This was quite the strange day
I did not get up until 10:30, but I had an excuse.
Last night I pulled my porch recliner out onto the sidewalk and sat outside to watch for meteors.
After all, this is the Persied Meteor shower period and you can expect t to see 40 or more per hour!
So there I am, with 2 blankets covering me, laying on my. back, watching the sky when suddenly a meteor soars past right above me.
Cool I thought.....40 or more per hour.. here I am 15 minutes into it and I have seen one.
After 90 minutes, I had a total of 3.
What the hell.
So, I did not get to bed until a little after 1, Normally I have a potty call at some ungodly hour, so I figured I would go out again.
Never happened. Slept the whole night until around 5, which is actually only 4 hours.
I had a couple of errands to run today. Saw a friend pull into their driveway and pulled in right after her to visit.
Stopped at MK and S's to wish their son good luck.
Went to Walmart and was disappointed 4 of the items on my list were not on the shelf.
Started home and while I was on Flagg Road by the high school I saw a huge column of black smoke to the south.
Being of a curious nature, I went around and saw a house on fire! I don't believe there were any fire fighters on the scene yet, and the smoke was thick and black.
I parked in front of a friend's house and rang their bell, because now I could hear the fire trucks.
When they answered, I I told them a house on the next street was ablaze.
But the main reason I stopped was not the fire, just to say hello and to tell them how sorry I was about a recent death in the family.
It was a big fire too.
I just hope everyone got out safely.
Not as dizzy as I have been. Still a little unsteady when I walk. Still can't hear.
And today we dealt with dropped internet several times.
That is more frustrating than anything. Someone has to be able to figure this out.
Peace and Love
