I keep hoping to sneeze to blow the funk out. LOL! There’s tickling but not enough to crank up a sneeze yet. I just keep blowing my nose to try to get it out that way.
I had to pour several drops of eye drops into my eyes to clear them out and that helped them a little. They were burning.
I’ve thrown some of the body powders and bars of soap into a bag of burnable stuff. It’ll make the smoke stink when Hubby burns it. Gotta share the “fun”. LOL! It’s what he gets for not helping clean the stuff out of the house.
I saw the radar a couple of minutes ago and cussed a little when I saw you were being missed by that big batch. Not fair! With luck, you’ll get something the next day or two.
We’ll get wet Thursday and maybe Friday. Glad it isn’t with another strong cold front that will give us storms.
I knew you’d had him on the leash a few times lately but didn’t know if you still needed to do that. He HAS been rather naughty, running off. Sure don’t want him getting in trouble or getting hurt.
The radar does look a bit ugly over that way. Good to see there are no severe storms or tornados this time around. Just a lot of wet.
I guess that’s the system that will come through here later in the week.
I hope the plumber shows up early. No fun having a toilet that doesn’t work.
You get all the wet and we get all the dry. I guess that’s why you have gardenias and we have prickly pear. LOL!
Atta girl....sharing is a wonderful thing in a marriage. heh heh. So is karma good for the soul. ;)
Guess I’d better head out. I’m getting sleepy now. It is kinda late.
We got some of the wet at the wrong time. The guys never did get to turn the dead rye under to fertilize this year. For some reason, they planted the corn at the same time they sprayed the rye with the intention of coming back to do that before the corn sprouted. But it rained and they never got to, and now the corn is about 3 inches tall. It’ll grow but won’t have the benefit of fertilizer this year unless he comes through with something to spray. He prefers not to.
Some things just beg to be shared. LOL! I’ve shared plenty of that Avon with him already and can’t help but giggle when he grumbles about it. Got him this afternoon when he burned the stuff I’d piled up last week. The wind always shifts suddenly and blows the smoke towards him. It’s workin’ with me. :-)
It’s very late for you1 I’m surprised you were up this late.
Sleep well and wake up to some rain. Wouldn’t that be nice?
Good morning du ((HUGS))
You are so right in doing it that way.
The older crowd are famous for tucking money away around their home.
Before a great-uncle died, he told his wife to not throw anything out without going through his stuff; he had money tucked inside pages of books and magazines.
Good morning, Everyone.
Good morning to our
Military, our Allies, and their families.
Thank you, Lauren, for preparing the
Canteen for todays activities.
Road Trip!
A quick drive-by post because this is the only way
I'll ever get to visit Hawaii. LOL
Y'all have a wonderful day.
Grab a cup of joe or tasty tea.
Chat with the military and/or the family they left behind.
The FR Canteen is
Come on in and sit for a while.
There's always plenty of coffee, tea,
pancakes, conversation,
silliness,
and plain old BS

Spent two weeks at this Army camp in 1978 when I was stationed with the USMC out of Kaneohe Air Station.
Yes, it sometimes snows at the top of Mauna Kea, and one time drove a jeep to the top of the mountain to see the astronomical observatories. The summit is known to have one of the clearest view of the heavens, and by the looks of this picture, it's attracted many more observatories than the few I saw in '78.
At the Army camp, I distinctly remember walking around the camp at night where it was pitch black and the stars were so incredibly sharp in the night.
Every few seconds you could see meteorites flaming out in the atmosphere under such clear, pitch-black conditions. It was spectacular.
Then on the way home, the helicopter flew over the scenic east side of the Big Island. Your felt as it God himself came down to etched these beautiful cliffs and waterfalls with his own hands.
A beautiful state from its shores to its peaks.
The lack of an apple tree is, perhaps, the only reason this is not seen as our Garden of Eden.
Good Morning, Beachie!
((((HUGS))))
Thanks VK. Ah, but fresh papaya with a squeeze of lemon on the half shell is to die for!
Howdy, beachie.
LOL! Books and magazines are where we HAVEN’T found anything. And she has a gazillion of them throughout the house. Most are gone now but there are still a lot to go through.
She tucked it in odd things. There were two compasses in their little boxes and one box had a piece of paper folded up inside. I found a $20 bill when I unfolded that little piece of paper. Another box that looked like it was for a necklace had wheat pennies in it. Little stuff like that.
no million dollars discoveries yet. LOL! But there’s still a LOT to go through. I’m one against 100 years or more of hoarding. (8-0
Some of it is “How cool!” and other stuff is “WHY?”
I hope you’re enjoying beautiful Spring weather like we are.
Well drat! I’d hoped you’d get some rain.
Maybe the stuff building up over NM and AZ will move over your way.
It has been sprinkling a bit. We’ll see what happens in the next few hours. Hubby just mowed [your hubby’s favorite job. LOL!] and now would be a perfect time for it to just pour!
Update: it’s raining hard now with lots of thunder. Sounds wonderful to listen to. I’m not sure the kitties are very happy right now. I’d bring them all inside if I didn’t think it would be bedlam! LOL!
Glad you got some rain tonight!
It’s been mighty nice all right. There were a couple of tornado warnings south of us, but I think they’ve now expired. Of course, there were no tornado chasers out here. LOL!
I checked the radar earlier when I saw you’d had some rain and there was a severe storm warning box showing south of you. That storm still has the box around it as it moves east, but I haven’t seen tornado warnings pop up. That’s good news for folks in the path of the storms.
I’m glad the nasty stuff missed y’all and just gave you rain, even if the kittehs might not have appreciated it. LOL
I haven’t seen hide nor hair of them so I imagine they are in their dry spots. I’m glad I fed them a bit early tonight so they didn’t have to go into hiding when hungry.
It’s been a nice long rain. Hubby is checking the gauge.......aaaaaand the answer is.....we have 8/10ths of an inch and the rain has stopped for now.
Good that you fed them before the rain moved in! It would have been a long, miserable night for them.
You got a NICE amount of rain tonight. Is there any more in the forecast this week?
