Sunshine Sunday and Blue Sunday for the Tigers!

So far today we have had beautiful blue skies. It is hot with a high of 91 so far today with a feels like temperature of 104/! It is very humid too. We were supposed to get a thunderstorm this afternoon but that hasn't happened. It would be nice though just to cool us down a few degrees. I had planned on going to the flea market after lunch today but those plans were changed also. I found out that our baseball game started at 3 pm and not 6 pm like I thought. So I stayed home to watch the game. It started out to be a great game with momentum going on both sides. However, the pitching for LSU has not been up to par. Instead of putting our best pitcher in during the 5th or 6th inning to make a difference and stay in the game, this pitcher did not get called to the mound until the 9th inning where it was impossible to catch up the multiple runs we needed. Sad, sad game. Photo of a nice and pretty day with blue skies. Photo Credit: © 2021 Karen Gros, All rights reserved

I am finding there is not enough hours in the day to get everything done again. And I'm staying up much later than I should!!

Who were the Tigers playing against? Since the Gators have been eliminated, I need to root for the SEC teams.

TN, We had several SEC teams drop out. I thought our beating was bad enough but Ole Miss got a good one too!

We're getting over 100f everyday this week with the possiblity of 110f on Saturday, I hope not, but it's dry and my plants are starting to shrivel even though I water them.

Yep keeping flowers watered is almost a full time job in the summer. I sometimes feel like that after doing all the feeding and watering for all the animals and plants.

Yep and seriously saving the best pitcher for end of game is good but when nobody else is working you need to him in at that moment. I really think the game would have had a more competitive edge for sure.

@DocAndersen Well when it is the game you have to win to go on to Omaha there is no reason to save the best pitcher, right?

We had a heavy thunderstorm warning out at noon (another reason I ditched flea market today) and nothing happened until late afternoon. We did get a good downpour for about an hour and it cleared out.

Yes, I'm hoping we get into the normal summer afternoon hit or miss thunderstorms that don't last all day. That's okay and welcome to take the temps down a bit. It was bad today. They say Wednesday is going to be really hot with temps at 95 or higher.

Yes, and I wouldn't have minded the rain sooner today to cool things down. I hope to get an early start tomorrow so I can get back home and put some time into working with the plants.
