Hello friends, we are still waiting on rain here and needing it desperately.
There are fires burning in my county and neighboring counties. They are
using helicopters to scoop up water from lakes and ponds to put on the
fires. Have a good Thursday
Hi Darlene! ...my home town Mineral Wells, TX got hit hard by the tornado yesterday, we were under a tornado warning twice, (I'm ub Weatherford, by that same system, but the tornado was quick and didn't travel very far. My younger brother lives in a trailer in MW, but not in the area that got hit...thank goodness! They showed the destruction on the CBS national news this morning. The man that was a supervisor at the Ventamatic plant that got destroyed, called all his 2nd shift people and told them not to come to work that afternoon, due to the bad weather watch...he saved all those people by doing that. He stayed to lock down what he could, and left, 20 minutes after that, the tornado hit there..it had traveled across the Holiday Hills subdivision, tore up a bunch of houses there, (mostly the 2 stories homes) then to Wolters Industrial complex where the Ventamatic plant is and a lot of warehouses, then it traveled down Hwy 180 and hit the little town of Cool, Tx..but only 2 people in the houses got badly hurt, lots of low key type of injuries, and no deaths...so that's really good! The tornado was headed toward us, but played out right after it hit Cool, thank goodness!
I tend to have a need to walk outside barefoot from time to time, I didn't know there was a name for it, "grounding" ...I do know that I feel it deep inside when I have walked barefoot on the earth and so much better..(not inside my house though) do you have something you do to help you feel "grounded"?
Hi Darlene. Sitting here this afternoon on the lounge chair with Muffy squeezed in beside me. He insists on doing that even tho’ his chair is next to mine with much more room. Such a clingy little fellow. It’s semi overcast but quite humid again. I went to the Probus Club Group this morning (Probus Club members meet monthly, to enjoy the company of like-minded fellow retirees and listen to interesting guest speakers. Make new friends,etc.). Caught up with friends. And back home by12.30. Also went to the Scrabble group yesterday afternoon and won both games which was surprising as I had shocking letters to deal with. Scrabble is weekly whereas Probus is monthly.
I called into the Garden Nursery on my way home and bought a weather Station that measures rain, temps, direction of wind. Now all I have to do is assemble it. It shouldn’t be too difficult. Also got some Anemone and Ranuculi bulbs and double daffodil bulbs. I’ll need to soak the ground before I plant them as its quite dry. That will make a nice splash of colour in spring.
Is your weather still cool. Well, I best go make some supper and feed Muffy. Hugs
Hi Darlene , It would be nice if Summer did decide to order a set of them .

It sure turned out to be a crummy day as i had intentions to d start painting my garage . It was supposed to of started raining later on in the afternoon but it came down earlier than expected.
.So i will start tomorrow.
I rodded the bathtub instead today got the water going down much faster
I just realized I've been a member of My Boomer Place one year yesterday....I am so grateful to be here, making new online friends, and being with old ones from the other place...Thank you for your friendship! Thank you My Boomer Place for all the fun I've had over the past year!
Hello Melinda. Can't say I've ever been to a coffee house. I don't drink coffee in any form. I have eated a loaded baked potato before. That's a potato that is a meal by itself with all the add-ons to it. Have a lovely Sunday. We are hoping for rain that is in the forecast.
It's raining here, finally..we dropped from 90 down to 78 fairly quickly..around 6 pm. Prob won't have a lot of accumulation, but it's a welcome sight.
I finally got me a set of 3 lb hand weights and a few resistance bands today Darlene! I am planning on starting to use them tomorrow, or maybe Monday...LOL! I hope you enjoy the weekend, my friend!
Hi Darlene. Yes, I like this layout and will save it for future use. Keep trying to come up with different coloue schemes and ideas. It's been a busy week so not here very much. Love the rose on your page. Guess they are breaking out in flower your way soon. Will catch up later. ~Hugs~
We had a good trip to the Amish store. They did have cured ham and bacon, we bought one pack of bacon. Got butter, jellies (no sugar), bread & butter pickles, vidalia onion relish, and h7bby got a small container of honey. The store was packed..lots of people there..a small parking lot. Next time, I hope we can go in a weekday. We came straight home afterwards. Yes, I opened up your email. But trying to stay away from political stuff.
