there in time. A couple of days ago Willie filled his truck to the tune of $100. Then he drove about 10 miles to the next town to our mechanic to have some work done on it. That nite several vehicles at the shop has gas stolen out of them. Our truck was completely empty. How nice. If you are too poor to afford gas, walk or ride a bike. Turning to a life of crime is certainly not a good choice. Of course, these persons will never be caught. We are just out $100. Like we are made of money. I had a last minute invite to lunch so I ate with Sally & John at Jalisco’s. Always good. The best service anywhere I have ever eaten. Might have been a place in Hawaii that be a tiny bit better, but not by far. I worked today. Had a huge stack of thank you’s to write. Did not get done. Gave a tour to 3. Then chatted with Marsha. She is such a nice person. I told her last nite all the stressful things going on in my life. And she offered to help. So did Sally offer this noon. I am blessed to have such nice friends. I wish there was something they could do. I met with Josh at the Old Grind. I had an Italian Cream Soda. Healthy? Not a chance. I am on my way to fat hell. But with a huge smile on my face. We had a fun talk. I am blessed to have found him as a friend. He makes me laugh & to always feel good inside. Drove home. Noticed blackness to the northwest. A bad omen. Willie reported to me that the weather at noon had a bull’s eye over Salina as to where the bad stuff was going to be. Oh, joy. There was a report of a tornado way way to the nw. I hope it all blows up before reaching here. But….. Even without a tornado, there is torrential rains forecast. Batten down the hatches. Again. Gått för dagen. Kanske. Be well, do good work, and keep in touch!
