Murky but Good

June so soon, already beginning to slip by me.
...
All week I'd log on n think I should quickly write something else to cover over the flag/Mem-day post, but kept drawing blanks after work. What's wrong with a Mem-Week, anyhow? N I like my abstract flag fragment.
...
Sometimes I wanna write what I think, other times I try harder to avoid it. This week, I was still so tired from sleep missed last week-end, I barely had the energy to keep up on my regular blog-reads. It's so easy to get behind on that facet of Blog-land. There's a handful I check every time I'm online, then all the others I rotate through. Somedays I don't even log on, then I'm further behind.
...
For the record, I always read through ALL the posts I've missed since the last visit, n try to comment unless I run outa time. Almost every night after work I end up saying "Sh--! It's 4 a.m. again!" in blog-land. (I need to find a job with better hours).
...
This week-end it's amazing I'm takin time to blog at all. I've just spent a few hours on the phone answering a lengthy LD call after an afternoon of drivin around to do weekly errands, n here I am wanting to post the minute I get the chance.
...
For the first time in weeks there's no demanding disasters to report, yay!
It's rainy n drizzly here this week-end, keeping the loud people away, yay!
It's only pouring intermittently, n stopped during my errands, yay!
I can't mow the lawn in the rain, yay!
The pollen's washed down,
n it's warm enough to keep the windows open a bit for fresh air, yay!
...
Theres been millions of gypsy-moth catepillars invading the outdoors here since last week-end. They rapel down long threads n get sticky, spider-web-like-debris all over everything, n crawl everywhere eating leaves off the trees n finding places to put up their cocoons. I must've picked several hundred off the deck already. Even the birds are sick of eating them.
Now they're all getting washed down off the deck with the rainfall.
...
It's not raining to the flooding point, only about 4 inches compared to the Mother's Day flood amount of 10 to 14 inches in the worst places.
...
Even though I had to get up n out to the Post Office n Bank before they close after only a couple hours of sleep, it still feels restful to lounge-back on a rainy, dreary day of grey...
...
It's nice to not hafta rush your sis 1500 miles away off the line for pressing matters. The luxury of her week-end cell-phone plan is the free call, n I had time. It kinda forced me to take a chill-out when other-wise I would've just kept chippin away at the chores. Of course, some putterin got done with one hand, til I got to the point of waiting cause I needed two.
...
It takes alot to slow me down once I'm goin. Sometimes I make people nervous because I'd rather not sit down most times. It's a challenge for me to relax n not become lethargic for the rest of the day. A side affect of missed sleep deficit plus allergy meds needed to make it past the pollen season. The exception is needing to rest the pounding soles when they've been bruised on cement.
...
I can't stand getting back up once I've planted myself down for the day, n why I try to be finished with the day's important chores before chillin out. It was tough but I got back up n finished the dishes n a few other odds, finally done about 11:30 pm ... time to relax once more n catch my two fav series shows, "24" n "Enterprize," (as I do this post) the only ones I can keep track of with my schedule. I do really miss Prime-time TV, especailly "LOST". It seems the only show I can catch week-nightly is Jimmy Kimmel, which has been on re-runs for the past few weeks, (so I won't watch).
Good thing for blog entertainment!
