THE DAY WENT SO DIFFERENT THAN I IMAGINED. That's alright. I needed a slow paced day with an afternoon NAP. Totally.
I just came inside from clipping some Irises for a Living room vase. I did get this done from my TO DO LIST before the storms beat the blossoms completely down for the year. I cannot find my nicer vases. Haven't a clue where they are, so I emptied a glass jar and recruited it to do the job. It's fine and looks alright. Cute. Looks like a barrel.
The entire time I was outside, the thunder in the distance was a constant rumble. Kind of daunting as I don't believe I've ever heard it rumble like this.
ALERTS and Warnings have been broadcasted that we're in a tornado watch until 9 or so. Violent storms approaching. I cannot but help think that with our government allowing chem-trails that it causes the intensity of tornadoes to develop. Just sayin'
The excuse that the chem-trails reflect sunlight to help cool global warming leads me to believe that this is one reason there are so many that have a Vitamin D Deficiency. Molesting nature has consequences.
PAUSE. OUR PHONE JUST RANG. Daughter called to tell us they saw a tornado west of town. Appreciate her so much. Yelled at my hubby and we gathered a few things to take to the cellar. As I reached the cellar door, HUBS called me to come back into the house as he was talking on the phone. Then we returned to the cellar later. Storms passing through. Sitting downstairs as I type. About to return to the upstairs. Waiting this out.
Made our way upstairs. Storm passed right on by. Turned on the TV onto YOUTUBE to watch OFF GRID WITH DOUG AND STACY. The program starts at 7 so I'll have to watch later.
Spent the evening watching movies and relaxing. More storms may come through the area in the middle of the night. Not happy about this so I probably will not sleep.
I need to go to the store and purchase some potting soil for the herbs and plants we purchased over the week-end. I think I have enough containers stashed behind the garage in the backyard for the plants.
MORE STORMS are blowing through.
Dear Lord, protect us.
