A strange event.

About an hour ago, it went dark out there.  I saw a storm coming... actually thought it was already mostly here.  Not so much.  When it went dark, I thought, at first, that time had slipped by and it was already night.  I just couldn't believe that, not quite.  Checking the clock, with the use of a light because it was even darker in here, it was just right around 16:00.

Right as I noticed it had become dark, the rain hit.  It rained for a goodly bit.  All good, could sure use water.  Pretty much, here, water is always welcome.  Especially since they may well be shipping as much of it to Cali as they can.  I still wonder if they are letting the water rights holders know, and paying for the use?  I know if I had shares, I'd be watching how much is coming in and how much is said to be coming in, comparing and contrasting this and that, even checking myself.

Anyway.  A good rain was needed.  Though we have had several recently, and a reasonable amount of snow this winter.  There is still snow up there.  Which is why I won't trust if they say we are short.  Further south I can't say.  But up here, we should have had enough, unless they are shipping it out.

A last welfare check on my mom.  We'll see.  As is, though, I'll be calling her anywhere from a few times a week to every other week, so as not to be a bother.  Though, I think with her dog gone, calls are a bit more appreciated.  Still, I don't wish to be a pest.

The tarps are still over the rabbit cages, saves those in a building.  But that has a roof.  The ducks don't care about rain, it's heat, if anything, that would bother them.  It dropped to fifty, but the ducks and rabbits have weathered twenty below, so this is nice weather.  It's, again, the heat that I will have to moderate for... at least with the rabbits.  More water for the ducks, and they do fine.

Hmm, what was I going to do today?  Ah, kitchen duty, and maybe bathroom work, with trash actually being priority.  Well, and cooking something or other.  If I can.  Wearing shoes to try to get my feet back into some kind of shape.  Adds to the pain, but... it might help, over time.  Good day.
