I went to a birthday brunch for a friend this morning. We had breakfast at the Saddlerock Cafe in Council Grove. It is fun to eat with a group of friends. While I was in Council Grove I stopped at a store and noticed they were selling lilac bushes so I got two of them. I had been looking for some and this is the first time I found them.

Afterwards I drove to Manhattan. I bought some gym tennis shoes, an outfit for Santa Fe, and some Capri pants. Then I went to visit with two dear friends for the afternoon. I didn’t get home until almost 8:00.

It was good for me to get out of the house and visit with friends today. I forget to get out and do that sometimes. It is good for my soul to spend time with others. I get in my comfort box at home and forget to go out.

The house feels warm tonight. It is to cool down tomorrow and stay cooler for the next several days. No breeze tonight to bring in cooler air. It is cooler outside than inside tonight. I walked down to gather the last three eggs of the day and give the chickens feed and water and to take the trash down to the curb and noticed how cool it is.

I got the information back from my attorney today so I will need to review it tomorrow and get it back to him if there are any corrections or changes. He needs me to come to his office to sign papers after we get everything correct so I will get a visit scheduled. I’m not sure if he can wait until the end of the month when I have to go to KC for a class. If not I’ll have to make a special trip up to see him. I’m glad to be getting this project completed.

I haven’t made it to the gym yet so it will be on my must do list for tomorrow. Not sure if I will ride the bike tonight or not. I am hot and tired right now. Maybe if I can get cooled down I will ride it and read for an hour.

The dogs are MIA this evening. They must be out doing their final check of the day. I sure don’t like it when they are gone. Wish I could afford to fence in most of my property so they stay home.

I got names of two more people to talk to about doing a long-term, international volunteer mission project today. Trusting one of them can help me get connected to the right project for me. I’m still looking at the Peace Corps – just not sure I want to commit for two years.

Beautiful moon tonight. Beautiful sunset. All is well on the prairie tonight.
