Night Sky

In the dead of the night it came.  First as one thunk, against the house, then increasing in volume, and then the hail dropped from the sky.   My curtains lite up as lightening streaked across the dark sky.  I went and got the camera, hoping to get a picture of the lightening, but I would click, as the lightening started, and a breathe or two after the lightening flashed the camera would snap the shot of the now darkened sky. 

Finally, I remembered there was "video" on the camera, so I took a couple of videos, but the computer will not support them, so I am putting the one that turned out on this blog so that I can view it.  Very little thunder with the storm.   The video shows the end of the storm....wished I had gotten the brunt of it!

The majesty of God's handiworks is awesome--the lightening, the hail, the dark night sky--who can be like the Lord!

Inside Day

And the rains continue.   Yesterday afternoon, the rain stopped for a bit and suddenly it looked like we were living in dandelion land.  There is no way to get the mower in to mow until the ground dries up a little.  And, we can't spray until the rains stop.  The latest weather report shows that after today the sun will come out.   I am waiting.....  I hope they don't change that forecast!!  We need that sun for our garden to sprout and grow!

Freckles came home soaking wet and hungry this morning.  He was purring away as I dried his fur off. Something, from out on the prairie, has been stalking the cats; but, I haven't been able to catch it yet.  It has broke through the fence three times.  It has to be bigger than the cats or it would just take the path the cats use to get in.  So far it has just scared the cats off and eaten their food.  I am watching for the fox that has been hanging around to see if he has been sneaking up to the house, hungering for kitty food and cats. 

Today will be busy.  If the sun is out tomorrow, then all the housework needs to be done today, so that we can get outside when the sun shines!  God is good...there is always hope for the future.  The day may come when the only hope will be the one True Hope -- life in the new world with the Lord.  As always, our trust is in the Lord.

Somehow I lost the list of followers and the gadget that lets you follow the blog.   I just can't find a fix in any of the instructions, so, if you are still reading this....you might be the last followers. 

I will look further into this tomorrow.
