We're back. It's hot and VERY humid here... We're due to get some thundershowers today so if I go POOF y'all know why.

I loaded up on fresh veggies today, the crisper in the fridge is FULL to overflowing so I had to stack some of the stuff on the shelf above the drawer. That won't last long though, I'll have them gone within a few days! LOL

I'm here for the rest of the afternoon, depending on the weather. Now to get caught up again. Tongue

Afternoon.
I'm here but probably not for long. We have incoming weather -- YAY!! -- which will probably knock me off the satellite. I'll stick around as long as I can and be back as soon as possible.

Gotcha Penth! It's humid here too and we have incoming at some point later today.. Hopefully we won't go POOF at the same time..... LOL

I saw via the satellite (on our weather network) y'all are supposed to get thunderstorms today also... SO GLAD it's Hubby's DAY OFF so he can help keep Son calm if we lose the power or if I hear thunder (which means computer is SHUT DOWN and unplugged!)

The storms are getting closer and I'm starting to hear thunder way off in the distance. The line seems to be moving very slowly so when I go "poof" I'll be gone for a while.

Understood! We do not have anything happening here yet so hopefully it'll hold off in my area until you're able to make it back in.

Stay safe, all of you!!  Smiley

The storm seems to have fizzled but there is more behind it.

We're still getting lines of rain on and off alternating with sunshine here. No thunder yet but I'm REALLY keeping watch on things.

The cell phone was fully charged yesterday so we'll have a phone if things get wonky here.........

What was coming fizzled out but I can still hear thunder, faintly. Can't tell if it's "coming" or "going."

It's getting darker again.............. I'm thinking I may wind up closing the windows, depending on which way the wind is blowing during the next shower.

Hmmmm.........

I'm gonna go put some paint on that wardrobe door now that I'm at a good "stopping place" on Book 2. Be back in a bit.


Skywise and I checked out the door before he left and while it looks better, he doesn't think I'll be able to get it looking smooth due to what the core of the door is made of so I'm considering "sheathing" it with something that WILL stay smooth when painted. He thinks that I should use contact paper but I saw what happened when my mom went that route. No thanks. So the next step is to see what is available to "sheathe" with...

Slipped up to the Guest House while I could. It looks like Saturday's errands will include picking up a 2 x 4 sheet and 4 x 4 sheet of masonite, 1/8 inch if I can find it, 1/4 inch if I can't. Copius amounts of wood glue and wire brads should be sufficient to make it stick to the doors. I'll let you know how it goes.....

Since I didn't fall asleep until some time between 3:30 am and 4, I'm going to go sneak a nap while it's quiet. I'll be back when I wake up. If you have to take off, VE, don't worry. I always seem to know when to get back here -- even if I'm asleep!

Gotcha and give that black beauty of yours some cuddles for me please!

No thunder so far, I'm keeping my fingers crossed it stays AWAY until we're asleep and doesn't knock the power out.......

I'll be here for another hour and a half if the weather holds. We've been getting rain on and off, no thunder YET though.

I'm back. It's still raining --YAY!! -- but the thunder/lightning part of the program has moved out. We're on the backside of the stormline and once it moves through the rain will be over for tonight, most likely. No complaints though, we had a nice steady rain for over 3 hours although I don't know how much we got. I find that out tomorrow.

Everyone sleep well and be safe. Smiley Smiley
