We just had a tropical storm roll through here.
It came earlier than expected so I was caught out and about during the beginning rains. I was able to take one to karate and another to ballet, before coming home and enjoying the rain.
I expect there's some damage out there
It wasn't as bad as before and we as a city were prepared, but I know there's flooding somewhere and really, haven't had it in me to check. I know everyone I know is safe, and I'm letting that be good enough.
I have a rare day off tomorrow where I'm off from work but the kids are at school, and I'm ready to pretend I'm a SAHM (best occupation ever). When I go back to work on Tuesday, I'll make sure that the roads to my office are safe, etc - and I'll deal with the news.
We also have Operation Safe California in full effect - so that's its own nightmare.
Still, I had a blessed weekend
Today is Sunday and I was able to attend church and pray, the more I go, the more I want to go. I even stay after to hang out with the community for a bit. I love it when they sell breakfast. Today it was pancakes, with syrup and strawberries, scrambled eggs, a hash brown, sausage, orange juice or coffee (or both) chips and chili. $10 bucks a plate.
I was able to take a nap in the middle of the day.
I went to my parents house today where my mom took advantage of the weather and made us some albondigas.
And we finished it off with a chocolate cake to celebrate my dad's birthday.
It was kinda a super simplified celebration for him this year... regular ole Sunday Dinner and a cake.
I think I may have made a mistake... a celebration was in order and we did not really celebrate. I think next week may be too late but... I'll have to figure something out.
