Storms and Casts and Zombies, Oh My! - Random Tuesday Thoughts



So I haven't been blogging much because my computer at home was fried by a storm early this spring. But since my thoughts have been crazy and I can't focus on anything, I will use my lunch time today to be random.

Storms have been rolling through here several times a week. Last Friday's was intense. The thunder rattled the windows and sent the kitties racing around the living room, then back to the windows. Kaemie had to go outside to find a hail stone to bring in. Kenna cringed on the couch with each "boom," even with her big firing range ear plugs on.

Kenna gets out of her casts in one week! She still won't be able to walk until they make her leg braces, but she'll be about five pounds lighter. That won't make carrying her and climbing up and down the stairs to our apartment physically easier, but psychologically easier. I'm hoping it will change her attitude, too. I was hoping two months of being in leg casts would give her an appreciation for life and her family, but no. However, she has managed to learn to string the curse words she knows in to new and creative phrases. Lookin' on the bright side...

Kaemie is going to try out to be an extra in a movie being filmed here in town. She is auditioning to be a Zombie. She should be able to handle that.

I am working on my 101 in 1001 list. I've almost conquered the coffee machine.

I can't even focus enough to be random. This is all I've got today. Luckily there is always next Tuesday...
