It's another 90 degree day here - watered the floweer garden - everything is slowly fading away. Hope you've had a good week so far and enjoy this mid week day. Haven't had rain in several days now so am watering the plants every couple of days. Stay well and have a good evening.
Everything quieted down yesterday and we got all our errands completed. In WalMart, as we come to the end of an aisle, we always look both directions to make sure someone is not going to run over us as we venture out. Yesterday, after looking right and seeing someone in a glittery, very bright teal sparkle tank top, I quickly looked the other direction. Someone yelled, "PAM!" I thought, Oh No! She was the daughter of one of my best friends from South Texas. We began visiting in the middle of the store and another lady (neither of us knew) joined us. She overheard us talking about the Fire in Fate. I was sharing the pictures of the Fire, then my friend shared pictures of her dog, and our new "friend" also shared her dog pictures. You never know where a smile and kind words will lead you but it warms your heart.
I hope you will share your smile today and you just might meet someone new too!
Good afternoon my friend. I hope you are doing good. I'm kind of tired. I did take a nap but it must be the heat and the humidity that is making me tired. Its 90* and feels like 91*. It was in the 70's when I left to go to Walmart this morning. It felt good but didn't stay there for long. I need to do some dusting but I think I will do it tomorrow morning. Just don't have the want to do it today. Are you ready for Fall? I know I am. We had a few days last week that felt like Fall, of course the hubby thought it was cold. lol Well take care my friend and enjoy the rest of your day. Hugs, Cheryl
This started around 5:30 am this Tuesday morning about 2 miles from our house. It was an apartment complex under construction. Just the framework was up and pallets of wood all around.
It is just off the I-30 exit and could be seen from many miles away. Of course you could not get out of our neighborhood because streets were blocked off. Also the interstate was backed up for many miles because of "onlookers".
We are so blessed that no one was injured that we know of right now. All that fresh lumber was a very hot fire and Fire Departments from all around joined in to help. Thank you!
I was watching a video of it and you could see the apartment structure collapsing as it moved through the building. After 3 hours or so the fire is contained and hopefully completely out now.
Not sure if we will be able to get to town today or not (Taco Salad Tuesday from Rosa's, you know). Right now we are just counting our blessings and sharing them with you.
We did not get a shower to come across and help put out the fire, but we were sure blessed with no wind to spread the fire either. Blessings upon Blessings!
