What's everybody doing today?

[old tex]

Well the day started off SUCKING! At 2am I woke up to what I thought was a crash. I thought that my S.F. might have fallen so I jump up to head into the next room. Got to about the middle of the foot of our bed & realized that it was thunder (& a lot more followed). So I turned to go back to bed & caught the board to our ramp (for the dogs) between my big toe & the next toe. Fell HARD on my knee & elbow & tore skin off of both & of course the toes weren't happy & bleeding. Went back to bed (wife didn't even wake up). Got up & realized that once AGAIN I hurt my right knee & right shoulder (that's my good shoulder). So I'm sore as all get out today. Then we had WIND kick up. They say there are gusts over 60mph & I believe it. I saved my plant sun shade (so far) with every clamp that I have. It's blowing so hard that the sun shade is actually loosening the stakes that it's attached to. In 30 minutes I need to go to the base & pick up my medications & I just saw that there is a dust storm on the way. Yippee skip what a day this is turning out to be.

Doc junk all morning, finished lunch at home, getting caught up on laundry. Probably going into our little town to gas up the truck and go to the amish grocery...strawberries from Florida arrived.

The wind is crazy @old tex! Power is out here, trees and branches down! The dust is thick, blocks the sun like it's cloudy!! Just got home a bit ago, need to go check on the donkey, he's hiding in his barn from the wind!!

I just came back from checking my sun screen. It's still there. I "thought" that the wind was over for about 30 seconds. Then it kicked up again. The funny part is that I have a lot of older trees in my yard. Yesterday I walked around & picked up sticks & branches from those trees so that our puppy wouldn't bring them in (& eat them). What a waste of time because I now have 20 times more sticks than I picked up.

Oh & my bird feeding for the winter has ended. The last of the food that I had out has "Gone With The Wind" & is probably in Arkansas now. In the end, from start to finish, I think that we put out somewhere around 1,250 lbs of bird seed.
