And the thunder rolled

The black clouds gathered in the distance, and moved in around us shortly after 5:00 p.m.  The rain came down in torrents, the lightening and thunder came next.  The temp fell from 33*C to 23*C in 20 minutes and during that time we had an inch of rain.  Much needed rain, as the crops were nearing drought conditions.  During the night we had another 1/2 inch of rain and currently the skies are cloudy so more rain is expected throughout the day.  It is amazing how quickly the plants in the garden and the lawn look so much better for the lower temps and rain.   

Did quite a lot in the sewing room yesterday working on the guilds challenge quilt, trying to get caught up with the monthly rounds, June is a round of blocks with curved seams, on the 15th of this month the July round will be published.  Then there is my youngest grand daughters quilt to do some work on, and recently I found out my grand nephew and his wife are expecting a baby, so I will make a quilt for them.

Laundry currently being done, and it looks as if the vacuum should be used on the floor, and when all that is done it will be lunch time.  Women's work is never done.

Dinner tonight, quick and easy, I seem to be doing a lot of quick and easy these days.   Hot dogs, brown baked bean, and a cabbage salad.   Fruit in jelly for dessert,  

Stay safe stay well
