It's morning again. I've had about 5 hrs' sleep again. (I really do know better, but....*sigh* I did enjoy myself last night, despite impending sleep dep.)

It's raining again. Not as hard as before, but enough. There were 3.25" in the rain gauge at work at 6am, to go with the 1.25" we'd gotten before 4:30 yesterday. Not supposed to get too much during the day today (although it could be argued that any rain right now might be too much), but there's a chance of another inch or two tonight.

Sorry 'bout that. Did I mention lack of sleep?

Mom's had 2-3 inches of rain out her way, so we've tabled the fence plans for a drier visit. I *think* I managed to satisfactorily weasel out of meeting her at church on our way west tomorrow--told her we'd need to stop at the hardware store and pick up stuff, and wouldn't it be nice if we went on home and got some things fixed before she got there? It's pretty transparent, I know. But you'd think as long as she's been trying and failing to get us to go to church with her, she'd give up by now.

Note to self: take off pent tonight. Can't wear that at Mom's. (Didn't take it off at all when we were camping, left it on since we've been back. Folks at work didn't notice or care. Mom will. *wince*)

The sun's out, for now. Supposed to be at least partly sunny unti this evening. We got another 1/4" since 6am, and we're supposed to get 1-2" in tonight's storm. The Kansas monsoon season is late this year.

I guess that means I ought to do up the laces on my boots, find my work keys, and go get something done. Not much on the schedule today...check trails for erosion (though, with the big tractor down, we can't do anything about it for a while), pull some weeds, get building trash. There will be more knitting this afternoon.

Another note to self: go to bed earlier tonight. Really. You'll enjoy it.

Neglected to mention

...that Robyn had a good First Friday show. Sold some jewelry, and at least one of the Surface Design pieces downstairs. Yay!

Time to make like a tree and leaf

Thanks to those who kept me entertained this afternoon--I'm sneaking home early, since there's no one here to notice my leaving. I will probably be online from home in an hour or so, if you want to catch me on IM then.
