Enough of rain for now

The above picture was taken last Friday. The dogs were bored to DEATH!!!! It was thundering and lightning majorly. I usually walk them after our dinner but that evening was not the case. Mother nature was having a fit! And it was a bad one too.  I don’t mind walking if there’s thunder but then the man forbid me to go out at all.  He is the kind that if it thundering and lightning out, no going outside and no using the shower.  

In the picture below, we are in the central part where it says Twin Cities (the box towards the right), if you can read it.  Sorry for the blur picture.  I set the camera mode to something besides Auto.  Didn’t check it before taking the pictures.

There were thunderstorm and tornado warnings. There was actually tornado touch downs but far from us. The picture I took from the news on TV shows where the tornados are – the 2 big red round dots.  Needless to say, DB was glued to the TV watching out for the storm.    There was one bad storm over our head the next night.  Super heavy rain, thunder, lightning right before we head to bed (10 pm).  DB stayed up till the storm passed by which was about 30+ minutes later.

It has been raining every week, at least 3 – 4 days a week.  The ground is so saturated it’s no joke.  Walk on it and it’s “squish, squish”.  There’s water running off the grass onto the sidewalks and roads even the day after.  

There is more rain forecasted for this weekend….storms.  Whoopee doo!  “Love summer weather!” :(

< We Asians! >

Comments Off

It’s weird how Asians tend to stick to together, at least here at work. A new recruiter joined the company and she sits a wall away from me and she’s Asian. (I didn’t know the recruiting department is replacing the other recruiter who has to go for Mesothelioma treatment.) Since this new recruiter came on board, us 3 (another Asian in the same HR area) have been hanging together for coffee and chats. I noticed other Asians in the company are doing the same thing. Chinese from China are in one group and so are the Indians from India. Although the 3 of us Asians are from different countries (Malaysia, Vietnam and Korea), we still share one common thing: filial piety.  We do have very interesting conversations once we get it going!

< 3-day weekend >

Comments Off

Both DB and I are looking forward to the coming 3-day weekend. It’s Fourth of July, America’s independence day. It falls on a Sunday, so both DB and I have Monday, July 5 off. We already have plans to work around the house. First of is to move his office furniture from the garage and boxes of stuff out of my den to his office. Then he has to help me work on my little den where he has to move the book cases so I can clear up my area of boxes! There are still boxes all over the house and garage. Next will be the pantry. Land lady is going to get us the shelving for the pantry, DB will put them up. It will be a busy 3-day weekend for us.
