Something About Nothing............ #14

[Lynne G]

Dinner was lush, and found out 3 people died from a falling tree in our county. Many without power, downed trees blocking roads. And there are very loudly bowling in the sky once more this evening. Another round to be in the overnight too. Sigh.

I was just very anxious little one was driving home in that afternoon storm, and she told me a large branch hit the car as she was passing through an intersection. Thankfully, it mostly hit the front windshield and did not break the glass nor dent the car. I think my little one has driven through at least three raining times where even the fast wipers are not enough. A funny, she said that she knew it was dark out, as the car turned on the lights for her. She also said she saw wires spark from breaking, and all red lights were out the closer she got to our home. We heard fire whistles and saw fire trucks all afternoon. Clocked winds this afternoon in my neighborhood, 78 mph with 86 mph gusts.

Phone just flashed a severe weather warning to expire in the next hour. Yeah, I think it is just about past now.

Hope all homies are safe, healthy and happy this Wednesday is over soon enough.

I’m glad your daughter made it home safely!

Oh my you all have been so busy. We have had great weather here so we decided to redo the front yard again so I am way behind here.. Hot and humid weather this weekend so I will have plenty of time to catch up. Hope you all are having a great week.

Good evening all!

So we made it to June! 2 more weeks of school left!

Picked up Chris's things at school today, next week I go get Lucas's things. Then I get to go in and clean up my classroom. Going to be super weird that we didn't have a traditional finish and especially leaving and not knowing what September will bring.

Things have also been intense around my town for the past two days. Two peaceful protests were taking place and some people in my town were so rude and disrespectful towards them. Now we have been on the local news and Twitter because of a few bad apples.

2020 has to start getting better!

 

[macraven]

One more week Kfish and you’ll be done with the school year!

Have any adventures planned for this summer?

The latest puzzle. This one was dh's choice.

A little distracted here in the Twin Cities Suburbs and 3 of our company offices affected and on destroyed. Needed humor to follow...

Agavegirl .... that is really sad news about 3 of your company offices.
Crazy behavior needs to stop.

I still say that this is what Dumbledore had to drink when they were after the locket.

Charade
You are up late
Does this mean you are joining the night crew here?

It’s now Thursday and you are officially a night owl!

 

[Charade67]

I'm usually a night owl. I really should be sleeping though.

How awful for those people Lynne. Nasty for the emergency services too to deal with. Your weather sounds dreadful and yes, glad your daughter made it home safely. It`s horrible driving in those conditions.

Oh my you all have been so busy. We have had great weather here so we decided to redo the front yard again so I am way behind here.. Hot and humid weather this weekend so I will have plenty of time to catch up. Hope you all are having a great week.

Hey Vicki.....good to see you. Hope things are good with you and glad you have lovely weather.....always helps!!!

It has to get better!!! Such a shame a few rotten apples spoiled the peaceful protests. It`s always the same.

You`ll be so looking forward to your time off soon......

How dreadful! Hoping things get back to some kind of normality soon. Hope you`re doing ok though......





And another very cool day ahead. High of 54F today

I always have very weird and vivid dreams, every night not just occasionally, but woke up at 4.30 and recounted every bit of this one to a rather bemused Tom immediately before I forgot a lot of it........poor guy. He said even for me that was a way out there dream!! Couldn't get back to sleep though....will be an early night tonight.

Grocery pick up today......a bit like Groundhog Day this one. We did think about going for a drive this afternoon, but with heavy rain forecast, that doesn't sound much fun.

Certainly no plans to go to any open stores.....especially IKEA where they had a three hour line to get in the other day!!! Three hours....for IKEA...….not for us.

But, it`s Thursday...…..almost the end of the working week for those that do...….and hope it passes quickly!

Happy Thursday

Sad to hear of some people, Kfish, but yay for the end of school for the family. Time to relax soon enough. So cute, my DB said my youngest niece will be a first grader this fall, as she finishes school next week too. Time flies. Cannot even believe it’s June already.

Agavegirl, so sad about your offices, and enjoy seeing your funnies.

I hope all remain peaceful, destruction and criminal behavior only makes you no better a person, and eventually destroys a community.

A Thursday is upon us, and woot! Will make the end of the work week for me. Decided a longer weekend is needed. Moving slower tomorrow morning is a nice thing to look forward to.

And that low weather system pumping in the tropical heat and storms, stays around for another day. Hence we will be around 90F with later in the day roll your dice storm chances. Ah, you know it’s hot, even with the two rain times I heard in the overnight, did not lower the heat enough as the AC was heard going on at times also in the overnight.

Thus, you know, it’s the day of the week, we enjoy our favorite beverages as Thirsty Thursday it is.



Ah, while I won’t be found at the Anchor Bar, you will find me with a cup of tea in my hand.

Good Morning homies!

Morning everyone! Hope you are all staying safe out there. Have a wonderful Friday Eve!
