Rain

You would think we're now in the Pacific Northwest.
A beautiful, warm weekend lent itself to a rainstorm that has lasted, and lasted, and lasted. It's been raining all week now.
We went to the zoo on Monday (holiday) and trudged through the showers there.
It's still raining now, Thursday night.
I don't know how much more water my backyard can hold.
It's supposed to continue all weekend. A whole week of rain.
It's cold, too! Sorry for those in really cold climates . . . 47 degrees is arctic for me.
Today there was even thunder and lightning, and a bit of hail.
That's always fun. I love a good storm . . . as long as it stays on the outside of my house. I don't need anymore spots on my ceilings.

Wow! That's rough. While we were having a drought last year, Lisa was rowing her boys to school -with
over 30 days of straight rain!yikes
She teases me that **I** don't need
a "mudroom" (designed in our plans we didn't build) I really need a
"dust" room!! She needs the mudroom
Hope you don't float away ;)
