It is raining a great deal in NH these days...just about every day for the last week or so. Mnay people are grumbling about the wet weather, but here are a few positive aspects the rain creates for me:
I am really enjoying the rain, as it is the perfect weather to finish out a school year, the kids are not sweating to death, or whining to get outside. Finals week putt-putts along, and the end beckons to all...
The rain makes my lawn and garden look fantastic, without much labor. The plants are full and green, and the lawn is trying to fill in the brown bald spots created by my hubby (when he was full of passion and poison for ant killing...oops, he burned the lawn!)

I keep thinking about how many people in the world do not have access to clean(?) or fresh water on a daily basis. I am grateful that I can turn on my faucet (upstairs or downstairs) and drink to my belly's contentment.

I like to listen to "The Rain song" by led Zepplin, and take long restful naps.

What are your thoughts on the rain? 'Cause I can't stop the rain...

  1. It's been 100ยบ and humid here in FL. We haven't even had our usual drenching afternoon rains and I honestly miss it. I love those rains.

    I bet your yard is looking fantastic with the daily waterings :)
