Rainy Tuesday


I woke up at 6:00am to the sound of thunder. Actually, I was shaken awake as thunder shook my little house. So much for 20% chance for rain. *grin* Gotta love those little weathermen. I'd hate to have that job.

It's been raining all morning. Driving was fun this morning as I'm sure there was about an inch of water on the highway. I saw no less than three wrecks. Why do people drive like idiots in the rain? The first HARD rain we've had this "fall" and people think they can drive like normal.

Dropping Munchkin off at school was HILARIOUS. Well, it is now. Then it most certainly wasn't funny - to either of us. Munchkin was SO excited about using her Disney Princess umbrella. The umbrella was a very cute accessory but what she REALLY needed were some Disney Princess Waders! After about 90 seconds getting her back wet, she wanted me to pick her up and carry her. So, here I am with her umbrella, my umbrella AND a soaking wet Munchkin in my arms. We had to cross what felt like the River Jordan to get into the school so we were both soaked through. But, once she was inside, she looked at me and said, "that wasn't so bad!"

I think this weekend we are going shopping for a rain coat and boots - for BOTH of us!

  1. Rain, I hate cold rain. I think I almost prefer the snow that is heading our way tonight more than cold rain...

    Royce works for Clear Channel. In accounting. Used to work closely with payroll.

    Believe me. Those little weathermen get paid a LOT OF MONEY to give us the wrong information every day. I'd love to have that job. Just read the script, no real responsibility...and take home the fat paycheck!!

    BTW - we had a rainy day too. We had the windows and doors open all day. It was FANTABULOUS!
