They had a deluge of rain in Pinedale day before yesterday, someone told me. It helped a lot to control the big forest fire. It had grown to about 15,000 acres. The smoke and haze seems to have cleared off here for the time being anyway. So much prettier out there with clear air. It sprinkled early this morning, breezy and partly sunny off and on during mid day and then dark again. We had the most spectacular huge thunder clouds this evening. There was a big storm east of Big Piney but so far by 8:30 p.m. we have not had any rain. We could sure use it.
The National Weather Service has issued an urgent Flash Flood Watch for portions of Southwest Wyoming due to thunderstorms. These storms have the potential to produce very heavy rain and flash flooding. An upper level disturbance moving across the region will generate scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms with the potential to produce very heavy rainfall and flash flooding.Am really tired. Been going all day long. Bonnie came to finish up the last of the house cleaning, I got a bunch of stuff out of the way and some of the furniture moved before she got here because its been such a cluttered mess in here. She got my studio walls and ceiling done. She's all finished now and sure did a WONDERFUL job. I'm so relieved to have the house all clean. We talked about what she would like to have for a painting in trade.
Didn't think the carpet in the studio needed cleaning until we moved things around and its obviously filthy. It hasn't been long since Debbie cleaned it for me. It's Raven! She is always so dirty - I've never had a dog that stayed so dirty all the time. Most of them have always wanted to be clean and at least shake the dirt and dead grass off their coats. Anyway. we moved the furniture away from the walls and I used the carpet cleaner there. I told Bonnie I could use the carpet cleaner. Tomorrow when its dry, Joe will help me move the furniture back and I'll clean the carpet in the center of the room. Then get everything put away and uncluttered.
Had company again today - Jonita stopped in after berry picking and picnicing in the canyon with a couple friends. They checked out the art show. This afternoon I watered the flower pots and some of the shrubs.
The TV guy in town never called me with a time the repairmen would come so I called him today. He says he will have a date for me by Monday - the repair men didn't come over from Idaho Falls this week. But I'm o.k. watching videos until they can fit me in. It's Lonesome Dove right now, and then I think I'll watch all the Star Wars movies. As long as Joe's got his TV we're doing fine. He's being more careful about what buttons he's pushing now Several days have gone by that I haven't had to get the settings back.
We had cheese enchiladas and refried beans for dinner, They turned out pretty good this time - anyway my taster is probably a little better right now. My stomach is feeling better too and my fingers have started healing up. Nanny called this afternoon and had an enjoyable visit with her, then Beverly called tonight. They are all doing fine, just staying too busy as usual.
Judi is going to go with me to Oncology Tuesday. We will meet the shuttle at the Pinedale Clinic at 9 a.m. They're having this month's Mixed Media up at Dee's in Wilson on Tusday and I was trying to figure out how we could go to the meeting for a while, but I'm sure it will be mostly over with by the time we get out of the hospital. I sure would enjoy going.
