More Rain!

Tammy Ames via PictureQuotes.com

It looks like we have today and tomorrow with lots of rain, and then it settles down for a bit!

I have built a whole routine out of taking our dog, Molly out, first thing in the morning and last thing at night before bed (other times during the day she goes out to play, sniff, and do dogly things on her own without supervision or time limits) – with the rain that has been with us for weeks now. My umbrella hangs on one hook with her leash. My jacket hangs on another hook. We have the routine down pat.

Now that we do, the weather will probably tip over into summer and the rains will be few and far between.

It amazes me that it can be sunny and warm enough we talk about turning on the air conditioner, and then a bit later raining like it has saved it up for MONTHS, pouring down with hail, lightning, gusty winds, and flying hairballs.

I’m sad that the weather forced the scrubbing of the space launch today, but we’ll be at the TV on Saturday at 3:22, fingers crossed.

Stay dry.

Another Beautiful Rain Gif

We were impressed when we went to town today that most of the creeks were full-to-overflowing.  I remember one year when the road that goes into town had water almost up to the road itself! It made me suck in my breath – as if doing that would help us stay on the road. Today it wasn’t nearly that high, since the town has done some clean-out of creeks that go through it.

The rain is supposed to stop by sometime tomorrow, and I’m ready for some nice sunshine. I’m happy to say that we dodged the bullet on getting ice or snow this time.

One thing I’ve had to add to my to-do list today is giving Molly (our schnauzer/cocker spaniel mix) a bath. While she was out, she found a super-interesting hole to stick her entire nose in. She now has a mostly brown face and paws, so into the kitchen sink she goes!
