RAIN!!! Thankfully

It rained here Friday and part of Saturday.  The majority of the rain fell over a few hours on Friday.  I recorded 3 inches.  That was very much needed and the temps didn't even reach 80.  That was even more needed.  This should give my new tomato plants a kick start.  It seems there is an actual cold front on the way too.  Some time Wednesday or late Tuesday night we should get one here and it will get done into the low 60's.  I'm sure where Old NFO lives will be much cooler in the part of Texas he is in.  Fall is on it's way and is much much earlier than any before it seems.  That is bad news for the tomatoes.  

Son#2 has been battling with a restoration company that was sent out by his insurance to make repairs due to a water leak.  Not sure what leaked but he has holes in his ceiling and one wall where they removed the sheet rock.  That was over a month ago.  It seems that company and his insurance company can't communicate very well and have not been able to come to an agreement on how to proceed, until now.  So he has sat there with these giant holes in his ceiling that pumps hot attic air into the living area.  His AC almost can't keep up.  Anyway, they finally start with repairs this Tuesday.  No idea how long that will take, but we will help them out by taking the baby and the dog for the duration.  The dog would have to be cooped up in the hot garage for the time the workers are there.  He would try to eat them otherwise.  So the coming week has been planned for me.  Entertain the baby and tolerate the dog.  

We decided we would attend church assembly Sunday morning.  We did not go to class in order to spend less time with possible exposure and did not attend evening assembly either.  The funk I was in last week is not here as I write this.  It does my soul good.  Even though we have to cut very short any visiting we do.  We are usually one of the last to leave.  It's mostly me waiting on the Lady that lives with me doing her visiting.  Looking forward to things becoming more normal.

Happy Trails

Supposedly, 'supposedly' to get down in the 50s on Wednesday up here. We'll see. And seems like lots of folks are having 'issues' with insurance companies right now. 'They' sit in the A/C diddling around while your son and family sweat. NOT good, nor fair.
