Today

Today wasn't a bad day. That's a good thing. I feel sorry for my hedges, they look sad since I trimmed them. :-(

Anyway, I went to work today. It's a blur, so much happened, so much to do. I am looking forward to tomorrow and hope I can get caught up on helping all the people who have needed me this week but I haven't been able to help due to higher priority projects from this week.

I met a friend at Barnes & Noble, we were gonna have coffee but she said she'd had a big lunch and drank a lot so we spent the time picking fun at books, and wandering the store looking at everything. I never get to see a bookstore, I buy most of my books online. Heck, I rarely go into an electronics store, Best Buy, etc... It's a pain to go shopping sometimes. I usually only go shopping for groceries or clothes, things which don't pack or ship very well I guess.

On the way home, it was about 7:30. The sun is low in the sky, but not setting yet. As I drove down Chenal towards the highway I saw the trees. All the oaks are full green, beautiful green leaves. It makes me even sadder I butchered my hedges yesterday. They were taking over the whole flowerbed, would that have been so bad I think now. Oh well, they'll survive. I just need to go back and them them up a little nicer when they get some new growth.

The river bridge was awesome. Coming down the hill I saw the river. I see it every day, every day it's different. The sandbars, the water level, the water birds. The Big Dam Bridge is always great to see, at night it glitters and sparkles with light. By day it highlights the Lock and Dam. The river is beautiful, the trees are all so green. The water this morning was muddy with the rain, but on the way home is was gorgeous. The sky was all swirls of clouds, clouds with shades of deep blue, light blue. It makes me thankful for God's creation. Every year that goes by I am more amazed by everything God has given us. It's truly a beautiful world, we just need to take better care of it.
