A Rainy June!

This has been a very strange June! Today it's June 16th and we have not watered our lawn, garden and flowers all month. It has rained just about every day, with a lot of thunder. It's been nice not to have to water. But I'm starting to wonder if we need to buy or build a house boat. I guess it really could be worse. Last year it was still snowing in June.

This is what happened on Monday June 8th.

Yes it hailed. The hail was marble sized. The sky was very black and I even started looking for the tornado, which thank heavens didn't show up.

I have now been off my Tracleer for almost 2 weeks now. The headaches are gone, but I am totally unable to exercise. My heart rate is a lot higher even at rest and it's impossible to keep it below 130 when doing even mild exercise. So I'll call Dr. Shrader tomorrow and find out where we go from here. Even thought I haven't been able to exercise, it's been wonderful not having the headaches. My stomach is even feeling better now that I'm not taking all the Ibuprofen and Excedrin.

The only thing new at our house is that we have gotten Direct TV and Quest Internet. We love watching the HD programs on our big TV. It's amazing how clear and detailed the picture is. The only problem is we don't get any local channels, so today the Direct TV people are coming to put up their antenna to see if that helps. If not I'll be calling someone else in to do it. I know we get the signals here. It's just a matter of getting the right antenna.

Just thought I'd show you my little flower garden. I'm really sad that one of my pink flowers Kirsti and Kenzie planted for me last year has died. I don't know what happened to it. The other one is just beautiful. I've got 2 other plants I planted near the pink one that aren't doing very well. Hopefully they will start doing better.
