Wow,  just read Bill's blog and saw all the damage they got from the storm. I'm thankful they and their house are OK.

We had a thunderstorm here today, it got so dark the neighbor's street light came on.  The lightning was awesome, one strike after another. It ran in on our telephone line and blew apart the telephone jack. The computer was unplugged, so it escaped, but the phone isn't working now, so dug out an old one, letting it charge and hope it will work. We have our cell phones, so we can call out, but most everybody that calls us uses our  land line. Actually, it's not an all bad thing, since I don't like to talk on the phone much. I sure hate to be out the price of a new phone, though.

It got my MIL's TV, my granddaughter was at her house visiting and said a red fireball came out of somewhere and went right over their heads. Said Grandma grabbed her hair and screamed.

I am glad it rained, it was so hot and humid the last few days, it made us feel a little bit sick to stay outside in it very long. The temperature dropped about 30 degrees and it was really pleasant for awhile. My hubby says the humidity is coming back up, and the weatherman says we might get more storms.

My plants liked it, they all look perked up, they love that natural watering.
