We got another 6/10" rain today so that puts us over 3.5" for this week. What a way to start May! You can see the water standing in our creek that runs through our yard when we get lots of rain.
The worst part of a rainy day is doing inside chores instead of being outside with my hands in the dirt. At least I can take a break and visit with you; however, I hear that whip cracking. And I want to be able to finish before Friday gets here.
Hi there. It sure would be nice to see the sun here. Its been days since we have seen it. But tomorrow it will be out so I guess I will enjoy the cloudy cool day as the temperatures will be up tomorrow. How are you doing? Hopefully good. I'm doing good. I got my hair cut yesterday and blonde hi lights put in. I love it. It feels so good. Nothing like getting your hair done to brighten up your day. Well take care my friend and hugs to you. Cheryl
May the fourth be with you! I hope you had just a wonderful day. I bought a few groceries this morning and Hubby cut up some tree limbs to put in our trash can. Then we went to Elmo, Texas for lunch.
And we wanted to see the Transformer. So Elmo is just a spot in the road on an older highway (Hwy 80) that was replaced years ago with I-20. But we went for the cheeseburgers too!
Now we are waiting for more storms to move in between 10 pm and 4 am with rain possible through 3 pm tomorrow. Blessings & Hugs for you and your family as I am swimming off to find something else to do today. OK, as I go looking for Trouble, my middle name.
good morning Pal, sounds like you had a busy weekend with Dominoes and activities at the Post. Yes, we've had the AC going here evrey day too. I'm always reluctant to start using it because once we do there's no going back. lol. Meaning Summer is here whether we like it or not. I'm thankful to be surrounded by trees too, which provide a lot of nice shade in the Summer. We've had afternoon thunderstorms the last 3 days in a row but very little rain. I've been out watering my pepper plants and flowers almost daily. We are very foggy this morning but the sun will burn it off soon. Happy mid-week! Lots of hugs, Beth
Hi there. I sure wish the weather would make up its mind what its going to do. Its been a very windy afternoon and we are in a frost advisory from 1 am until like 9 or 10 in the morning. So I either have to cover up my plants or bring them in the house. We did get some rain last night but I put my plants were they wouldn't get any rain as they are still trying to dry out from getting a lot of rain water on them. I hope you are doing good my friend. I'm doing good,just have had a busy day. Take care my friend and enjoy the rest of your day. Hugs--Cheryl
Most of the DFW area got rain last night and early this morning. We had 2" between 4:30 and 6 am. There was no sleeping through it as the thunder was loud and the dogs were NOT happy.
Now we have blue skies and it is a beautiful morning. We will have more rain over the next four days and by the weekend we will be in the mid 90's. WHAT? The wind is 20mph right now and the forecast says it will be windy tonight.
Let's just make this a great month no matter what the weather is and have some fun. School will be out soon and vacations will be happening.
Let the dancing and the blessings continue! So glad we are friends! Hugs!
Hello Pal, we had a good weekend. Storms moved in late yesterday and got lots of thunder but not much rain. Sun is out again now and it'a nice day. Hope your first week of May is dee-vine!!
May flowers! I have so many more than this group and love sharing them with you. Do you remember picking flowers for your Mom? I love the variety of flowering plants in my yard.
These are called Teal We Meet Again. Boy, look at those dry and old hands! You can surely tell they love working outside and need more hand cream. The mower was running again yesterday but Hubby is so sore all over his body.
Last night after 11 I was outside again taking pictures of some of my solar lights. Then I got up before 6 am to enjoy the cool front that got rid of our humidity (which was already back before noon). This reminds me, it is almost time for Texas Longhorn baseball.
May Day and Sunday blessings and hugs coming your way as I dance outside and back inside today. Hope you will join me!
Saturday is here and our rain chances seem to have gone away until Sunday night. Today Hubby is taking another shot at getting the new drive belt on the riding lawn mower.
The belt replacement on the mower deck was completed yesterday, but the drive belt has been a challenge even after many youtube videos. Please say a prayer!
I thought I would share a picture of the front of our home. I replaced some of the solar lights that were old. The cross and the light on it makes this one of my favorite pictures.
This is one of my newest additions to put up in the backyard. A solar hot air balloon wind spinner. Yes I have many different balloon wind spinners. Anyway, I guess I had better go check on Hubby and get a few things done today.
Hey! I'd like to go back to when I could walk without planning every step. Well, at least we are reasonably safe on the Globe (for the time being) The world seems in such a shambles (I wanna go home Mummy) Have a good safe day,Wendy.
Hope you are having a great Friday and have a nice weekend my friend. Its a warm day here. Its 85 already and not much of a breeze. I walked to the post office and got rather warm. But its nice in the house with the ceiling fan going. I moved my flower pots from the back yard to the front yard. The other night we got quite a bit of rain and it filled the pots full of water. I have tomatoes and cucumber seeds planted in them. I hope they will survive. Still have lots of water in the potting soil. I pored out as much as I could. We are supposed to get rain on Sunday, Monday and Wednesday. I did't think they needed anymore rain so I put them where they can still get sun but not any rain. Well take care my friend, Cheryl
The Lord has blessed us again. Our septic alarm went off at 4 pm yesterday and we called for them to come out this morning to check it. It only cost us a service call to repair a wire (not a new pump $$$).
Now we are getting on with our projects... which may include music and reading! So here is wishing a beautiful weekend for you and your family!
Have a good safe day,Wendy.
