Probably raining, cool, and wet. Yesterday’s weather was rain as predicted but much later in the day than thought. Then a little clearing, before the heavy rain rolled in later. We got a bunch, which the grass needed. Today is supposed to be more rain, but we’ll see. Might be some other part of Houston’s day in the barrel.
Did auction pickups and drove around. Mostly stuff for the BOL. Got some good stuff at the bins.
Spent over an hour talking to an old friend on the phone. It’s been too long since we spoke. I don’t want it to be so long again. I also don’t know if I’ll get a chance to talk with my aunt again. I was going to call her last week, and got distracted. Now she’s in the hospital, with rehab and then skilled care in her future. She might not make it home. We never know what tomorrow will bring so do what you need to when you need to. Might not be a ‘later’.
Today should be me at the BOL meeting with the cable internet guy, but — they are liars that lie. I’m glad I decided not to try going up last night. The company claims they sent email explaining that they don’t actually service my address, despite insisting that they did. No such email was received. The appointment was not canceled. If I had trusted them, I’d be up there cooling my heels while they never showed.
Instead, I’ll do more stuff here. There’s no shortage of things that need doin’. Maybe we’ll decorate eggs tonight. Kids are off school and wife is off work, so I’m the only one working today. After last year’s scramble to find egg decorating stuff, I stocked up. No shortage of stuff this year, either for traditional color, or for more modern systems. Gnomes are likely. I really like decorating eggs.
I like to keep the old traditions alive.
Stack some culture, some traditions. That’s what gets remembered.
