Sunday

There was a change in the weather overnight, cooler with rain, but it didn't last very long and by this afternoon it was hot and sunny again.

And Oklahoma seems to be staying hot for the foreseeable future, sandwiched there between 101 in Wichita,Kansas and 99 in Dallas.

I went to Emmanuel this morning, where things are getting back to normal with two services at 8.00 and 10.30.   The Wednesday meal will start again when the children go back to school on the 19th.

So I have just been crocheting and watching television, which is mainly at the moment about Hilary Clinton dropping in the polls.   What with e-mails and servers she has been reluctant to hand over, Benghazi she doesn't want to talk about, she now has problems with donations and campaign funds - one of which is taxable and the other isn't, and therein lies the problem.

She has been maintaining an incredible façade of serenity, of   "I have nothing at all to worry about, my time has come, I will be the first woman President".    But there is unrest and trouble brewing.

It has been reported that Joe Biden, the Vice President, has been asked to consider running.   It is not a good time for him, his son's death is still very recent.   Apparently though, before he died he encouraged his father to think of running.

There are now 17 candidates in the race, all having a turn on the interview programmes.   Also there doesn't seem any to be any restrictions here on party political broadcasts, they seem able to buy as much air time as they want, so they are all appearing among the adverts, getting their messages across.

I haven't seen very much of Bruce and Rosalyn lately.  They have been looking for a second home about 80 miles away, so that Rosalyn's grandson can go to a much better school than in Shawnee.
