Went to the garden centers and found speedwell and white guara, both of which I've been looking for. Yay. The speedwell have been planted, but the guara has to wait because it's hotter than Hades in the garden.
We're fixing to get a gulley-washing rain any minute. A few minutes ago I thought I heard DD open the garage doors. Nope. It was thunder. Eeek.
Did I tell y'all about DS's unusual encounter yesterday? He and his husband went for a walk in a park close to their house and saw a lady lying on the ground under a park bench...probably under to escape the rain Wednesday night. As they walked past her, they felt uneasy and stepped back to have another look. It turned out that she was dead

.
They called 911 and waited for the paramedics. When the ambulance got there, it was confirmed that she had died, and they were told they could leave.
A few hours later, DS got a call from the police tearing him a new one for not staying "at the scene" and was told that he "should have known better." What?He should have known better based on what? His previous experience of regularly happening upon dead bodies in a park? He told the officer that he didn't really have any information but that if the officer wanted to stop by, he'd answer any questions that he could. Holy cow! The officer started yelling that he didn't "have time" to be chasing people down (cop shop about a mile away!), blah, blah, blah. DS got tired of the harangue, thanked the cop for calling and hung up. So much for being a concerned citizen.
Anyway, he said that when they realized the lady was dead, they had to choke back tears
