'scuse me while i kiss the sky



don't faint ---but it rained last night. a really good rain, the kind that brought out lula mae (our resident opossum) to climb the trellis at our window to get out of the storm. we both looked at each other through the blinds and said 'hellz yeah!'

oh, and get this, the forecast is enough to make me fire up the kettle and promise a stellar teaparty when the kids get home.

the summer is so old and if this is how life post-laborday wants to act, honey, i will gladly pack up the white shoes until spring.

so, 'scuse me while i kiss the sky.

I AM SO JEALOUS! We were promised some rain from a Mexican storm somewhere. And we were cheated! Kiss the sky for me, too :-)

Ah send some rain this way, at this rate we won't see any until the next rainy season in January and we DO rain here. :(

On the other hand I'm happy to see 60s and 80s this week. :) Good luck on those deadlines.

I'm not ready to say goodbye to summer yet! It just started a week ago! *Sob*

I will gladly send our rain to anyone who wants it.

PS - I love that you have gumballs in your vitamin bowl. You're such a ray of sunshine. :)
