Blessings upon Blessings to celebrate today. Yesterday afternoon, my son in Flower Mound (an hour away) called me on FaceTime.
They were getting really nice rain. It was only 70° and it rained for 30 minutes or more.
One by one the girls all gave up and ran back into the house. Nicole and the dogs were the last group to leave. Wayne and I talked for 20 minutes or so watching and listening to the rain, the lightning, and the loud thunder. He said it was the loudest he had ever heard. We even saw a fire truck go past.
He called me back on FaceTime and the house that caught fire was 10 houses down from him on the other side of the street. It looks like the windows all blew out and the 2nd story was very damaged. The lady & daughter were not injured and neighbors ordered pizza, but last night they got a bunch more rain which probably did more damage. So friends, count your Blessings!
It's another nice day here with a temp of 84 and sunny. It was that time of year when I had to get a mamo - fun time! Stopped to get Chick - A - Filet sandwiches for lunch for honey and myself. Haven't had one of them in a long time. Had a gift card for $10 so ended up paying on.y $3.02 for 2 sandwiches and large iced tea. Not bad huh? Hope you are having some good weather like we are - it's 83 and sunny. Hugs, Wendy
Good morning. When I went out this morning, I could see lightning in the distance, but no thunder. I did not check the weather forecast last night so I knew nothing. Some of the sky had stars, other parts were clouding up. I felt disaster was imminent so tried to alter the route as I went on. It eventually started to rain but nothing like Noah described. I eventually returned to the fortress with just minor dampness. As I stroke the keys of the computer, I hear the rain on the side of the house. When on my journey, it was 64* with a nice breeze. Going for 74* later. Maybe church in about 3 hours... maybe. Have a good day. Ciao for now and watch your wallet!
I pray you had as wonderful of a weekend as I did! The Texas Longhorns and the Cowboys both won. Today, I have already watered the backyard, 1000 steps, and fixed both of us a bacon, 2 eggs, tomato sandwich for brunch. But I want to share pictures from yesterday.
My grandson, Will, just woke up from a nap in this picture after a big meal at Saltgrass! Do you get sleepy after a big meal? Will is sitting in a chair and I am standing next to him.
In this picture, you can tell that he is 6'6" or so. Wendy is 6' and Bill is almost that tall. So you can imagine how he has to bend in half to give me a hug!
A very blessed day was had by all 5 of us. Wendy & I ran a few errands and then the guys met us at SaltGrass. Then Wendy and I sat on the patio for a couple of hours watching hummingbirds and talking while Rbt and Bill watched the Cowboy game as Will took a nap.
My goodness it is hard to say goodbye! Not only do they now live 2 hours away from us but with both being real estate agents, their life is non stop busy. Wendy's phone also rings constantly with people needing holistic consultations. I miss them so very much, FaceTime just isn't a real HUG!
