This Cost Me My Power!

Spring time storms here in KS can be...well frustrating to say the least! Now I love a good rainy, stay on the couch watching movies kind of day but that isn't achievable when these Spring time storms steal your electricity! I honestly think we have had more power outages out here in the country than I had my whole city life!! The longest we've gone without was 2 days, which obviously isn't the end of the world unless of course your like me and have freezer's full of yummy home grown meat! So tonight as these storms rolled through and I was nestled away watching my DVR'd *Bachelorette* it happened...Yep the storm stole my power! I was not a happy camper! I mean I am a night owl for goodness sakes! What the heck am I gonna do in the dark?! Then to top it all of the Hubby is out of town working! But he had power...

So this is what I did...

I watched a pretty awesome lightening show! And just shortly after the first round ended 3 hours later the power came back on!! However it is still storming like crazy! Not sure how J is even gonna make it out on these roads when the sun comes up!

Horsey Butts?!?!

Here in our neck of the woods we are working on staying afloat! Mild temperatures and lots of rain have taken over our last few weeks. I always love Spring for the showers it brings!! However I think my horsey's might just be getting tired of it...

Shortly before one of our storms last week I was on the hunt to find my 3 young mischief's...Had myself a little heart failure when I realized they weren't out in the pasture anywhere!



Lo and behold they had crammed themselves into the small side of the barn they have! I promise this really only houses 1 full sized horse comfortably!!



I hollered at them and Bubba pops out like *who me*?!






Here was the start of some rotating clouds over our place!
