It has been raining again... a lot. The rain gauge at supper time read 1.08", but considering that the ground is saturated, water is standing everywhere. Before it was over, this rain event produced over 3" of rain.
The walls are closing in again. Some friends have invited us to take our camper to their private ranch about 2 1/2 hours away this weekend, and so we might take them up on that. Not sure.
The only thing that helps us keep up with the day is the work-at-home situation. Stephanie had an online faculty meeting using the Zoom program. I had videos to upload for my Navarro Classes. It took a while to do, but I was pretty much where I needed to be by lunchtime.
Stephanie made egg salad for lunch. The chickens are giving 11 eggs per day now.
I took a short nap to try to get over a headache and, in general, an emotional slump. Gov. Abbot has extended this shelter-in-place until the end of the month of April. I am going to go crazy if this continues for long. A weekend away may become "essential."
Sadie and I took a walk to the mailbox and discovered a new calf on the farm: A pretty little gray baby.
We are tired of cooking and eating at home, but there is little choice these days. We are also worried about local businesses, so we ordered Mexican food from El Mexicana Grill. I also ordered for Mom and Dad, and I picked it all up.
Tonight is Movie Night. The Adventurer: Curse of the Midas Box on Amazon Prime is tonight's choice: A bit of steampunk fantasy goodness, it seems.
After Sadie went to bed, we caught up on Sunday's Outlander episode, and a few minutes for an online guitar lesson or two before bed.
I will say this: Fergus is glad we are home.
