Hope you all have a terrific Tuesday!
*HUGS*
Howdy, lauren. *HUGZ*
Everything in good shape in your neck o’ da woods after the storms Saturday? It looked pretty ugly on the radar and there was a tornado warning.
Hope nothing big pops up to hit. The radar shows everything east of you at the moment.

Saturday night was pretty bad indeed. My patio cover that is securely tied onto the patio fence got lifted off the ground and away from the fence. Lightning was intense. The two tornados that hit west of here were only about 10-15 miles away.
Tornado sirens went off in my neighborhood a couple of times. YIKES!
A few more days of wacky and unstable weather this week. Today was a record high temp here, if felt like 90 degrees at 9:00 this morning.
This is the time of year we get it all before it calms down into summer.
My cat is sitting out on the patio in his cat condo, I had best go retrieve him before anything comes up!
Our temps are going to climb into the high 70's to 80's this week, Spring is here!
Nighty-night! Hope all the bad stuff misses y’all.
You have a Terrific Tuesday, too...and don’t work too hard!
Ooooo...you have a cat now? That’s very cool. Pictures? 😻
It looked awful the other night and was hoping you weren’t being slammed too hard. Even without tornados, those storms can have hellacious winds and it sounds like you got a good dose of that. Glad the tornados passed you by.
Gotta say I’m a bit jealous of the “light shows” though. LOL It’s been way too long since we had any here.
We’re supposed to have some wild weather here this week, too, but we’ll see how that goes. It’s so dry, it drains the energy from the rain systems that come through and we’re lucky to get a drop or two by the time they reach this end of the state.
Looks good for you for the rest of the night. It’s all to the east of Dallas now. Your kitty can enjoy his kitty condo safely. >^..^<
There you are. Hope you and your son had a good time last night. Wearing out your Ms Pac-Man? :-)
Nice temps! Feels good, doesn’t it? We have pretty much the same in store for this week and with a lot of luck, some rain with it. We’re in severe drought now and getting close to extreme. We’ll see what it says when the new map is posted Thursday.
Howdy, luvie.
Were you able to keep your feet warm this afternoon so you could get a decent nap? :-)
Hi Everybody!
(((HUGS)))
Hey there, radu!
I sure was! I slept for almost 3 hours. LOL! I feel much more alert now than I did last night, that’s for sure.
How was your day? I pulled up the Tullahoma cam, and man was it still windy there. Were you able to mow or any other outside activity or was it better staying indoors?
I would HOPE you’re more alert tonight after a nap that long. LOL
It sure WAS windy this afternoon. It’s a good thing we decided to take the tent down Friday and pass on the last couple of days of early voting. It wouldn’t have stayed up in the wind today. Unlike last week, the wind didn’t die down when the sun set. It’s still whipping ahead of the front coming through tonight.
No mowing today. I had errands to run in Tullahoma.
I went out to feed the kitties, and sat with them for a bit. It was sooo quiet out there, it was almost....almost...like I was in the country. The only two things I heard were one dog down the alley and motorcycles way off on a big main street.. It was actually so nice. Oh, and I heard the silly rooster that someone in the next block has. LOL!
Sorry about the wind. It was really making all the metal seen on the cam clank together. Sorry you had to go shopping in it. Are you as eager for the cool-down as I am? One more day...tomorrow...of 90s. WoooHooo!!
