We had a beautiful Friday evening! Wendy and I sat on the patio watching hummingbirds and cardinals and small birds galore. We listened to the guys talking inside and their laughter. Then they came back over Saturday and we met them for Mexican food and another visit full of smiles and laughter. We got some light rain on and off but Austin and Central Texas got very heavy rains.
This morning we had a bit of sunshine while East Texas was getting the heavy rain. But now we are cloudy and dreary again even though it doesn't show clouds in our area and there is still some blue peeking through.
I'm off to the patio for a bit to smell the flowers and then to watch some college baseball today from Austin since it got rained out yesterday.
Friday is almost over and so is May! We had another 7/10" of rain today. So are you ready for the Pilgrims???
You know.. Mayflower? I have company coming in an hour so guess I had better get the house picked up a little.
Don't forget to share your smile, even in the rain! There are so many hail damage claims that have been filed already. And some are still repairing their house from the freeze and broken pipes.
There are no words to tell you how blessed we are today and everyday. The rain bombarded us at 3 am and we ended up with 2" total. But north of Fort Worth (Keller, Saginaw and other areas) had very large hail.
And it did lots of damage. The news showed areas like hotels, apartments, and car rentals where almost every car in the parking lots had the back windows totally shattered or lots of holes in them.
We had lots of thunder and lightning but no damaging winds or hail. And even though we had 2" of rain, we were on the edge of the storm as an area near Waxahachie reported 7" from last night.
I am so very thankful that all the plants I put out in the yard didn't get beat up, but seem to be thriving. Praying that those of you who needed rain got it and none of you had damage from storms.
GOT A COUPLE MORE MYSTERIES FROM THE LIBRARY TODAY, HAD MY HAIR DONE AND GROCERY SHOPPED. AM POOPED OUT NOW. A RELAXING EVENING FOR ME COMING UP BIG HUGS NANCY. MOE
Now it is afternoon already. Where does the time go? Who stole it ?
Yesterday I got some new plants and some seeds put in pots. Also got them all around our yard in places. Now I need your help identifying a bird that I got a picture of in our yard.
So now that I have wasted your time, you are probably wondering where the day has gone. Guess I had better go find my umbrella because we are due rain and storms for the next day or two.
I hope you have a smile on your face and that you share that smile with others today. Blessings & Hugs are headed your way and I am
Here we are into another week, Tuesday already. I paid a few bills... UGH! Hubby is mowing because tonight, Wednesday, and Thursday is a chance of up to 3-4" of rain. Our backyard creek is just now dry enough to mow today.
Sun, clouds and rain are competing for our attention. And the pink moon was beautiful last night. We all had to catch it in between the clouds moving in and out.
So when you have time stop by and leave me a note and know that I am sending your Blessings & Hugs!
My how time flies even when you are retired. Where did the weekend go? We ended up with an inch of rain on Friday afternoon and evening. Saturday, we spent about 4 hours moving and planting plants. That afternoon we watched sports. Sunday we watched our Church services then enjoyed sitting on the patio and watching hummingbirds, squirrels, and lots of other birds. Even saw a big Blue Jay several times. Hubby got almost all the glue off my incision too. So it feels much better as I wait for more of the feeling to come back.
So thanks for being such a faithful friend and stopping by! It always means so much to me!
