Back to Class

The day started out very rainy. It rained hard for a while and then rained a good part of the morning. I poured out 4 inches of rain from the rain gauge yesterday. I haven't gone out to empty it today...but...drum roll...looking out my sun porch window, it looks like there is another 3 inches in it! I still wonder if this is registering correctly. But then I heard about flash flooding on Interstate 24 near Chattanooga...so "just" down the road from me, it was a nightmare for cars and trucks and rescuers and the interstate in that area was closed for a while. So I know that there has been unusual amounts of rain in short periods of time happening around me...so guessing that my gauge is perhaps fairly correct. The yard looked like a lake for a little while this morning. Today I went back and forth between doing some things around the house and stitching. I am well underway with Melany and Wade's ornament...hoping to get even further this evening. I still have a load of wash to put away...just haven't gotten upstairs with it yet. I just returned from church. The class I referred to in the blog title is the Bible study started back up tonight after the summer break. It was good to start up that routine, again. I decided to run to the Credit Union before church...but to my surprise they now close at 5pm...wonder when that started. I rarely go in the evening, but it used to close at 6pm. Oh, well, I tried! I am home and settling in for the evening per usual. I got to see Kathy and Joy this eveninng. They joined us for the Bible study and sat right behind me. Joy very quiet...but there. I talked to her a little and got a couple of smiles and shrugs from her. Esther has orientation at Columbia State Community College tomorrow. "Things" are gearing up! To be continued! Be safe! Be well! Be cautious!
