Sorry, Janet. I do know what you're feeling right now. With all of the tornados and warnings it's hard not to be worried about it. However, when adults are with children then the panic needs to be contained because it can make the children worry and develop fear any time there's a storm. Panicky adults need to be removed from where the children are!!!
I hope you soon are clear from all of the storms. I know that for us that was when we were finally able to relax. Keep safe!!!! |

Yes it has calmed down...finally. There is alot of damage here in Indiana. On my way to school this morning I picked one student up and then had to turn around because there was a tree across the road.
Just down the road....a house had a huge tree break and branches were everywhere including on top of the house. Lots of branches are down all over. Said today was going to be rain, but the storms would resume because of the temps and pressures. Monday and Tuesday we are suppose to hit 90 degrees. This weather has been so bad for so many people.

Glen said that we don't have any rain in the forecast for a week to ten days. I'm glad. The bad weather really stresses me because we live in the country. We're too far away to hear the sirens in town.....however, we will have friends and family call us if we're in danger. Jaci is good about calling us or we'll call the kids and make sure they know to keep an eye on the weather. If it's really bad we'll have Dae Lynn come over and stay because she lives in a double wide home. Amy and Jason do too but they live really close to us if the weather should get bad. Jaci and Nate and Feyn and Tammy have either basements or a cellar to go into.
We've had such nice cool weather that I'm going to miss it but Glen needs the fields to dry out so he can get beans planted!!! I'm ready for the pond to warm up so I can go swimming!!! Yay!!!! |

Kansas needs to dry out so the wheat can ripen properly. I always think about wheat harvest for the month of June and July. In Oklahoma we usually cut wheat in June, then in July the combines would move to Kansas and up north. I love wheat harvest, it's some of my most favorite memories.

Yes, wheat harvest is pretty neat!! The wheat is starting to turn from green to the golden color and it's so pretty waving in the wind.
We don't have any wheat ourselves. Glen's found that we make more money with the other crops so he hardly ever plants it. My SIL, Nate, does have some wheat though. Since we're in the southern part of Kansas we usually start cutting wheat in June too....usually by July the harvest will be mostly done. |
