It really rained this morning. It rained until about 2PM. The rain stopped.
It is 4PM now. I went out for a little walkabout. But, I don’t think that we are over this yet.

- DESTRUCTIVE HAIL THE SIZE OF QUARTERS OF LARGER.
An altogether great day to lounge on the sofa and read a book and drink coffee. The wifi went out for a while. And I am sort of scraping the bottom of the larder. Not too worry, I have plenty of coffee. I got a lot of stuff ready to go back to The Asylum today.
Don’t think I will venture out for dinner. The wind is picking up and it is still thundering. Think I’ll finish up my last eggs tonight.
Egg’s did not happen because as soon as I wrote that sentence the power went off. And it rained. Also thunder and lightning. Oh yes and hail. I waited a couple of hours and decided that cottage cheese and pineapple was dinner. Being a well prepared old woman, I have a flash light. One that isn’t a part of my phone. So I went out on a scouting mission. I discovered that Starbucks has power, and I think the grocery stores do too. So, I have a plan for tomorrow morning if I am still in the dark.
