Oh, Joy!

It looks like we are going to get some more warm temperatures again this week! Then we'll get some more cold early next week....

These are some pictures that I took of my houses back yard today. The morning was a little cold, but the high temperature supposedly got to 72 degrees during the afternoon. It felt a little warm/slightly cool. But it looks like we are going to get a few more warm days until another arctic cold front passes through and it becomes cold again. We may also get some severe storms later this week, so I am going to need to keep an eye on that!
I was watching the weather channel today and they said that east Texas is going to have a torcon of 5/10 when the severe storms pass through sometime Friday, Saturday, or early Sunday. So, I guess that means that Houston has a 50% chance of seeing a tornado! Uh-oh, that's not good! I hope that changes.
And here is a picture of the pile of leaves that I began raking today.

I haven't really gotten that far with it, I just put the leaves into piles.
Also Ah! What is that!

    I'm feeling JOY about the warm ones, like yesterday and today were here, and more like "oh joy " :-/ about the cold ones returning. I'm really liking this 70 degree stuff in December! You have a beautiful yard, some TALL trees there, and a lot of leaf raking to do! It's nice to be outside when it's warm though... enjoy!

    Curiously I have never really moaned about the weather. Yesterday in Adelaide, South Australia it got to 43.3 C luckily as I live closer to the coast it was a cooler by a degree or two! There are those that moan if there is a frost in winter but they are probably wearing short sleeves still. We all adapt and I am certainly grateful for experiencing other extremes in Europe. As you illustrate nature adapts too. Great pics for this time in the year.

Toy Cars And a New Computer!

Image
Look at all of my toy cars! I was just organizing them before I put them into a different box, but I had to move them a little early to make some roof for my new computer! So back into the box they went! I've always wanted to arrange my toy cars like this since I was a kid, when I would see them arranged like this in toy car collector magazines and books, I thought it looked pretty cool. Anyway I had to get a new computer because my laptop's screen finally went out and it was becoming slow. It would sometimes take couple of minutes to load a webpage, so I knew I had to get a new computer. I got a Lenovo from Microcenter. It's refurbished, but it looks and works like new. Microcenter also gives you a keyboard and mouse, but it doesn't come with a monitor unless you want one, but it will cost you  a little extra. The whole computer with keyboard and mouse cost a hundred dollars with thirty dollar shipping, very cheap and works better than my laptop.  The rea...

White Lies

She smiled through her white lies as she wandered from table to table. Being a waitress was not one of her funnest jobs and she didn't feel like explaining the menu to every single person. "IS THAT FOOD GREAT?" "IS THAT FOOD GREAT?" "IS THAT FOOD GREAT?" "WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND?" "They are all good!" she would say with a wearied smile. She didn't think that the food was all that good though, except for maybe the hamburger, but even that wasn't all that great either and she wanted to tell the truth, but it was her only job and she didn't want to lose it. Wandering and wandering through the tables day in and day out. Until one day she collapsed and it happened, the pasta fell all over the man in the suits shirt. "I ordered the food to eat it, not wear it!" Said the man in the suit with a sarcastic tone to the waitress. The waitress looked at the man in horror. "I'll..I'll...clean it up" she ...
