Hot and Not-so-Hot Texas

On Monday the temp was 92F. That was a record high. The other was 91F in 1917. Wow! This morning it was 27F....so I worried that my hanging impatiens flowers would have frozen....we'd been so good at rescuing them when we expected a freeze. We forgot last night....but they look like they may be ok....sorta protected on the porch...we'll see. We have beautiful blue skies...it's so wonderful to go for walks/jobs in the neighbourhood :) No photos....that'd just be too much to expect (?)...

In case I don't get back to this blog soon (my visits to it seem to be fairly infrequent....need to fix that...)....anyway, I want to wish my favourite son a very happy 25th birthday on 9 March. HAPPY BIRTHDAY Gary!!!

darnit, I was going to make fun of you for the walks/jobs thing, but you of course caught it first! And, I'm very proud of you for posting, that wasn't so difficult, was it??? Now, I'll be expecting to see posts more often, definitely after y'all get back from the Irish Festival!! and I still can't believe it was 92 on Monday. Seriously, that's hotter than it was here, and it's SUMMER here...good ol' Texas weather, I'm glad the flowers seem to be okay!

(and by the way, you can click on "edit posts" and edit your post after you publish, just so ya know :)

It was fun talking to you today, my lentils turned out delicious!
