Singing in the rain


Bob was NOT singing in the rain, he was swimming during the Hurricane Hermione.. and I was hanging out the door yelling. I HEAR THUNDER! and a few things not to be repeated here..

It was POURING RAIN...BOOM! Flash!

I snapped photos and nagged while he scowled at my camera and my Vivid Imagination ran through dozens of scenarios...

Like if the lightning hits him, do I try to get him out? or do I call 911 first? will the water fry me if I do? If he is half alive am I able to get him out of the pool? Do I even want to try?????
Just so you know...

 The Wal-Mart bag was not to keep his hair dry, it was to protect the $3600.00 hearing aids in his ears... from the rain, not the swimming. We were suffering from cabin fever, but I am the SMART ONE... Not Me Sisters. ..

Not Waterfront by Hurricane Hermine/Her Meanie


Hurricane Hermine (pronounced Hermean but we called Hermeanie).

She came, she left, leaving many inches of rain, but not everything Her Meanie left behind was a bad thing.

She turned Bray Park into waterfront property. Part of the park now looks like waterfront but is NOT. She left reflections where they never were before...


Three days after she passed by the water still stands. It is beautiful and I am thinking the mosquitoes are really happy. All this beauty is standing water that will run off soon.. In the mean time...

Be Prepared for LOTS of Photos.....because I can, and did and will......POST THEM...

1. Me saying to Bob, usedtawarnya (they used to warn you) when you license is about to expire

2. Standing in line at Culver's, the cashier said to the man who said no to a soda, doyawannawatercup (do you want a water cup)? 3 times, he said WHAT? 3 times. finally she said Would you like water?
What she meant is they give you a cup and you get your own. I was DYING.

3. Me saying to Bob at 12:10 didneatdidja (you did not eat did you?) because I wanted to go out for lunch

4. we were leaving for the YMCA and a block down the street I said doordowndidni (I put the door down didn't I?)  meaning the garage door.
Remember we live in The Deep South...

UPDATE AT 6:24 AM today
WE ARE FINE... we had coffee in bed with wind, rain and boom flashes. This is the screen on my tablet. the tale is 200 miles out in the gulf, we will have torrential pours and flash/booms all day today while Hermine drags her tale across us.
God keep those in her path safe.
She tour up Florida's East coast 5 days ago and has beat us for 4 days, about 15 inches of rain in 3 days, 10 in one day... We are Fine...others are not.
