For the past several days we have had the threat of severe thunderstorms with hail and tornadoes. Fortunately none of that happened-somehow the severe weather missed us...but it did rain pretty heavily for a bit this morning...here is a shot of our waterfall onto the back porch-I'm thinking our gutters must be in need of some cleaning! the roof over the porch is pretty flat and collects water...I think the whole thing needs to be torn down and built anew...oh how I wish that could be done.

Christopher broke a pane in the office window a few weeks ago...we have a temporary patch until my dad (who fixes all of our household problems) comes back to town to replace it. Here you see Chessie trying her hardest to get inside as best she can...even if it is just her snout!! She desperately wants to be an inside dog...but, that won't happen in Calixto's lifetime!

Speaking of my dear husband, he'll be back tomorrow evening! Yay! Christopher's eye is much better just scabbie bumps but the swelling is gone. He will compete in the "Math Olympics" for area Christian schools hosted by CHS tomorrow...he will be competing in computation. Then on Sat. he will have a soccer tournament-they'll be playing 2 Jacksonville teams and a Henderson team. Depending on how that goes he'll have games on Sun. too...we haven't discussed playing on Sun yet?! Ok, I am off to organize some area of my house...maybe the bathroom...maybe Cat's room....hmmm
