After getting 2.4″ of rain the other night, another 1.40″ last night seemed like plenty. However, it’s raining right now and sounds like it’s going to be raining, at least off and on, until tomorrow. So…all the rain we’ve been needing for so long is finally here. But all in one fell swoop. Not good, Mother Nature. Not good.

Evidently the power went off at some point during the night because all of the miserable digital clocks are blinking like mad. Plus the fact that this was the only morning, seriously, the only morning I had to be up at a certain time as I have an early morning appointment to attend to. Go figure.  I usually don’t say this, but thank goodness for the cat being insistent on it being breakfast time, and I woke up in time to tend to  everything. But just barely, so I’m off and away, out into the rain. But at least awake.
