I'll report back after, yeah I'll definitely watch the bride when it comes out

Hub took away about 14 contractor bags worth of leaves that I'd picked up across the week in both yards. Allegedly we get some rain soon and maybe gusts and so hopefully the last bits will drop soon. We need the rain badly. It's windy here and just a bit too dusty. The pollen is starting to come down so I'm glad I got up MOST of the leaves from Live Oaks this season....

Other than that, I did some software testing (exciting I know), but it was nice to be able to sit still for a minute.

Today I am going to Ireland to meet my sister and an American cousin who lands tomorrow, we are going to have a bit of a tour around the West of Ireland

How lovely... I have friends in Galway who I've visited a couple of times and managed to see a bit of the west of Ireland. One of the most beautiful places on earth. Have a wonderful time.

I had a whirlwind (in a good way) day in an unexpected way. I didn't expect to be out so long, but we hit up the donut shop, art store, Target ($150 for husband's medication... thanks Aetna ) and went to the park. Admittedly it was a lot for child, but she did really well but still was over stimulated so I had a lot of interruptions for the rest of the day. We got home and I had to answer a technical email. Despite the distractions and general mental toastiness, I did a good job representing things (with pictures!) I feel as to why certain code should be handled a different way and hopefully made that case...

But I ended the email with "Thanks, <new line: insert other person's name>". So I'm sure they'll get to enjoy that on their end:



Edit: Yeah, still toasted

…that’s a lot but as you said, in a good way to feel as though you got so much done and had some park time out as well…wishing you a more chilled day of de-toasting today, though…and I’m sure they will appreciate your signing off on the email and appreciate that you did still find the energy to reply…

Attended a Lent-course drop-in. I differ in personal philosophy from organised religion in many ways but I still do like to touch base and engage with different slices of the community, even if the internal metaphysics differs privately.

We made some memories so definitely worth it, Ammi. Today it is looking like it is prone to rain outside and child is already asking me for paint supplies. Which is fine, because that's right behind where I need to be I was up later than I needed to be but I got my office re-cleared.

We had a drought that was ended at least for us over the weekend (woo hoo!). Some areas of TX/LA (not here) are meant to get hail and possible tornados in the next 24 hours or so. Today it's cloudy but it feels like a nice day. I'm just happy it rained, period.
