Rain, Rain, Go away...

I'm on my way! I'll bring the truck so we can fit more than one barrel in the back! It's been so darned dry here, that my roses are constantly screaming at me that they are thirsty. But it's so hot out even in the evenings that it's hard to even think about going outside.

lol I am happy with the rain right now. Of course, my kids don't start school until next week so I bet my story will change by then if it doesn't stop. I am in PA and in my area we needed this rain badly. Plus, we just bought this house last winter and did all kinds of landscaping this summer and it was my job to make sure the plants are watered everynight so they don't die on us being first year planted. I love rain days because that means I don't have to mess with them. hehe

Where you live has been having The Mother of all rainstorms and flooding has displaced thousands of people... it certainly seems like a repeat of a disaster flick out there every couple of years, you are a real trooper for hanginf in there, and I hope that you and yours will make it through this one OK! :) Here in PA., we need the rain, and so I'm working up one of my famous rain chants, hopefully it will attract the rain and cool weather from your region over to here! :)

I agree with you Im sick of this dam rain!LOL At least today it didnt rain but the sun didnt show its face either. We had 5 straight days of it. Now they are saying the weekend is going to be a hot one. Just great hot and humid is lovely.

Here in the UK the weather has been dreadful this summer. Torrential rains more like a monsoon than a summer shower, wide-spread flooding and millions of pounds of damage to property and ruined towns and villages. Sorry hun, you can keep your rain, I think we have more than enough of our own :-)

please send the rain my way :-) seriously, i live in southern ontario and our grass is so brown, i dont think we have had a good rainfall since may! but its sposed to rain all weekend which is good in some ways but not so much in others...my kids start school after labor day and we wanted to go mini golfing on the weekend :-)

i would really want some of your rain to be transported to here in australia... :-) we are experiencing severe drought this year that the farmers are the ones who suffer the most as their plants are dying... as the result, the price of fruits and vegetables here increase significantly and stage 3a water restrictions are in place now across melbourne... also, our water bill will be increased by more than double because the government are planning to build a desalination plant to overcome the drought problem... so we can really use some of your rain here... but not too much please... :-)

I live right below you in Missouri. Bring us some lol. We seem to just miss the rain, it either goes north or south. No storms, just some rain. Right now there are some storms in the NE corner of my state and I can see a lot in your area. Hope you see some sunny skies soon and enjoy some good weather outside.

lol.. well i am on my way - save some for me. Is it still raining there? are the kids okay? keeping my fingers crossed and praying for you all..

I agree about it going away. We've had more rain in the last five days than we did in the last 3 months. Now we are forecast for 2 to 4 inches on Thursday also. Ugghh. My garden is almost done so I don't need this much rain. HAHAHAHA!!! We had 6 out of the last 7 days raining. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

we live in the midwest and usually in august our grass is very brown and not needing to be cut... now with all of this rain, we have to cut every week, sometimes twice a week.

Thanks but its enough rain here. It is still raining here and i think and also the weather department says that it will still rain here and so here there is enough rain here and facing the same problem with excess rain.

I agree with you and wish the rain would go away for awhile . We haven't had much summer at all in our area and have so much rain and then the thunderstorms all night . I love summer and love to take the children outside but often it is raining or has just stopped and when the sun comes out it is just too late in the day to take them out because their are other things around the house that need to be done . I also love to hang my clothes out on the line and am getting really tired of taking the time to hang them out only to have it rain and soak them all before I they get a chance to dry and then I have to chuch them in the dryer .

There are places which are deserted and desperately need rain. consider yourself lucky that there u get to see the rains. Be happy when it is raining. Treat yourself with hot tea and snacks and enjoy the rain Coz Once summer u will crave for the rains. so be happy.

I too am happy about all the rain we have had the last few days as it has really cooled things off here and feels so much better out. Plus I do not have to go out and water my new bushes since the rain is taking care of that. We have had a dry summer to this point so we needed the rain. Thanks for keeping those rain barrels full. I will come by sometime in the future. LOL

I'm afraid I have to decline your offer Crematee, on the grounds that we have blustery winds, plenty of rain and it's turned ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh, so cold. It's like the end of October here, in the U.K. So, all I can do is to join you in saying, "Rain, rain, go away... don't come back another day!" lol. Brightest Blessings.

There has been a lot of rain and flooding in my area too and enough is enough. I can't stand when it rains, it seems to just ruin all your plans to do anything.

Oh please send me some with DHL Express to Sicily, Italy and I'll send you some sunshine with heat wave added in for good measure to help you get rid of the wetness. It has been 100° here today, way too hot and everyone is getting tired of the hot weather now. So let's happily exchange

wishing the best to the americans. love, apple.

rain rain go away come again another day........... because its nice
