So what are you doing this lovely Wednesday? I am working half a day. But I still have time to play! We only had about 2/10" of rain yesterday before the sun finally came out.
But there is still plenty of water around to play in as you can see in this reflection. So come on over and play or just sit and relax. But along the way share your smile!
I ended up outside on the porch for several hours this morning. Why? Because it was raining lightly and raining and raining hard. Today will be about an inch of rain for us but my friends near me already have 2". I read, did FaceTime with a friend, and maybe took some videos of Hummingbirds and Cardinals. So I came in and downloaded between 74 and 102 pictures since June 1st to my computer. I am addicted!
It has been so very humid the last few days when the sun does come out for a bit. Our A/C has been on for well over a month. The latest news is that we are supposed to have at least 10+ days of no rain soon. The bad news is it will be in the 90's and above for most of that time. Well, from now until October probably.
So I am off to enjoy the rest of the rainy day and ask that you remind me in a few months of how much rain we have had now.
Before going to sleep every night, forgive everyone, and sleep with a good heart Here is to hoping that angels will guard you while you dream and the gentle breezes of the night will keep you cool. If it is too cold, may your blankets be warm as you drift on to a gentle rest.
Peaceful sleep sweer dreams as Angels watch over you
Guess what... our gauge had 1" of rain this morning. I got three beautiful videos of lightning in the clouds about 9:15 pm. While texting one of my friends last night, I said storms are all around us but looks like everything will miss us completely. At 11:30 pm I was outside again and got pictures of the stars shining bright above the storm clouds building all around us.
Around 3 am a small cell (not above that was at 11:30 pm) built up right next to us and came right over us when the bottom fell out and gave us our 1" in a very short period.
I keep emptying the trays under the potted plants but even them and my poor rose bushes (very few leaves) and other plants are not happy about the amount of rain they are getting right now, especially with the lack of sunshine. The sun is out but lots of cloud cover is around too. It has been months since the ground has dried out completely.
I grew up with 500 acres and cattle and we never complain about the rain and I'm not now. Because before we know it, we will be in a drought and people will have to hunt for hay to buy for the cows. So, I'm heading out with a smile to share with you on this beautiful and blessed Sunday.
Friday we got the yard mowed. Yes, there were ruts again in the same area of the yard. But then overnight we had 1/2" of rain in the gauge. My daughter-in-law, Evelyn, came to spend the night around 8:30 so we could drive about 45-60 minutes to Canton which is southeast of Fate. It is the world's largest flea market. Check out www.firstmondaycanton.com It is only open one weekend a month year round. Originally it was a great place to find bargins and unusual things. Now the prices are just as high as anywhere else. We bought a fruit cup for each when we first got there and ended with a corny dog. We brought nothing home! But we got our 10,000 steps in for the day and had a wonderful time! And now it is college regional baseball playoff time for my Longhorns! So I willl say,
what is left of it. Share your smile! I met two wonderful people today and we shared awesome conversations. There are so many wonderful people in this world.

Hope your Wednesday has been a fun filled day. We woke up to sunshine today for the first time in many weeks. There are times when the sun comes out in between the rain and there are days nothing but clouds. But today has been a blessing especially since there is a chance of rain in the forecast for many days to come.
I love hearing from you and I'll see you tomorrow rain or shine. Now I'm off to get a few more things done today if I can find my sunglasses.
