Make some good bank for a “rainy day”.

However I would have said ,
“ make a little extra money on the side for a rainy day”... ?

Good afternoon all.
The rain and wind has arrived, as promised, - it's more like October than May.
Lola went to the door but when he saw the weather turned around and went back to bed - he's not stupid!!
Hope you're all having a good Thursday

Here it’s more like mid-August than early May. We haven’t had rain in ages, lawns and weeds & flowers actually drying up.

It's just gone 1 a.m. here but I can't sleep because of the strong winds.
Gusts of over 50mph are set to last through the night and all day tomorrow.
We've not had such strong winds for such a prolonged period for a long time.
I bet there'll be trees down and quite a few baby birds lost in this.:(

Anyway I'm whiling the night away here.

Well I hate that Lyn. I’m no stranger to long nights.. I hope the wind damage is not as bad as it sounds right now..

Good morning all.
The 50 mph wind and rain are still battering us. I went to bed about 5.30 am to try to get some sleep then up again at 7. 45. I lost a pane of glass in my old lean-to but it was cracked anyway so I have to patch that up. It's all coming down soon, so not a big problem and it can wait until the wind drops when it will be safer. It should start to calm down mid afternoon - thank goodness! Surprisingly it's not a named storm considering it will have lasted about 24 hours, I still haven't found out their criteria for doing that.
Anyway I hope you are having a quieter day but with some gentle rain in the areas that need it,
Enjoy Friday!!

Reminds me of trying to get into a brand new too-small girdle. You make the holes too small on purpose or so they'll chew their way in & never leave?

I did some research on the preferred sizes for Carpenter Bees & other solitary bees. Google has all of the info on almost everything these days. If not google, YouTube.

I'm fine thank you - just tired?
I always think Mother Nature is trying to tell us something with this weird weather. Unfortunately there aren't enough people listening who dismiss the impact we are having on this planet.?
