Waiting

Here's what happens when I wait too long to write...too much shit happens.  I went to Eden Seminary for a day of classes...and didn't like it.  So now what?  Well, it's possible that Jules and I will start a company...I know, I know...actually, what do I know?  Nothing.  So, a little research about schools, alotta research about the possibility of this company (more later), and waiting.

Then Saturday, I spread mulch and Jules played golf with Kell.  Small issue of a storm brewing, they got off the course a little late and as Jules was putting the clubs in the back of Kell's BMW Suv, softball hail started falling.  Jules got in the car as quickly as she could, but still got hit on her back, the back of her thigh, both ankles...and then the glass in the rear window shattered.  She was bleeding profusely from numerous cuts and Kell spent the first hour they were home, picking glass out of those cuts.

When I got there, everyone was calm, but Jules was shocky, so...order pizza!  We got one slice down when the next storm hit.  Now we are running across the street to a basement, me half carrying Jules, with Little Bit on the leash...well, we all made it with only minor drama and hung out in this tiny basement until the storm blew over.

Jules and I had had enough, so we headed home, only to come upon a traffic jam on 55 from a multiple car accident.  We followed several others lead and went back up the exit ramp and made our way to our bridge across the Mississippi, by taking side streets.  We made it to Waterloo, ordered more pizza, got to the house and had to go into OUR basement.  At least we have a couch, the pizza, beer and wine...so we were not in bad shape.

Well, Jules was...she has multiple contusions - the one on the back of her leg the size of a ... softball.  Not pretty, nor does it feel good.  Do all of those injuries keep her from power washing the deck and vacuuming the whole house?  Of course not.  It's been a long weekend and I'm ready for there to be no more emergencies!

So waiting with less trauma and drama would be good.  Oh - forgot to mention the Women's Spirituality Conference in NYC where I got to see Brene' Brown!!  It was awesome!  Took the train to Boston and got to see Mom, John, Julie and Katelyn...all were good.  So those are the basic details - I'll give the insider stuff later:)
