Weather-my silly one!

10 years ago

I hope everyone is faring well and are not affected by this particular storm system (OK was hit, but don't know how close it was to Moni and AR was hit, but I don't know who is from there), hopefully everyone can report in. We're keeping an eye on it here (TN). I just got a text from my son and he made a joke. Took away the anxiety a bit. Severe thunderstorm is going on, but he's at the bus depot downtown, which is underground. He's not particularly tall yet. His message said, "Good thing I made it here and I'm underground. Better yet, I'm not the highest point, even when I am outside!".

Thinking of everyone. Stay safe!

Yeah, we're getting the next wave now. Heavy rain and some winds.

Everyone stay safe.

Rob, your son has a sense of humor that I like. Made me chuckle. He must be a comfort to you. Lowering the level of anxiety with humour is good. I have a daughter who makes us laugh and I am inclined to pass it forward when I can. good luck to all.

LOL Medo mine is just a lil bitty one, its 4 shelves with a raincoat that zips over it but it is holding now more than 100 cups of seedlings plus 5 trays of peat pots and the bottom shelf is still empty. It works for me but then too I have the pool table in the barn that I have more seedlings on (well on plywood over the pooltable) Bunny if I were there I'd go with ya to ask them. That sounds like a great thing! Im excited for you about ya'lls plans for your greenhouse!! Becki, I have been checking into farmers markets around here and they really don't have them close to here (closest one is 30 minutes away and then there is one every Thursday in Needville that is about 45 mins away but sounds like a good one, I am going to go there and look around this Thurs.) I also am finding out about a roadside stand to see if the outskirts of Katy allows that, things are so weird around here but if they do then I am going to do that if my cukes, squash,tomatoes and other veggies go good. (ohhh I hope they do just to show fox that gardening doesn't only burn calories but also produces dollars!) I have all the stuff for both a roadside stand and a booth at the farmers market from my woodworking and crafts booth. I think fox is happy that I have been getting back involved in living again. He and I were talking this evening about my plans for my gardening and also my woodworking/painting/crafts, he was very encouraging about everything I talked about. Thanks ya'll :) Pixie

Of course I would encourage you to stop smoking. But have you ever tried a saline nasal rinse? I make my own, since I hate tasting the preservatives in the otc ones. Mix 1 cup boiled, cooled water with 1/4 tsp baking soda and 1/4 tsp salt (without additives). I actually use the spray bottle from the otc stuff, since its easy to use. Try spraying your nostrils 4-5 times a day, and see if it feels better. Change the solution every week or so, but clean out the bottle with a little bleach water. Good luck.

I was in the hospital because of my silly gallbladder!
Q
Comments (18)
I am sorry to hear you were in the hospital. I haven't had a gall bladder attack yet but I have heard they are painful. My Mom could never explain to me what was wrong with her other than to say she felt funny now and then. I took her to the Doctor and it turned out she had 6 gallstones. They can be dangerous if they move into the ducts and cause a blockage. My Mom had her gallbladder out by laproscopy and she was fine after with no problems. I have a friend who had his removed and he can't eat pork of any kind. Goes right through him. LOL Hope you don't have any more attacks before you get your gallbladder removed. Anne

glad you all enjoyed the pics. :) flyingflower, pea is a great dane with natural ears. probably poorly bred, not the greatest example of a dane but her personality more than makes up for what she lacks in breed standard! since both of my girls are from rescue, i don't know their history. i just know they are as sweet as the day is long. :)

The rest of the surrounding counties are letting school out early, but not ours? So I am justfied in being bit anxious, but he's got a good head on his shoulders, so I shouldn't worry. And I don't mostly :) I sure will be glad to have him in my arms again. Won't be soon enough.

Rob, I thought of you as I listened to the noon news. Looks like you are in for some heavy rain, storms and tornado watches. Be careful and if you feel like it, bring the boy home from school.

Stay safe everyone!

The Storm is supposed to start here around 4pm. Schools let out at 1pm CST. So far they have issued flash flood watches for the usual areas, as we had a lot of rain yesterday. I predict we will be under a tornado watch at some point. I live just outside Birmingham.

We are under a tornado warning until 10:45, but it will probably be extended and headed our way...

Thinking of you, Glenda and others. Take cover. We were under the bulls eye yesterday (AR). We were fortunate in our area, but others in nearby areas were not with lives lost and entire areas devastated.

Be careful and stay in your safe place. It looks like there are more cells still to your west so stay vigilant even after the current warnings pass.

I was right they have extend the tornado warning until 11:45 CST. One of the areas hit was a community called Kimberly, and its Fire Station was flattened.

I hope Glenda is still awake because the storms are headed her way, then on to my way.

The tornado sirens are going off again....

Stay safe. Last night most of the AR damage was early evening but we remained under a watch until 6:00 am and did have a significant storm around 3:00 am. Just a severe t storm, some trees down about 10 miles to the south. Very close to where DH used to own some timberland. Very glad he sold that! He invested it into a rental upscale duplex in Colorado, which not only can be insured against loss (as a practical matter you can't Insure timber)

Do you have Glenda's number? You might want to call and give her a heads up.

We just kept watching Lincoln county. It was OBVIOUS there was tornado, even if you were just watching the radar. Two people died.

I hope everyone reports in.

My report: We didn't even get any of the wind weather, just lots of rain. No flooding in our area. We're good. Hope everyone else is! I have cousins in Athens, AL and I'm waiting to hear from them.
