THE WEATHER - AGAIN

There is a first time for everything - This is the first time in all the years that I have been blogging that I am writing about the same thing two weeks in a row.

Yesterday we had high winds, temperatures in the high 70's, heavy rain and tornado warnings.

Fortunately we did not get hit with a tornado but it was not a pleasant day.

Today we are having very heavy rains - no heavy winds, no tornado warnings but it's raining heavy enough so that I canceled the plans I had for the day.

Weeks ago while I was out shopping I came across an attractive bathing suit, the price was right, the colors were lovely and when I tried on the suit, it fit! Optimist that I am, I bought the suit with hopes of wearing it in the near future. It is laying quietly and patiently in a dresser draw.

I'll be leaving in a few weeks, the way things are going it looks like I'll have to wait until I get up north to get my suit wet!

Pretty soon I'll be packing all the clothes I brought down here, most of which have been hanging in my closet, not touched by human hands!

The only time I've been to the pool area this season is when we play Mah Jongg.

My group likes to play outside so even if it is cool out, we bundle up and play outdoors.

Last week we set up outside and played for about two hours and than it got so cold and windy we had to wrap up the tiles and gingerly carry them inside the clubhouse.

Forecast for the next few days - sunny and mild - I'll believe it when I see it!
