Well, we finally got some rain. There were two close thunderclaps that just about knocked me out of my chair! The plants and grass will enjoy the moisture and the nitrogen in the air. I see the NBA finals are being played. It seems like the basketball season has gone on for months and months and months. Do you watch basketball? Nothing much else going on. Our housekeeper comes today. Our flower bed is full of weeds already. I doubt if she will weed today. The ground is too wet to stand on. Breakfast - None Lunch - Lentil soup Dessert/Snack - Donut and decaf coffee Dinner - Turkey and Swiss sandwich and the last of the potato salad What did you eat yesterday? Photo Credit: Mine - One of the famous headstones in the Key West Cemetery. It says, "I told you I was sick".

We had a good thunderstorm starting at dinner time and it rained during all the night. I like the clean air this morning. I do not watch any kind of sport.

@LadyDuck I only enjoyed watching football and other sports when my son was playing.

I think I missed the last NBA final game. I am hoping the Denver Nuggets finish it off. So many people seem to be rooting for Miami, but I admire the Nuggets simple, hard working team attitude. They seem to play for each other, and not for glory. But that might just be my nonsense view.

@LindaOHio I have to admit, I didn’t watch a single basketball game until the finals. My favorite sports are football and baseball, but I like a good story like the Nuggets.

I've never followed basketball. Hubby and I watch football. I hope your team wins.

@AmbiePam We will very rarely watch a baseball game with the Cleveland Guardians (hate that name that they picked when they had to change it from the Indians).

I'm glad you got rain but hopefully you won't get anymore lightening. I wonder why there's no name on the headstone

I'm kinda surprised there wasn't anything about family on it.

Guy must’ve been a hypochondriac. No, I don’t watch basketball. Never really cared for it, even though I had a major schoolgirl crush on Louie Dampier when he played with the Kentucky Colonels in the old American Basketball Association. Yesterday was CTS (chicken taco salad) for lunch and chicken soup and rice for dinner.

@LindaOHio — I know, just like soccer. Except in basketball they actually score.

@FourWalls Yes! We watched part of a soccer game; and no one scored. Boring.

Hubby and I can't get into basketball. Run to one side of the court and then turn around and run to the other side. Rinse and repeat.

We have not had hard downpours with the rain, only light rain that is on and off over the past 24 hours. It is good to have it come down so gently so that there is no flooding. It is much cooler today again. I can relate to the headstone, I feel the same way. I caught a cold that the twins have, but has gone to my lungs again. I am being as careful as I can with this.

@LindaOHio I have never relied on antibiotics because your body can build up a resistance to them and then when you really need them to work they will fail.

Oh, no. Nowadays they tell you that if you get bronchitis to power through it unless it gets really bad to avoid having to take antibiotics too often. I hope you feel better soon.

@Juliaacv Exactly why they tell you to tough it out if you get bronchitis.

We had several days of storms and rainfall with lots of thunder and lightning. I have no idea what Pretty's been feeding me. I'm sure it was some of the food I've made an put in the freezer but that's all I'm sure of. It's been chilly today. She said it was 55F early this morning and I know we only reached 74F for a high today.

It sounds as if several of my friends are getting the beginnings of the rain they need.

Yes. There are still a lot of drought areas though. We are actually still in a drought even though we got some rain.

No, I don't watch basketball anymore, and I'm glad it rained there. It rained here too the whole day, which reduced the temperature to tolerable levels. Breakfast - oatmeal Lunch - rice and fish Dinner - rice and pork chop suey

That headstone is so funny and it reminds me of my dad. He always said he wanted that to be written on his headstone but my mom didn't think it was funny. Last night we had eggplant parmesan with spaghetti.

@LindaOHio Another of those who must be only well-known in England and Australia. It's hard to work out who is known in each country and who isn't. He was a comedian.

Very sad. His headstone is quite the popular destination in the cemetery.
