Monday, Monday ...


Personal: Weather was great this weekend (in Springfield). Celebrated L's birthday. We ate at Applebees and saw "Godspell" at New Salem theater then had cake at home. Returned a pair of jean shorts (too big) and need to return a t-shirt (too small). Bought a new dryer at Sears on Sunday because the old one is dying. L dried some clothes at her friend LH's house and we ate dinner there. It turns out that L is still trying to finish assignments for her Autism class (Tuesday night deadline). L chelated M all weekend. I leave tomorrow at 2:00 o'clock for Microchip Masters conference. No clothes for trip and no dryer! Called Mom and R in KC: Mom is getting new house and laundry help, D returns tomorrow, and R leaves Thursday. R's house is essentially sold but the paperwork lags and she needs to find a house in Austin. Mom said that Felicia called: Ima is in nursing care facility (temporary?) while Cecil is having tumor over stomach removed. Ben is a big help. I wrote out bills and need to mail same after I balance checkbook.
News: St Louis had two storms last week and much is without power. New York Cithy has power outages to. Springfield has some outages too. Crazy weather this summer. Mid East rages in Iraq and Lebanon (SNAFU).
Weather: Threatened to storm on Saturday night at New Salem. Sunday was nice.
Sports: KC Royals are back to their losing ways (0.347 season so far).
To Do: Prep for trip ... cleanup finances ... birthday card to Rox.
