With Kathy’s help we got almost 2,000 post cards labeled and stamped today. They were here at 10:00 and I had them at the post office at 2:30. Glad that little project is done.
I finished writing the grant I had worked on yesterday morning last night. I took it into Emporia and gave it to the appropriate person after I dropped the post cards off at the Cottonwood Falls post office. That makes two projects completed today. It has been a productive day.
I didn’t sleep very well again last night. Just could not fall asleep. May have gotten three hours of sleep before I finally gave up. I don’t enjoy nights like that. I thought I was really tired but could not relax enough to sleep last night.
I got my laundry done today. It is all folded and put away although I still need to make up my bed. I took little five-minute breaks every hour while I was working on the post cards to let my shoulders relax a bit. They are a touch tight this afternoon. Repetitive motion is not good for a body.
My friend hasn’t come to pick up the two chicks yet. May need to come up with Plan C. As they are downstairs they don’t bother me so I can keep them if needed. These two seem pretty quiet so they must be content where they are.
I’m going to KC tomorrow to do a Costco run and have lunch with a dear friend. I always enjoy getting away for a day but am always happy to get back home too.
The clouds are starting to roll in. The wind has been in a big hurry all day today. Trusting it will blow us in some much needed rain. Chase County is back into drought conditions and high fire danger alerts. Sure could use a couple of inches of nice, gentle rain. 67 degrees out today! Spring has sprung early on the prairie.
I have been off caffeine for three weeks now. When I was in town today I almost stopped to get an iced tea and then remembered I no longer drink it. Glad I remembered before I ordered one. Old habits die hard sometimes. I was hoping if I quit drinking it I would sleep better but that hasn’t proven to be true yet.
Grateful my two projects are completed, grateful for the coming rain (I am ever the optimist), and grateful for Spring!
