Cleaned the laundry room this morning and found way too much dirt.  I can’t remember when I last cleaned it – obviously I had waited too long.

Went to the board meeting at Pioneer Bluffs this afternoon.  Lots of things happening there right now – the board has really gotten engaged and are doing lots of work behind the scenes.  I did a much better job staying quiet today.  It was fun hearing all the committee reports and what all is happening.

Over 100 degrees out again today.  I was surprised how green the grass was at Pioneer Bluffs.  My yard has been burned up for weeks.  Their grass is still green and growing.  They have had lots more rain than I have gotten.  I do have a 50/50 chance for some rain tomorrow and the high is only going to be 90.  I will welcome every drop that comes my way.

My long-term boarder’s girl friend came this afternoon while I was gone.  I had told him to tell her to come on in and make herself at home.  They are resting so I haven’t got to meet her yet.  Not sure how long she is staying.

My little guest that is playing in the disc golf tournament had a good day yesterday.  I hope he places in the money today.  He is such a cute kid.  Lots of pressure to play in a big tournament like he is in.  He told me he had fun yesterday which is the important thing.

I took a nap yesterday so had trouble falling asleep last night.  Finally took a sleeping pill around 1:30 and got a couple of hours of sleep after that.  I could fall asleep right now if I would let myself.  Will try to stay up until at least 9:00 tonight so I can break this cycle.  Sure wish sleep wasn’t so hard for me.

Feeling a bit unsettled and ungrounded today.  I know what is causing it and I just need to keep reminding myself all is well and allow things to be what they are.  Need to stay present and not look ahead of myself.  Sometimes that is easier said than done for me.

Have a guest coming in tomorrow for one night and then another one coming in Sunday night for one night.  The dad and son check out Sunday morning.  Guess I will be doing lots of laundry and cleaning this weekend.  Kathy has a friend coming in Tuesday for one night.  After that I don’t have any guests for over a week except for my long-term boarder.  It will be nice to have some down time from guests.

Grateful for all the fun stuff that is in the works at Pioneer Bluffs, grateful for having a clean laundry room, and grateful all is well on the prairie today.
