Hi folks,
I'm still waiting for that 90% chance of rain that was predicted for
today. I just looked outside and it looks suspiciously like sunshine
instead. Maybe the rain's like me, just running perpetually behind.
The gas line break on campus kind of put a kink in the cooking over here
yesterday, but I think everything's back under control now. It did
serve to remind me, and several others I bet, of the importance of
having the little emergency walkie talkies that were issued to all the
Emergency Response Team members on campus in the office every day.
Ours, (mine and Dana's), didn't work at first, so we had to get that
issue taken care of, and I really didn't get in the habit of going and
getting it to have in the office every morning from the start like I
should have. Then yesterday when the emergency call went out and I went
to get mine out of Dana's office, Sally and Dana were busy elsewhere and
the office was locked so I couldn't get in to get it. That'll teach me,
but I did go first thing this morning and got mine so I'd have it
ready. Of course it helped to remember that we were having a Building
Monitors meeting today at lunch, and when I saw all those BP, etc.
trucks parked on campus, I knew there would be a lot of activity around
today, so I'd better be prepared for anything.
Destiny and I had gone to take her boyfriend back home yesterday evening
when my husband called and said, "You'll never guess what happened." I
knew from his tone it probably wasn't a good thing either. He had run
to town while we were gone and just before he got back home some deer
ran across the highway in front of him, and with a vehicle coming at him
in the other lane and one behind him he couldn't go anywhere to avoid
hitting it. Of course it killed the poor deer and did a fair amount of
damage to the front of his pickup. He wasn't hurt, just startled pretty
good and aggravated, (and lucky, really, it couldn've been much worse.)
I told him next time I leave him at the house, stay there.
Our menu for today includes:
Indian tacos
Pinto beans
Crispy cube potatoes
Corn
Cabbage
Baby carrots
Cornbread
Hot ham and cheese on a bun
And for dessert, have some luscious Strawberry Shortcake.
Have a great day, and watch out for deer and other animals crossing the
road,
Rhoda :-)
