May 2025 - Week 02 & 03

Well, last week must of have been an "off" week or I was just so sick that I didn't get a darn thing done. . .I don't remember!!! All I know is with so much going on it hit doubly hard getting sick!!! I still feel like I'm in a "funk" but I really do need to get order back into my life. It has been quite the month with my MIL passing, the wicked storms that have been in the area and getting sick. I am vowing today I'm going to have two cups of coffee. . .there have been days this week when I've had no coffee and no food at all. I'm too tired and week to even fix it much less eat!!! Today looks to be a good weather day. . .Thursday we got a frantic phone call from our daughter who was sitting in the parking lot of our granddaughter's dance studio when out of the blue it started hailing. She couldn't see it but she could hear it hitting the vehicle. . .it was so loud and sustained that none of the moms were able to make it into the building. When class was over the kids told their Moms that the hail was at least golfball sized. . .NOAA reported that it started as golfball sized and ended up baseball sized. Then lets move to Friday. . .the tornado that hit St Louis slammed the neighborhood where our St Louis daughter used to live. My sister-in-law lives there and while my husband reached out to her, she was oblivious to any damage at her place. Oh, and did I mention the duststorms in our area??? The local TV station reported that dust was coming in through the airconditioning ducts at the studio!!! Multiple reports of accidents from all those storms. Our daughter who experienced the hailstorm the day before said that she could not see the house across the street. . .but she could hear people out mowing their yards. . .crazy right? And if the weather couldn't be any crazier, there were reports of the Northern Lights being sighted last night. . .that's how quickly the storm passed!!! You gotta love spring in the midwest, that's for sure!!! I do have a couple of layouts to share with you. . .hopefully I'll leave this sickness in the rearview mirror next weekend and will have more to share, but for now, it is what it is. . .so here goes. . .
