My daughter said one of her friends went today, with some other friends and the only reason why she didn't go today was because she wanted to go to her acrobatics classes today! I am SO grateful! I honestly don't know what I'd do if anything happened to my daughter.Blesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16369267622517848850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-54715367267791517942019-07-29T01:56:42.896-07:002019-07-29T01:56:42.896-07:00Thank you, Stephenie.

I think I need to keep up with the vacuuming, at least every other day, if not daily!<br /><br />Oh, how nice you had a good shower of rain! We could do with some rain down here, too! I'm glad you are having pleasant weather.

Today was not exceptionally hot, in fact most days have been fairly tolerable but we do use the AC sometimes. We had some clouds today which was good to shield us from some of the sun. We were out at a community event at a local museum, with barbecue food available, music, and stalls with crafts. I saw some amazing felting projects that one lady had done.Bushladynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-6050245534214592082019-07-28T13:17:13.301-07:002019-07-28T13:17:13.301-07:00It was good to see her out and about; she's fi...It was good to see her out and about; she's finally consented to a wheel chair, so it's easier for her to go places. :)<br /><br />I hope you were able to get things done this morning and spent a good afternoon at work. Most of our libraries are closed on a Sunday, but, there are a handful of them that are open on Sunday afternoons, 1-5 p.m. I know I appreciated them being open on a Sunday afternoon when my daughter was in middle school and had homework assignments due on Mondays! Middle school homework used to be posted online and I didn't have internet at home, until she started 7th grade. My daughter still remembers having to submit homework on paper and explain to the teachers about not having internet access at home and not being able to go to the library during the week because mother couldn't take her for various reasons (usually because my mother couldn't be left alone at home in the evenings). I tell my daughter it was character building, just like the bullying she endured in 4th and 5th grade when she transferred to a new school, but, looking back, I wish I had done things a little differently. So, as the parent of a child who needed access to the library on a Sunday afternoon, I thank you for working on a Sunday afternoon at the library. :)Blesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16369267622517848850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-25866378111692088462019-07-28T12:35:17.577-07:002019-07-28T12:35:17.577-07:00The prayer gatherings are usually held on a Saturd...The prayer gatherings are usually held on a Saturday evening/night, but, sometimes, they are held on a Sunday afternoon, or, occasionally, on a Friday night! It all depends on how busy people are and when it is most convenient to them. I had suggested, long ago, that they set aside one day, like the 3rd Saturday of the month, or something like that, so that people can plan around it and know to keep the date free, but, the others didn't want to do that. Instead, they sort of set a date that is most convenient to the majority, each month and go from there. <br /><br />I called my friend this morning, but she said she was having a headache (this heat is getting to everyone, I guess), so, we decided to get together another day. So, I am planning another day of flea abatement and reading! Hope you are having a relaxing day, yourself. :) Blesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16369267622517848850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-77502188998571214962019-07-28T04:43:02.009-07:002019-07-28T04:43:02.009-07:00I'm glad that Aunt T was able to make it to th...I'm glad that Aunt T was able to make it to the prayer gathering.
