It's raining right now. I've got the TV muted so I can listen. It's one of my favorite sounds in the world.

I was just outside, a few minutes ago, checking out the back yard and I could feel the rain in the air. You know that warm heaviness just before the bubble pops? Oh! And now thunder!! I love it.

Kent should be on his way home. It's fajitas tonight for dinner. It turned out to be just the two of us, though, but I'm happy with that. He's got work to catch up on with Nevada, and I've got some business related stuff to work on, but it will be nice doing our things under the same roof. Sometimes that's all I need from him. Just having him here with me. It's nice not being so alone anymore. *shrug*

Kari called from school. She said she wasn't feeling well, and when she got here she admitted she was on her period. She also suffered somewhat of an embarrassing situation as a result. I had to sympathize. So I let her stay with me for the afternoon. She took a couple Tylenol and slept for a couple hours and then came down and we talked school and boys. I love that she talks with me the way she does, so I cherish these moments while I still have them. She's an incredible girl, though a bit boy crazy. But aren't most 12 year olds?? I'm hoping it's just a phase. I am in awe that she used to be the (still)quiet little girl who happily ran after her older brothers, doing all her best to keep up. She's developed an intelligent and sarcastic humor, that I love! She's a joy to talk to.

Friends is on..good laughs to be had there.
