odds and ends

Aaron’s been working overtime. He has to be to work by 5 AM and gets off at 5 PM, Mon-Thurs. Then on Friday’s he works 5-3:30 pm. While this gives me a little extra time to myself, I’m exhausted. I end up getting up when he does because of the noise (not like he’s noisy, but the kind of noise that’s enough to wake someone and keep them awake) and the dogs think it’s time to get up anyway…so they get very excited and running around the house. My extra free time in the morning is spent in bed, just relaxing some (I know if I tried to go back to sleep, I’d oversleep. And when I set an alarm, I never relax enough to sleep…never have, even as a kid). My extra time after work is spent watching shows that I want to see.

I got a random text yesterday, hoping it’s from a wrong number text. The person said “you are a prick aren’t you” and signed it as “~blessed~”. I responded with ‘who is this’. I never got a response back. I was a little paranoid cause lately I’ve been unfriending people on Facebook. Or blocking some. I was worried if it was one of those people being upset about an unfriend. I unfriended people because they’re people I haven’t talked to in person or on Facebook in years. Or they were the people who post things 38 times a day. I know I can un-follow, but I feel if I do that, then I can take them off Facebook. I’m down to 388 ‘friends’ on there. But, in reality, who actually has 300+ friends?!

There was a storm that passed through here yesterday. Got 2.5 inches in 1.5 hours. Then rained again some during the night. I haven’t checked the rain gauge yet. This summer has been wet. In the past month or so my town has had a few storms that brought 2+ inches at a time (1 storm we got 4.5 inches or more). The rivers around here (especially the smaller rivers) have been at or close to flooding. The dam here in town has opened more of the gates to let water through.
