Ahh, new paint knives still in the wrappers. These are so sharp, I cut my hand on one the other day. I finally understood why you can’t take them on a plane, although it would still be quite difficult to do any real damage with one.

It has been raining here for the past 6 weeks or so. We’ve only seen the sun 4 or 5 days in that time, today being one of them. The sun isn’t going to last long. They’ve already put clouds in the forecast for the rest of the day, when just a few hours ago it said bright sun all day. We’re back to rain tomorrow for the next 10 days, according to the forecast right now. 

My thoughts are with all the people in Texas who have experienced flooding. Some of the stories I’ve read are so sad. Lives have been lost. My heart goes out to everyone there.
