So, today we went to a family reunion with some half-family members. It was awkward. So as we were getting in the car to leave and we saw a dollar and three quarters on the messy passenger floorboards. The windows were opened someone must have dropped it in there. I KNOW we didn't have a buck twenty-five before we got there. And I doubt it was a relative since they didn't know what our car looked like. As far as I can tell, a complete stranger dropped it in our window. Which is awesome, because this is a tight month and we ran our of garbage bags a couple days ago. So things worked out. Perhaps a little sign from a higher-up to keep up whatever we have been doing. Though I am not sure what exactly that is. Holding our tongues with relatives, talking gibberish with random kids in parks, or just being at odds with the world in general.
Who's to know? Also, when we got back from buying our garbage bags we saw a double rainbow. We watched this video on youtube a couple weeks ago, so we couldn't resist running around the yard singing the double rainbow song. It was pretty fun. People in cars probably thought we were nuts. I realized something, I won't know those people in 20 years. I will know my son, and we will have better relationship because of things like this. So too bad for everybody else. It was fun. Azimuth even tried to say "Double rainbow". It sounded more like "Da-ra-ra-ra". We knew what he meant.
We took pictures. I wish I could figure out my husband's camera. Maybe I will add the pic later.
