I emptied the rain gauge this afternoon. We’ve had another 3.75 inches of rain since this time last week. There are puddles all over the yard and you have to watch where you step. A lot of it has run off but if we keep enjoying sunshine in the next few days it should dry up pretty soon. There are storms predicted for Saturday but it’s all east of us.
There’s not much I can enjoy doing in the way of pulling weeds around the iris plants, too wet, but I can work on getting the SUV cleaned up. The rain storm on Wednesday washed a lot of dirt off of it but as usual the back hatch and windshield are still very dirty. I’ll get the shop vac out and take my time and get the inside cleaned and wiped down with Armor All. It’s been much too long since I conditioned the leather seats and the dash. The weather should be perfect, the garage is clean, it shouldn’t take that long…much easier than detailing the inside of the Dodge Mini Van we gave Audrey! It was time for us to down size and they needed more passenger space.
After I get the interior clean I’ll take it to the car wash and get the outside squeaky clean. We have a good automated car wash in town that isn’t terribly expensive. I just sit in the car and ride thru the car wash. Easy peasy.
We enjoyed our fried egg muffins for breakfast along with a pot of coffee. Brad had to run a couple of errands in town and brought lunch home. We ate a bit late so we won’t be very hungry for dinner. I think probably a toasted English muffin and a cup of yogurt would be perfect, just enough for me to take my evening supplements.
I was on Twitter earlier and apparently Hanoi Jane has lost what’s left of her ever lovin mind and is calling for Pro Life politicians to be murdered! Oh. My. Word. Such hatred, such venom! Satan is alive and well and working overtime.
Speaking of which…tomorrow is the start of the St. Joseph Novena and I’ll get each day’s prayers in my email to start the day. I got the link off of a Twitter post yesterday. I can start off with Morning Prayer, Liturgy of the Hours and finish with the Novena; Angelus Prayer at noon; Evening Prayer, Liturgy of the Hours in the evening; Night Prayer, Liturgy of the Hours and my nightly rosary prayers before bedtime. Great way to sanctify the day and prepare for bed.
I hope your Friday has been as blessed as ours. As always, remember it’s RED Friday! Remember Everyone Deployed!
