Saturday evening

So far our weekend has not been particularly exciting. We received notification a couple of days ago that in a little over a week, the city will be picking up brush in our neighborhood. They do this twice a year. Early this morning we trimmed trees and bushes and carried all of the debris to the curb.

Then I cleaned the garage, changed the air conditioner filters, and did three loads of laundry. The last load is drying right now.

We just got another heavy rain. After the sudden rainstorm last evening, I thought it might not rain again over the weekend. I guess I was wrong.

I hope not to find the fellowship hall at church flooded when I go down tomorrow morning to prepare for the covered dish luncheon. I will certainly be glad when the roof project is finished. The church was built In two sections and I think the new roof is just to replace the one over the oldest section. It will be quite expensive, so it is a good thing that the parsonage was sold to pay for it.

The plumeria plant in our back yard is really looking good after the rains we have gotten lately. Rain seems to have extra nutrients that the plants don’t get by hand-watering. The rain seems to have stopped. I wonder if we will get any more overnight.

We had homemade potato-cheese soup for supper, with chunks of challa bread. It was delicious.
