1/2 foot

I think there was 1/2 foot of water in one of my buckets by the time it finished raining. It was quite the downpour.

Yesterday after I got home from work, I spent quite a bit of the day cleaning the house as apparently on Mon. and Tues. I did nothing - not even dishes! I ended up with 5 loads yesterday!

James of the 'rules are to be kept' fame, broke a rule yesterday. Now, James is a boy who keeps rules that I don't even have, so we don't have much in the way of rule breaking. He didn't want to eat dinner (which is fine with me- sometimes I don't either) and so I said I would save his dinner for later and I would microwave it when he was hungry. While I was out of the kitchen, he snuck a cookie! I was really shocked that he would do this, because of who he is. I am not shocked in general as I have seen AJ do it a lot. But James? The guy who asks me about whatever he eats? This was a surprise! I took the (helf-eaten)cookie away from him. Before bed he had carrots and his turkey sausage, so he didn't go to bed hungry!

Kim is coming for dinner tonight before her sign language exam in the city. I put some turkey sausages in a chili. We'll see how that works out.
