Hubby trimmed plants (yaupon) and I trimmed the low branches on a crape myrtle tree and a juniper tree. We are still waiting on the promised 95% chance of rain, it is getting closer to us.
As soon as I get my shower, I think I will read my Romantic Comedy by Emma St. Clair, "the Buy-In". Laughter is good for the soul and this book about a small town is funny. Jacobo, I love this page and all the cute pictures on it. So...
After several weeks of very high and gusty winds (my hair looked worse than that), it is a calm, cloudy, foggy, overcast morning again here for the second day in a row. I know in the middle of summer, we will miss the wind but for right now it is a welcome change since we are only at 63° at 10 am. We are hoping for some soaking rains for all of Texas that is still in the drought stage.
So rain or shine (or cloudy), cool or warm, whatever your day is like today, may Blessings and Hugs be in store for you. I hope you will share your smile and make others really wonder what is going on in your head.
What a difference a day makes! What a blessing from God! We were 97 yesterday after lunch, then it dropped to 74 mid afternoon. Today we started at 60 today and at noon we were only 62! We only got 1/10" of rain but we lost electricity from 10pm until 11:30 pm just as the storms got near us.
It will sure make watering the plants this week much more enjoyable with 4 days below 80°. So I am sharing my Blessings and Hugs with you. Grab them!
I got out early this morning and did all I could before it got so hot I had to come inside. Then I finished my household chores so now I can kick back and enjoy the rest of the day. I hope you've had a good day so far and have a wonderful afternoon/evening!
If we are in the 90's tomorrow, it will tie a record of 15 days in a row in May. Then we are due a cool front and will wake up Sunday morning in the 50's and have several days only in the 70's. Woo Hoo!
Already got the yard mowed this morning because you know what is coming tonight, tomorrow night, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday... possible RAIN. Let the grass begin to grow.
At our place, the sun and rain also mean more flowers! So I am sharing this one with you. I took this picture yesterday evening in our front flower bed. Now time to go watch for all the birds and especially Hummingbirds which I will also share with you! Blessings & Hugs!
Good Thursday Morning! It is almost Friday and time for the weekend. This hot month of May has flown by.
We spent most of the day yesterday in the yard. I know, I know, you are surprised and shocked. I put up 3 new wind spinners (the one above came from Costco). The 3 older ones that I have had for many years, I took apart, spray painted, and reassembled.
So now I am heading out to water all the wilting plants from our mid 90's for almost 10 days so that the bees and hummingbirds will pollinate all the flowers.
Voted✅ Tahoe washed, inspected, & registered✅ Bought Milk✅ Ate Tacos✅ Bought groceries✅ Costco list completed✅ Put together 2 new Wind Spinners for yard✅ It was a successful day!
So be on the lookout for what this Hump Day will bring your way. I am grateful for your precious friendship. Now I am off to smell the flowers.
I've been planting, transplanting and repotting some other plants. I thinnk I'm almost done with all that part and now waiting for the rain to move in so I don't have to keep watering. I hope you have a good day!
Blessings of rain to start the new week. We ended up with almost 1-1/2" rain. Of course, it was from 10 pm to 4 am with high winds, thunder and lightning. So one dog vibrated the entire night. Of course she is sound asleep now!
Early voting is this week only in Texas for the Party Runoff election and Election Day next Tuesday. We will probably vote tomorrow. Also our vehicle inspections and registrations are due this month and next month. So we have a busy week in store.
We have already had 10 days of over 90° in the DFW area for May with 5 more predicted. And several more high temperature records will be broken, 97°.
