Woo Hoo! It's Raining!!

August 10, 2016

Good morning.  I'm off to a late start this morning because I was able to sleep during the night, and this morning I kept right on sleeping.  Mmmm, it felt good!  While I was sleeping, the rains came, thank goodness, and it is still raining.  You can almost hear the grass and the plants sighing with relief.  We really need this rain.

Well, it's countdown time till daughter Audrey is here.  I hope all these air travel delays with Delta Airlines does not hamper her flight.  I don't usually book with Delta, but it was the only flight here from Virginia we could find.  She should be arriving this Sunday.  I can hardly wait.

Yesterday morning, Pogo and I sat out on the porch and enjoyed the breezes.  While I drank my coffee, Pogo was busy checking to make sure that no dangerous critters were lurking, and then he took a well deserved nap.

I am so glad we have our porch.  My Pogo just loves being out there.  Sometimes I have to go out and pick him up and carry him indoors because he doesn't always want to come back inside. I don't blame him though.  Except for when it is super hot, it is really nice out on the porch.

Yesterday, Cliff was here, painting the front porch to the house.  He got most of finished, but then we ran out of paint.  I'll have to go back to Home Depot an pick up more paint. 

***I'm back.  Pogo and I went out into the main part of the house to help one of the dwarfs, and we stayed long enough to enjoy a grilled cheese sandwich and some nice conversation.  I love grilled cheese sandwiches, but they taste oh so much better when someone else makes them.  Even Pogo had a little bit of my sandwich.

For a little while, the rain had stopped, but now it is raining again, thank goodness.  We could use a day of rain every week.  All our reservoirs are way down and most all our towns and cities have water restrictions.

Now it's time for me to get busy and do a few things around here.  I'm trying to go through all my clothes and get rid of whatever I don't wear anymore.  Blankets too.  Seems Pogo and I have built up our blanket collection to the bursting point.  It's time to give some of them away.  So,  till tomorrow, Y'all have a wonderful day.

Hugs, Edna B.
