Happy Hump Day!! And who's got a 3-4 day weekend for Memorial Day?

It's going to be near 90f here today too, with high humidity, then a thunderstorm they say...Then a big cool down for the weekend. Normally I'd say that sucks, but I'll be cleaning most likely.

I was going to finish spreading mulch today, but it's too hot already. A good day to de-stress instead, maybe a bike ride, etc. I got 3 girls outdoors yesterday, and need to find a few more spots!

Morning.


We were supposed to have thunderstorms yesterday but they never materialized.
That was some of the craziest weather and wind I've ever experienced. I got a call it was on its way and to be ready for it. At the time it was beautiful hot and sunny.......looked over the ridge and it looked like midnight was coming. So I huddled up all the potted plants and put all our starts under cover. Moved the tractor and atv in the shop. Figured since everything is safe I'd light up a joint and watch the front come over the ridge, sometimes that ridge holds storms back. Not yesterday........that wind crested over it and I watched this come at me....it was crazy.......like a freight train or avalanche of wind. Not windy but a flow of air for a straight minute or two! I thought oh fuck...and ran to the house. Leaves and branches where going horizontally across my yard! I got in closed all the windows and went back to the slider to watch. A few minutes later it stopped. So I looked where I was standing watching before I ran.....

Let's all agree you dodged it doing a backflip. I saw it! Glad you're safe. Wind is scary. It doesn't care.

Good morning chill people. Stay safe out there.

A good morning to all. Hopefully the last of the 40's was this morning. Plants need to go outside.

A few hours of errands to get done. Why do they call them holidays? I always get more work dumped on me.

And a kick in the pants to myself. Ordered new stove. Pulled back panel off mine yesterday for giggles. A connector locking tab dried out and broke off. Plugged it in and secured with electrical tape. Works perfect again. New stove was a desire and will look nice. But damn. 10 minutes of time and I could have avoided the purchase.

I hope all find the irony and humor that is in our days.
