Got my mowing done today except for one last part. It got too windy and too much grass was blowing in my eyes so I had to quit. I will get out in the morning and finish it up. The ground is really dry and the grass has burned up in a lot of spots on the yard.
This afternoon Kathy, Michelle and Tagen and I drove to Lawrence to go to my nephew’s wedding. They had a nice crowd and the wedding was beautiful. Good to see my brother Keith and his wife and family.
There was about an hour between the wedding and the reception. All three of my kids came to the wedding so we decided to go to a tavern and get a drink before the reception. Once we got to the tavern we decided to go ahead and order dinner and eat there. It was a special treat for this momma to get a surprise family day. I’m so grateful all three kids went to the wedding and we got to have a family meal together.
We drove home after we ate and didn’t go to the reception. The weather was getting a bit dicey and I wanted to get home. We drove through some heavy rain for just a bit between Topeka and Emporia. We got sprinkled on as we were walking to our car after dinner.
As we were getting close to my house we saw a beautiful double rainbow to the south and then Kathy spotted a sun dog to the west. Mother Nature put on a beautiful show for us this evening.
Not sure if we got any rain here at the house before we got home. Michelle’s car was sitting out and it was still dusty although it looked like it may have gotten sprinkled on. Dang. Close to the rain again but no cigar.
Tomorrow night I have another Tonglen practice. Never know if anyone is going to show up or not. We shall see. Other than that I don’t have anything on my calendar for the rest of the week. I’m sure it will be busier than it looks like it will. I’m still adjusting to cooking three meals a day for Tagen and fixing an evening meal for the three of us. Ellexia will be here for part of the week and she always keeps me busy.
I’m tired tonight so hoping I can get to bed early and get some good sleep. I’ve been a bit sleepy all day. It felt like a day where I had to slow my body down a bit so my brain could catch up with it.
Grateful to see all three of my kids today, grateful to be able to witness the marriage of Dean and Brittani, and grateful for a safe trip to and from Lawrence.
