Sunny, breezy, temperature of 84 degrees at 2:05 p.m. We had a good downpour complete with thunder and lightening yesterday so things are still well soaked. Today looks rain-free so far. I am so thankful that we got the rains the past four days, maybe more, as the grass it starting to look green again. Just a few brown spots. I think we will have to do some replanting of the lawn after a bit, but right now, it is good. I was pleased to see that the heavy downpour didn’t harm the flowers.
Today has been a quiet day. I have done a lot of small jobs that I kept putting off. I have halfway filled the shredder so that is a big accomplishment. This afternoon, when Tina gets home from work we are going to run errands and grab a bite to eat. Tomorrow we plan on staying home, but that seldom holds true. Sunday is church and then it is Monday. The weekend goes fast.
I can’t believe how quiet it is out here today. No lawn mowers going, no one walking, no action at all. I guess the dogs got walked early this morning so maybe will see them later on this evening. But the birds are napping as is the squirrels and the chipmunk. I believe the up coming days will be a bit cooler and they will be out more, I hope. Sierra gave up her visual, watching for all her friends, sitting in front of the door and has gone for an afternoon nap.
The weekend will bring a big Major League baseball game to Bristol Motor Speedway. The games is between the Atlanta Braves and the Cincinnati Reds. The fans are going crazy and the surrounding businesses are gearing up for the big crowds. We won’t be among them. But it is exciting to have such a big event here in East Tennessee. We can watch it on TV, and be comfortable.
