57 confirmed deaths as an tornado rips through an elementary school tonigh tin Moore, Oklahoma. Now this was during the daytime also...with known weather report of the next three days being possible for an tornado...so like, why didn't the people with kids stay home and evacuate as the sirens went off... as fast as they could?  Why didn't the city have an underground center for them to go to. Nothing like playing Russian Routlette these days

...also  just now...120 pasenger ship off the coast of Oregon, on fire...coast guard took off in an helicopter with three more rubber boats an have an all out bulletin to any vessel in the area to rush and help assist in evvacuations. Not an good evening so far.

Peggy, on the left hand bottom of the keyboard there is an 'up arrow' that is your capitals key. You should be able to set it so that it automatically puts in a capital letter after a full stop or for a name. Mine also puts punctuation marks in for me i.e I'll. Ignore all of the previous if it's anything other than the most famous make of tablet, because then I don't know Laughing

Peggy, on your Home Screen - Settings > General > Keyboard, then toggle on the switches you want to work for you, then hit the Back icon top left to come out of Settings. I'm on my phone at the moment not the tablet but they work the same more or less. Have a play around in the settings, you can't do any damage. You also should have 90 day free telephone support for help and advice should you get stuck, or I'll help you out.

Good morning...well, having had an huge brown spider crawling up the cutains last night...what could O do but "whack it" with an broom, then I looked it up to see what it meant...and it said death and/or change going on..how so...four interuptions wiht DWTS..comes in live from LA...I said...solar flare or earthquake...let's hope not...then LA announced they were knocked off lines also...so looked it up..big quake over in Russia along the coast. It was an wild evening last night with plenty of no good going on. Slept in this morning. I've lost my cherries and possibly my peaches so far, my green peppers stopped gorwing..not on new leaf on them since I bought them I noticed the other day. Things are getting bushy from all the rain but killing out the produce setting on the plants with the weather. Hubby went out an dosed the cherry leaves in soapy water for the massive bugs on all the new grow that has just poppped up...if I weren't so afraid of spiders..I probably should of transfered rather then whacked away with my broom, but it probably would of killed the spider anyway. I seriously could use an good joke about now. So far I've eaten about four spears of asparagus and one strawberry out of the garden. Showery and windy day here also...we are amoung us lightworkers.... thinking of starting an " prayer chain" on this weather problem here in the USA. It will require "lightworkers" across the whole country...if there's any of us left these days. Have an good day everyone!

I am back briefly...be glad when DWTS comes on tonight. Was doing an bit of "lightwork" today...taking some of the trama out of Oklahoma..but not so much people can't touch upon God's mercy  and say "Thank you" when needed, no specfic religion required...and parental bonding with their children...something so greatly needed in an world of "work" for most parents. To be glad your child is alive and safe and in your arms is an blessing. I checked on mine earlier tonight already. Sometimes not an lot to say..but the thought is there. Namely ..."I care".

A lady in the UK... said why don' tthey move, why do they live in an area known prone to tornadoes...they answered that tonight on the news...the entire town is Government based...either with Fema or with Midwest tornado detection...or with Govt. based manufacturing, or the National Guard for the state.  It's hard to have an good and reliable job in the mid-west area for most people...the Govt. is an big help in providing an livelihood.

Moore, Oklahoma is maybe 30 north of Norman, Oklahoma where the Lawson lady lived I've talk about.  Between her an Moore is an Lake also...and storms often gravitate toward them. Water tends to particualry draw the lightening storms and violent weather. With this number 3 tornado in history locally..maybe more in surrounding areas, I wonder what's underground...if they are on an Ley Line. Iwould have to dig into teh reasearch on the area before I could answer that one. We are not without today an few bright red storms cells here...one was an downpour this afternoon with thunder and ligthtening occuring. I noticed not to far off that last year they installed an emergency town siren for the first time...but it goes to show you how the weather has changed in patterns to where we might need something. While we don't have huge tornadoes, we have had some small ones kind of go through an stir things up in an couple of instances near the Golf Course. Maybe why the new golf course is built between two hills now farther away. Hills break up cloud formations you know. I go now and relax tonight. Be preparedand ready for about anything...wouldn't it be nice if it were  something good? Have an good evening.
