rain?

 Well, 9 p.m. and no. rain

    Notice the . in that?

    My fingers must be pretty big, because I seem to have commas a lot even though I don't hit the comma key.

    And it is not a key that is next to one I would use.  But the commas keep coming.  Also, I have to figure out how to turn off auto correct.  Sometimes it finishes a word for me and I also finish. the word, making for a strange combination of letters.

    I am not a bad typist.  Really.  I can type without looking at the keyboard because I know my home keys.  I learned that in the only class I failed at Lake View High School.  I think to pass the class I had to type 40 words a minute with 5 or fewer mistakes.  I could type 42 words a minute, but I always had 6 or 7 mistakes on the typing tests.  So I flunked,

    That was/is a case of a failure being positive, because I can type.

    Anyway....I did not do much. today.  Watered the porch plants, picked up dog doo, made supper.  I experimented tonight.  I boiled some small white potatoes, mashed them, put butter, rosemary and parmesan cheese on them and served them.  I don't think I had enough butter because they were a little dry.

    But the steaks were not burnt, which is an improvement.

    I also sat on the front porch, nursing a glass of rosé.  Last year I had several French rosé wines I liked, but this year none of them were in the store.  I imagine the tariffs played a part in that.  Maybe a trip to Binny's is in order.

    To the north I could see lightning and I heard the thunder......but we have yet to get a drop.

    Hopefully overnight or tomorrow we get some needed rain. I may have to mow this week, because the areas around trees that I water and the garden are lush and thick while the rest of the yard is brown.

    My heart goes out to the folks in Idaho tonight.  I just don't understand.

Peace and Love
