Okay first off I want to say THANK YOU to Kristy for
sending me some rain. Oh wait it didn't rain.
KRISTY YOU PROMISED YOU WERE SENDING ME SOME RAIN FROM
ALABAMA. EXPLAIN PLEASE???? We waited and
waited and waited. It rained around us. It
rained ALL around us. You need to make sure you
put the right address on the mailing label next time.
:) OKAY? |

moving on... |

Okay so I still have not made a decision on the class
subject. I am trying to figure out what six
classes a week would feel like. :) I suppose
it wouldn't be any different than "back in the day" when
I was in high school? I mean that was six or seven
classes in a day. :) I guess I need to flip
a coin. Now if I knew what David was doing for the
next 12 months :) that would help. I think we were
hoping that come this fall or winter we could go
somewhere? Then again maybe not. I think
Joey thinks I am nuts either way. I would imagine
though that David would tell me to go to school. I
mean they can come down here as well :) There is
always that long break for Christmas and New Years.
MAYBE by then I will be able to go back up to Canada.
Still waiting for word. May is nearing the
half-way point. Tick-Toc-Tick-Toc
We were planning on living somewhere else for a month
or two this winter. SOMEWHERE THAT ACTUALLY
RECEIVES SNOW. I say we...I guess it would be ME
that was wanting to live somewhere that snows this
winter. The way things are going we will be 80
degrees around here at Christmas with thunderstorms.
:( Never a good thing.
Last year
THIS was the scene across Western Kentucky
and Southern Illinois...
Seriously though...more like March 2005 around here.
Perhaps this winter we will have
record snowfall...temperatures of -20 :) and all of that
good stuff! I can dream
right? I always do.
Okay back to the school subject...perhaps we need to
take an internet survey on the school question and go
from there.
|
I will email the counselor, at school, and ask her a few
more questions. I guess I will go from there.
:) |

So Julie Kohn sent me these photos
in an email :) I thought they were cute.
Everyone needs a bunny and a deer in their backyard.
:) Beats a Moose I guess. |

This has been one of the quietest Springs that I can
remember in YEARS. LITTLE severe weather has
impacted our region. After the last 10 years you
sort of got used to big outbreaks of tornadoes and hail
storms. So this has been a nice break for all of
us that follow severe storms. What is a weatherman
to do with his time? :)
The extended forecast is for quiet weather through
the next 8 days. We could have a cold front move
in on Tuesday or Wednesday and that will likely spark a
few thunderstorms. Nothing HUGE though. Will
keep an eye on it though just in case. Otherwise
through day 8 it is going to be slowwwww in the weather
department. One model hints at active weather
towards the end of the month. Drought anyone?
Could be if we don't start getting rainfall on a regular
basis.
BELOW IS THE DROUGHT MONITOR
PUT OUT BY THE U.S. GOVERNMENT - SHOWING AREAS OF
DROUGHT (The Southeast United States is burning).
The next class from Mississippi
State is going to be Natural Disasters. So that is
right up my alley! I think I will enjoy this
class. Hopefully I will learn something!
Class starts again next week. We only have one
class for the Spring Semester. :) |

I heard a great saying
on television today -
Teamwork makes the dream
work! |
So that is your saying for the day :) |

Is this a boring day? Well I don't know about
boring...just not much to do. :) I guess
Saturdays are supposed to be like that? Right?
My friend Corey called
from Atlanta! I haven't talked to him in a few
months. I am excited because he is talking about
going back to school. This is something he has
been wanting to do for some time now. I am hoping
he will quickly get from point A to B. :) He
has been working hard to pay some bills off. Then
he is going back to school! He was wanting to go
into landscaping...but I think he might be thinking
about another direction instead. Time will tell!
I keep telling him to move up here and go to school.
Now if we can get Corey to move
to somewhere like L.A. and then Kristy moves to Boston.
:) We will be set! We can go visit
California and the Northeast. :) Nobody
wants to visit Paducah though :( I know...I know -
it's not the MOST exciting place in the world. It
isn't the most boring either. We do have the BBQ
Festival :) and then there is the square dancing
downtown on Saturday Nights. I mean what more
could one ask for?
Oh I forgot...Joey said I never
posted his new car photos. I got rid of the global
warming SUV and decided to get something with better gas
mileage and better payments I suppose. :)
Here would be that photo ;)
|
I am NOT a car person...so don't ask me what kind of car
it is. Says Wynn on the front. I think that
is where he bought it. :) He likes
it...guess that is all that matters. :) |
|

|
|
Sigh... |
|
|
|
Okay so right outside my front door...about three feet
away :) there are these baby birds. THEY ARE SO
UGLY. I know...I know they are supposed to be cute
baby birds. But hey I call them as I see
them...check it out :) |
|
|
|
|
|
See I told you they were ugly... |
|
|
|
|
|
We will check back on them in a few days. I hope
they can survive this year. They seem to appear
every year in the same spot...they don't always make it
though. Not the best place for baby birds. |

OKAY now this is
ridiculous
High gas prices are posted at a
Shell gas station
in San Francisco, Thursday, May 10, 2007. With
gasoline prices poised to break records at the pump,
energy futures prices jumped Thursday as traders
noticed a gas supply imbalance in the fine print of
Wednesday's government inventory report.

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY :) |

Trying to learn how to make these color satellite
images :) This one turned out okay. Lot of
dust
in the Atlantic. Not good for tropical systems.
Will be curious to see how that impacts this
hurricane season. Last year forecasters believed
that it help put a damper on everything. |
|
|
|
|
|
Some more images I made from today's
satellite photos...Isn't the world a BEAUTIFUL place :) |
|

South America in all of its glory :) |

So yeah...it is Sunday. Took mother out to
Whaler's Catch to eat. Deena and Danielle are in
Washington D.C. on a field trip. Dione and Tommy
went to Tennessee...to his folks. So it is just
us! It is a nice day out...beautiful actually.
We were out on the patio for awhile. The
temperatures are nice and the humidity is low! My
kind of day. There might be a few thunderstorms on
Tuesday Night and then cooler weather for the rest of
the week. Go figure. |
