Welcome back!

Yes, did I mention the rain?

Well, a humid atmosphere is supposed to be good for the complexion. So….Texas must be full of people with good complexions, right? No need to look for the best acne treatment, no need for the cover-up makeup to cover zits.

Well, maybe. All of the heat means that not only is the weather humid, but it is also hot. Maybe I should say STEAMY and get done with it. Steamy means that people like me will sweat.

Did you know that in the past, people would say that men sweat, and women glow? I guess that they never saw me in action. I could make a horse get embarrassed since it doesn’t sweat as much.

Yes, clouds in the sky, rain drops falling….

IT IS SOGGY OUTSIDE.

I have heard that the celebrations will go on anyway. Soggy people ahoy!

Well….the plants do need the rain.

Do you remember the song ? Yes, that title, that song.

Well, we have been having rain here, the creek is up, the clouds are now gone.

AND I CAN SEE CLEARLY NOW, the rain is gone. snicker, snort I am being a smart alec here. What else is new? Most of the allergens are gone from the atmosphere, and my breathing is easier.

Don’t worry - be happy. Oh yeah, that’s another song isn’t it?

It is raining right now., The lightning was oing on earlier so had to turn everything off. No fun.

Went out and got soggy. At least I didn’t ge the carpet soggy when I came it. If it was tile flooring, it would be easier to clean up, but this apartment has carpeting right near the front door.

some of the apartments are without power right now. The electric company is circling the block trying to figure out where the interruption is so they can fix it. Meanwhile, people are not happy. We are one of the few that have not lost power this time. That’s cool, except for the fact that we had to turn everything off because of the lightning. Oh well, at least we are dry.

If you live in Central Texas, you know that the title of this article is WAY understated. We got rain, then more rain, then it down poured.

Some areas ended up getting flooded. Salado Texas had quite a problem, but Thank God, no one got hurt. The town is open again. The rain has gone down stream. I hope that it does not cause problems to who ever gets the water next.

It is said on the TV, if you do not like the weather, just wait and it will change. YUP

Have you ever heard those rolling boom boxes that are called cars? You can hear them a block or so away. I always wonder how the occupants keep from losing their hearing.

This ain’t about that.

We just went through a lightning storm that kept the sky lit for miles around. We were blessed that no lightning bolts hit near us. The rattle and boom went on for hours. I was so tired, believe it or not, that I slept through it all. My husband told me about it later.

He also told me that we had been under a tornado watch at the same time. It didn’t happen. I slept, the world around my town got wet. It happens.

That might not seem very news-worthy. Our area has been having trouble with a lack of rain.

When I got up today and saw the wet sidewalks, I felt joy and happiness. It wasn’t much rain, but every little bit does help.

I heard on the news about people who had been hit with bad storms and tornadoes. I am thankful that those bad storms by-passed us. I just wish that people had not been hurt by them. Those victims need food, medicine, clothes, and shelter. In one town alone, over 300 homes were blasted off the face of the earth. Mena, Arkansas was one of those places that hit so hard. Arkansas is a state that does not have a lot of resources itself. Those people need help.

It is ‘Black Friday’, and it is raining. I am so glad that we won’t be going out shopping.

My mother-in-law called and said that she ‘needed’ to go to WalMart. My first thought was YUK. I mean today should make that place a mad house. I do not want any part of that situation. My second thought was. why didn’t she want to go earlier this week when I asked? I do not know.

Then it started to rain….wheeeee ! Mom does not like the rain. So, it is raining and I am staying home. Besides, our car needed to be washed anyway.

Yup, it is the blabby broad. My spell check tried to tall me that the word - blabby - was supposed to be flabby. Either one works. *snicker*

Today I’ve been to the grocery store, got a little food for a bit of money, got soggy from the rain. It finally rained ! We’ve been in a dry spell that has left the grass sounding like potato chips when you walk on it. Our car got washed, you know the rain did it. If we took it to a car wash, the neighbors would be stunned, the car would be too.

The price of gas is going down a little. It is under 3.60 a gallon here in this part of Texas right now. I still think that the gas companies are gouging the public and should be up on charges, though. I have no idea why the executives would be getting such high wages for doing a lousy job. Although, now that I think on it, the gas companies are reporting a great deal of profit right now. The rest of us sure aren’t.

Got some tomatoes for 1.29 lb. They won’t last long in this house. They are eaten almost as soon as they are gotten. I’ve been having muscle cramps, so got some canned milk for the calcium.

At the very least we got out of the house, breathed some outside air, got wet, and saw some traffic. Another day in the life of….:)
