saturdays................

since i lost four hours of work yesterday due to being sick (exhaustion plays really bad games with my body these days) i have had quite a bit to catch up on today. last night we got a real rain. it rained thursday night for a bit at the kids game, but not for all night. it actually rained all night and most of the morning today. amazing. my cactus will be beautiful tomorrow. owen and jule spent the day here with me working and have had fun, judging by the amount of dirt on their bodies and clothing............. nikki had her first cross-country meet in the rain this morning. she placed 13th out of 60 girls (6-8th graders). she was second in her school. she was pretty happy about it. she has decided that she will play volleyball next year instead though. so, for all of you that keep up with jovi's page, you will remember the ninja page she had up earlier this week. owen and jule spend much of their time here playing make-beleive using scraps of whatever i have on the floor at the time. today it was selvege edges of tommy bahama fabric i was making patio furniture out of. they made scarves and mittens and belts and necklaces out of it. jule runs in and says "owen, we can be ninjas". i said, oh are you good ninjas? jule says" no, we are real ninjas. Owen, lets be invisible ninjas........." so i had to giggle thinking of zion earlier this week. apparently, ninja fever has spread country-wide affecting those under 8 everywhere. watch out, your neighborhood could be struck next. it is 75 degrees here right now. i am wearing jeans for the first time this season. i put my comfortor on the bed last night also. i bought it last year, but it was too warm to put on. fall is approaching.......................
