Good morning! It's a wonderful morning. I woke up to dark skies and thunder. No rain yet, and it's lighter, but I'm not giving up hope for rain today! :) Last night lots of storms moved across the state, though as usual they passed south and north of me. The forecast today is for around 90, or low 90s, mostly cloudy and humid; and a good chance of storms especially later this afternoon. With ridiculously high temps for June, some more rain sure would be welcome!
Last night did not turn out to be very productive, though I did get laundry done. Hopefully tonight I will get back to my massive "to-do" list! LOL! At least this morning has started well ... last of laundry out of dryer, dishes done, dog walked ... and I'm not running late yet! :)
Today is " Tano Day (Korea)" ... "Youth Day (South Africa)".
Quotes of the Day:
"Cherish all your happy moments: they make a fine cushion for old age."
