That’s what we were thinking Thursday night. We had some bad storms around this area again. I thought that the tornado in the Stromsburg area was headed right for us, but it dissapated before it got here. We did get around 4 inches of rain though.

Anyway, I’m sitting here messing around with the computer again. I’ve looked at a lot of different stuff lately. For instance, the NASA website, the NOVA website, playing some games on pogo.com, keeping in touch on facebook, and a lot more interesting sites too numerous to list. The shuttle launch is coming up on Monday morning at 8:56am EDT (7:56am CDT). Not many shuttle missions left before they retire them completely. This particular launch will probably get pretty good media coverage. I hope that commander Mark Kelly doesn’t worry too much about his wife when he’s up there. I hear she will be at the launch…good for her! She has made so much progress recovering from her near-fatal gunshot wound. That’s a strong lady there!

Here at home my flowers are mostly planted now. This year we spent way too much money on them, but got some petunias, geraniums, and a couple more new kinds (can’t think of the names right off-hand). I still have some moss-roses to plant by the pond yet. Everything I’ve planted so far is in big pots, that way if I have to I can pull them into the garage or up on to the front porch if more big storms come around. Bill helped mix up the potting soil for them, and he also planted some tomato plants by the alley. We’ll have some good salads and BLT sandwiches later in the summer.

Well, I suppose I better get up off my butt and do something today besides surf. See ya, love ya, bye.
