...the Old Man is Snoring



I'm feeling a little discombobulated today. Perhaps it's due to the wet stuff that is falling from the sky.... it's been such a very long time since we've experienced so much rain all at once that I'm not accustomed to it any more!

It has finally taken to raining here. We got about a quarter of an inch on Tuesday night. The wind was blowing a bit on Wednesday and moved the clouds away, but also blew in another storm sometime during the night. It's been raining ever since. There is now over an inch and a half in the rain gauge. Yippee!

Unfortunately, the forecast is for some cold weather to move in and turn this rain into snow tonight. I bought my bedding plants on Wednesday - tomatoes, peppers and some flowers - but they are currently resting on my dining room table. I'll plant them in pots for the deck after the cold weather moves off again.

I am glad that the garden is in because the cold weather won't have too much effect on it, and the rain will help immensely. Everything is looking very green and clean.

(Blogger is still acting up a little, so there is a totally unrelated photo at the beginning of this post.... but I'm leaving it there because it's cute!)
