We have had wind and rain so I know
that we are missing much more that others have had to endure. Yesterday when I
was starting my drive to work it was just raining a little. As I waited to turn
left to the on ramp for the interstate, it started to rain much harder. The black
truck ahead of me was just starting to make that left turn when another black
truck from across the intersection almost slammed into it. I would guess there
was about two feet of clearance once the interloper stopped. The truck in front
of me, after some hesitation, proceeded up the ramp. The truck in the
intersection sat a moment, but I waved it on. It continued with its left turn. By
the time I got up on the interstate it was raining hard enough that I had some
trouble seeing the lane markings. I just hoped the person in front of me could
tell what the right space to be in was.
Luckily that serious rain did not last
very long. It was still raining when I stopped at the library, but it was little
enough to easily get in the building.
Today I delivered some of the
neighborhood newsletters. Because of the cold wind I only did a small amount of
the route. I am hoping that Saturday and Sunday are ok for finishing the job. Leroy
will be home so he will probably help. That means we can get it done, however I
will not get in as many steps as I like to do. I like taking walks that have a
purpose other than for steps. I might have to walk around the block a few times
because I only have 7,000 steps so far today.
