We flooded yesterday. This was the third time this year and the worst of the three. My son had water right up to his house. I have some pictures and I'll try soon to get all of my pictures posted on here.

I have a lot of threads to catch up on so don't be surprised to see some from days ago show up!!!
I'm so sorry you got hit with the floods again Diana! I hope you and your family don't have too much damage. Will you be able to plant your crops this season?

I've been busy outside, ran off with Londa yesterday for several hours, have been meeting with buyers picking up pups, talking with others interested in the remaining pups, and so on.
Greg planted a new flowerbed for me this weekend with the perennials I bought at a garage sale last weekend. He put border around it, mulched it with cedar chips, and it looks very nice! Gotta love a man who's willing to do this kind of work for his lady.
He also patched the big run where Canada had made some holes, added to the Hosta bed, and only "let" me go shopping yesterday if I'd promise not to buy him a fathers day gift. He said there's nothing he needs and he knows I love him, so that's all the gift he wants. Awwwwwwwwww

I am here every day because it is too hot and humid to work outdoors. We have been having a lot of unexpected lightening and I am scared of it. When I was a teen ager, was ironing and a streak of lightening came in and knocked the iron out of my hand. MAD WE A BELIEVER!!!!!

Oh Donna, that had to have been so scary. Were you hurt in any way? It was in our paper that a teenage girl was closing a window because it was raining in and she got struct by lightening. She is fine except for some tinkling AND numbness in her arms, but with therapy, it should leave no lasting effects.

lightening is nothing to mess with! My brother had a cb in his room when i was little and he had this big antanna outside in the yard, just an old ugly looking thing, anyways lightening stuck it. My Dad said he didn't ground the antanna, well my girlfriend and i were playing in that room, i just remember a big boom !! We couldn't hear for a long time .. Thank God he always unpluged the back of the cb and stuck it in an old flower vase, i guess the lighting came into the house and the vase counter reacted the impact, but when the lightening went back out of the house where my brother drilled a hole for the connection to the antanna it blow a nice hole in the house! Lighting and thunder still scare the crap out of me.
After that happen, my mother took the cb out of his room!

Our home was struck by lightening when I was a little girl and again after Glen and I were married. I hate lightening especially when it's close. We had so many close hits in the old house because we sat right in the middle of a large field so the trees were the highest things around.

Janet, I read about the girl that you talked about. The lightening struck her while she was inside of the house closing a window. Scary.
