Jun. 18th, 2009 07:46 amStill no rain. Seems we got some all around Kent, but not in Kent. And it ticks me off, because my flowers really need it. We've had the sprinklers going for 15 minutes every 12 hours for the past couple of days now, so the grass is greening up again, but the flowers in the front are starting to wilt.
It looks like rain again this morning, but I'm not getting my hopes up. It looked like this all day yesterday and...nothing.
Lance had to get up at some unholy hour this morning because he had to drive down to McChord and catch a plane. He's flying today and tomorrow and he has to get up really early tomorrow too. So he slept in the guest room last night since he went to bed early, and Reece got confused. She went to bed in our bedroom shortly after he did. I was in the living room watching The Triplets of Belleville, which I borrowed from Kathy. It was very bizarre and very French at the same time. I think I liked the music better than the film.
After that I was over, I finished up Letters to a Young Poet and then went to bed. I had bizarre dreams last night, probably somewhat influenced by the film I just watched.
Today I have a short article to write about the weather/climate in Maastricht, Netherlands. It was a subject up for grabs on one of the sites I do writing for, so I took it, since I lived so close to Maastricht and it's an easy topic. That only needs to be a maximum of 200 words, so it shouldn't take long to do.
Kathy and I have plans this afternoon to do crafts. She has a project in mind to do for her son, so I'm anxious to see what that's all about. We've been making plans to put out a line of our own candles and soaps for sale on etsy, but I'm not sure when we're going to do that. I'm kind of anxious to get started on that. And we would need to find a way to make our product unique from all the similar products that are flooding the market. That's the hard part. And she wants to do decoupage as well, which would also be something worth pursuing as a way to make extra money. And it's a good way to recycle the ridiculous number of magazines that I own.
