Outside My Window ~ 8.26.2012
Outside my window…at 5:45 this evening it is pouring rain, thunder and lightening…..for the last hour. We are currently at 75°F with a flood advisory until 7:00 this evening….and a pollen alert? Seriously….pollen? The rain is forecast to stop around 8:00 this evening. There is a section of my street that is already flooding again. Yesterday morning we received three inches of hard rain in three hours and it flood a good deal of our region. When I last checked early yesterday we had received 3.54 inches of rain….I don’t know what the final tally was for my area, let’s just say I have two very full rain barrels. …

Being Still
I sent out an email to family and friends recently and told them I was “amazed that it is already August…this year has just flown by as far as I’m concerned. It makes me almost dizzy when I look back at the year and remember certain events and highlights…and the summer, almost a blur! I have come to the conclusion that I don’t always have to be doing something….it is ok to be still. Sometimes it is nice to just sit…to look around and really see…to take a moment to listen to the sounds of life. I’m practicing enjoying silence….enjoying just being still.” I was recalling a night recently when thoughts were…

Outside My Window ~ 5.6.12
Outside my window…Sunday night….end of the weekend….where did the time go? The weekend was filled with some wild weather, work and relaxing in between learning. Friday night came upon us with rumbling thunder, wild and wicked lightening, wind and torrential rains. The weather forecasters had predicted strong storms but I haven’t seen lightening like that in quite some time. It was lighting up the neighborhood….explosions of light that made me nervous each and every time they popped. The storms lasted well into the night. I woke up early Saturday morning to sunshine and warm temperatures. There was sunshine with a healthy does of humidity until early afternoon when the clouds…
