Gotta go into the closet

I know that I have a wireless mouse somewhere. I think in a computer bag, in the closet, in the office. I had forgotten that having a wireless mouse is part of what I found essential to using my laptop happily. We were going to get up and on our way early this morning. I had a lot of laundry and shopping to do. Bob overslept. I got up early. For breakfast I made sausage gravy. It was so good. We got out of the house at 10:30 and arrived home at 3:30. The dryer has been running constantly since then. For lunch we ate at Arby's. They had meal deals with double meat sandwiches that were very good. I just ate fruit and cottage cheese this evening. I am hoping for no rain tonight. Church is tomorrow then maybe a peaceful afternoon at home.

You mentioned the closet and I immediately thought of tornadoes.

I have a couple of hallways that would be good. If we were really in danger there is an open church with a basement about three blocks down.

Me too! There's a tornado warning north of Oxford, Mississippi (where Old Miss is located).

The clothes are all dry. It would be better if I could hang them. Today has been peaceful, mostly.

I wish our Arby's had that deal! So far lately, just the Monday special of Classic Beef Combo for $4.99. That's not bad! Have a great Sunday!

Our Arby's always seems to have lots of deals. I really like the Greek Gyros.

@GardenGerty That's my favorite there! The ones we got last week has so much meat on them you could hardly bite into them! A half one would have filled me up for I ate the whole thing and then regretted it.

I did too. We bought ready made salads for a good lunch, then snoozed and other quiet things.

Old batteries were corroded, but I got a new one. I am pleased with the difference.

Whew! Like Amber, I thought you were heading to the closet for a tornado warning. I totally agree with you: you have to have a wireless mouse to have a laptop and use it without pulling your hair out.

The storms are out of the forecast here. We'll still have clouds but aren't supposed to get more rain until next weekend. That will be nice. It'll let us get the yard done and started again. Have a good night.

Your forecast sounds like ours. We were supposed to get in the 80's today but did not . Looks like I will be outside a lot this week.

@GardenGerty Yeah, the forecast lied! It's raining now! I couldn't see to go out and mow today. We reached 88F by 3 pm but it dropped to 82F when it started raining. I'll be out when I can see and it's not raining.

Heat was in the forecast, but it stayed moderate. Church was good and I have chosen to observe a day of rest today.

Out temperature was very mild today, not too hot at all. Fast food tastes really good. I think we will actually have a week without rain.

The cost balances a bit by not running the washer here at home or heating the water. I do need to replace my washer. When I do I will hang clothes more often, because it will be one load at a time not six.

@GardenGerty I have a question Does a washer with a bigger load capacity take up more space than a standard washing machine
