We had over and inch of rain yesterday with a beautiful 30 minute Texas rain storm. It was a warm front moving up from South Texas. Needless to say, the grass was a little more than wet and the girls weren't interested in going out.
When we get lots of rain, especially when the ground is already soaked, we have a river that runs through the entire back yard. Then around 6:30 am this morning, we had a cool front come through moving at 55 mph. It only took 10 minutes to get another .8" of rain. It was magnificent with lots of lightning (which I love). BUT, guess what...
The SUN is shining for the first time in about 5 days and that is a very long time for us in Texas. So here is to a Blessed week for all of us!
I have lost count of how long it has been since we have seen the sun. Not much measurable rain; maybe 1/2" rain in 4 days or so. But I NEED sun and sunshine. We have a chance for sun on Monday or Tuesday, that's it for the next 10 days. So I just go to my pictures that are bright and cheerful.
I can't wait for my lemons to finish ripening. Nothing as good as fresh lemonade. So here is to Friday. Hope your weekend is full of Blessings!
hi there, how's your week been going? it's a beautiful day here, but really cold. but i'm glad the sun is shinning. hope your day is happy and peaceful..hugs..marykay
Happy Monday, Pam:) May your new week get done everything you want, and time left over for fun stuff:) Hope your weather is not too hot yet. Be safe, you two, always. *hugs 'n headbonks*...
Such a beautiful picture this is and that is what it looks like here with the braches on the trees full of ice and snow. Breathtaking site! Sounds like some more snow coming our way for Sunday. MY how I love the winter days as this season shows off its beauty. May you have a pleasant weekend. Smiles Gloria
Yesterday was a bad hair day. We had winds between 40 & 50 mph. It was one of those days where you could hardly get the car door open and then it would try to blow off the hinges. As I was getting in with my hair blowing every direction and shutting the car door, my hair got caught in the door. I had to get the door open again and get my hair out in order to move my head without loosing a lot of hair. Ok, just a strand or two. Gotta love Texas weather. Today is calmer with some sun and even though the rain is coming next week, we should have highs in low 50's to mid 60's for the next 10 days. So, if you don't like your weather come on over for a visit and we will sit on the back porch with blue skies and let all our worries drift with the clouds as we watch the birds fly by.
good morning! hope you had a nice week...we are getting more snow here...2 to 4 inches...i don't have to go anywhere so going to enjoy it..have a lovely friday...much love marykay
This is what it looked like here this morning but after a few hours it started to melt. That's the only snow I like, the kind that comes and goes quickly! lol
Nothing but cold rain today and "they" say it is going to turn over to snow! We do not handle snow to well in Alabama. Staying in and staying warm. Hope your day is being nice for you. Enjoy what ever you do today and stay safe.
May your day be ever so nice to you. Up north the sun is shinning and the snow is glistening.
I do believe I will make up a cup of caramel vanilla cream flavored coffee from green mountain to make my moments even more brighter. May you have a joy in your heart as you do your daily duties and I will do the same. Smiles Gloria
