I'm not holding my mouth right...

that's what mom would say if something I was doing didn't come out the first time through...
then she would give me a most intense face with her tongue out to the side...
and whatever I was doing, I would try again with that same face...
and it would work...
the ferns and other things are roasted...

and even after another evening of being completely surrounded by storms...
rained 5 miles north and 5 miles south...

we ended up with about 15 total minutes of sprinkles...
the wind blew and the thunder rolled in the distance...
we watched the lightening dance all around...

so maybe I'm not holding my mouth right...

we have been in a heat warning for so long and its going through at least until Sunday again...

it was 107 on the deck last night at supper time...

when it started darkening up, we went out to see if it was going to rain...

and 90 seemed so much cooler...

it was bearable...

the wind really blew for a change...

by midnight, I was ready for a sweater on that last walk...

LOL- it was in the 80s...

funny how you can get used to things...

like cold and heat...

it was 68 this morning out on the deck with 90% humidity...
that is changing already...
as the humidity drops, the temps will rise...
probably another 100+ day here...
you can bet the next time storms come through...
I'm doing that intense face...

the farmers are talking crop insurance...
yeppers, its that bad...
pray for all those still left without power today as the heat builds up again...
its sure not something I would want to be in...
and the ones who were in the line of the fires that wiped out so much...

and be careful tomorrow...
have a happy 4th...
