It did break into a rainy spell as I was heading out to meet Jane for coffee. We went to a coffee shop called Rhubarb Bakery. I am trying to watch my caffeine a bit, so I had a sparkling lemonade with lavender syrup. Also a blueberry and lavender scone.
Lavender is supposed to relax you. I guess it did. Or the fact that we had fireworks all night made me sleepy. I sent Bob for a few groceries without me. I napped for over two hours and still will go to bed very soon.
I have not heard any fireworks this evening although I think they are legal until ten tonight.
I am not sure if we will get more rain or not. I am thinking maybe. That may be why I feel so sleepy right now.

It was quiet around here too. I had planned to watch the news and the fireworks around the world as I do each year but I fell asleep instead.

Vince puts lavender on his hankie and puts it under his head at night. He swears it helps him sleep. I've got my doubts but as long as he thinks it does that's a good thing.

Our capital city is flooded. The main city streets near the river were overflowing with water. This is brought by tropical storm Bising.

They boomed until about 1AM last night. They’ve been going off for about an hour tonight.
I don’t think I’ve eaten or drank lavender. Glad something gave you a good rest!

We're still waiting for rain. We need it badly. I'm sitting here listening to fireworks again; but fortunately the guy next door seems to be done for the holidday.

Nature decides to what next, we can just predict the coming weather. Good night have a sound sleep.
