It was a good week..

  but still no rain. It's supposed to rain (big whooping 50% chance)today. I'm sure hoping and praying for it. The whole state needs it so badly. Actually most of the entire mid-west needs it. Crops and animals etc. ....prices are high enough as it is and now with this, they will only go higher. What will people do then? Everyone lives pay check to paycheck now. I know, blah, blah, blah....
  Well it's been hours since I started this and we got a big whoppin' 1/10th of an inch of rain and heard thunder about 3 times shortly after noon. I'm grateful but sure could have used a little more.
 Yesterday I went to Susie's to pick up a plant and "spotted" for her while she worked Rocky for a while. He's a big ole handsome fella. A far cry from the mousy little thing he was a few years back.

 He's not been worked in over a year. Like my bunch. There's just so much health that goes so far and regular life gets in the way. You know, like cooking, cleaning and laundry. When that's all you can muster up that's all you can muster up..... in her case, throw in some thyroid cancer and breast cancer scare that is not over yet...






Been both a diamond and a stone day.....later
