Another stormy day


We had thunder storms off and on all last night with lots and lots of rain. I wasn't surprised to see all the water in our backyard this morning. Now they say to expect more tonight. The rivers are still rising. They probably won't crest until tomorrow afternoon sometime at 6 ft. over flood stage!  Highway 224 west is closed and Rt. 49 south. Here in town we've gotten 3.6" with the possibly of another 1" tonight. The temperature today was suppose to get up to 62° but it didn't make it.


We just got back from seeing our tax man. He did have good news for us… very good. All we owe this year is $11.00 for the school, $0 to the state and we get all of our Federal back. We're very happy.

We got a phone call earlier today. The ID said "consumer research". I won't answer those types of calls anymore, so I asked Bob if he wanted to talk to them, answer their questions. He did. They identified themselves, very rapidly, but he said it was just a bunch of letters that made no sense at all. The first thing she asked was to speak to the youngest registered voter in the household. He said "that would be me". Actually he's 7 months older than me. hahaha 

Now why would they ask that? Next they asked "when you vote, do you vote  Democrat or Republican"? He said he votes for the person he thinks will do the best job. She said thank you and hung up.  Now if we had an 18 year old child in the house, I can imagine the kinds of things they would have asked/told them. The way this administration is brain-washing the younger generation, this bothers me a lot. Bob said he should have told her he was still waiting for his free cell phone, or tell her "Obama said he'd pay my mortgage and he hasn't done it yet".

That's about all for today. I'm going to work on a jigsaw puzzle then take my Kindle to bed. The book I'm reading now is getting very interesting. Can't wait to find out "who done it". 

Hope you've had a good day.

  1. We had hard rain on and off last night and it was still going when I went to bed, but sometime during the night it quit and we are to have a fairly nice day. Up early as Jim has to be at the dr. office at 7:30 and then we scoot over to one of our granddaughter's 'walk-a-thon" at 9:15. Any time I know I have to get up early, I wake up way before I should....lol Have a nice day my friend.
