Well, storms are building all around. Really want the rain as we planted the garden, and I put insect granuales out in the dog's yard. But I am a bit nervous after the Dallas thing. We are just west of Abilene, in Tye. And yes, Becky, we too are in tornado alley. Dennis and I learned a lot in the storm watchers class we took. We know more what to watch for now. And yes, we do live in a mobile home. But I sometimes think the news media targets mobile homes more then houses. If a tornado is coming through, don't matter what you are in, even though houses are a bit safer. But so far, golf ball size hail all around us. Not here yet, thank goodness. We have a lot of wind farms west of us. My son says it causes the storms to go around us, as they usually do. He might have a point. But we aren't gonna miss this round. Fixing to shut this down , so it doesn't get hit by lightening.
All is good. Got garden planted on Good Friday, got a soaking rain for it today (plus soaking in the insect granules) and the Rangers just now came on. Nice evening, rain, baseball, computor games with the best person I could ask to be with. Easter dinner tomorrow at daughter's. Ah yes, life is sweet right now.
