I love the rain and love it when it rains. Now a days we experience rain almost everyday. Some of you want to play in the rain , stay in bed and sleep , eat a lot, wash your car, go to the beach, clean the house.. Well for me I love cleaning the car when it rains then stay a while till I am all soaked up then after that drink a hot coffee and then take a nap or watch a good movie. how about you what do love to do when it rains and you are at your home...

hi! the rain... hmmnnn it has its good moments. i remember when i was a kid, we would stay out in the rain and play and make paper boats and have a race. i seldom do that anymore, but when i do, i still have fun with my nephews and nieces. when at home and it's raining, i would want to stay indoors and cuddle with a hot mug of hot chocolate or cocoa. but it depends on the company i'm keeping. with kids, i guess they would ask me to play board games with them and prepare a snack too. with men, they'd ask me to play cards and prepare a snack for them too. with women, they'd ask me to chat with them while i give them massages until all of them has fallen asleep on me after the massage. -lol- when i'm with my own company, i'll probably do the net thing with that scalding hot chocolate in my other table. :)

Your bringing back old memories of my childhood my friend. I used to do that too when I was a kid making paper boats and racing it with my friends hahaha those days but now a days the young ones dont have time for this anymore they rather watch their favorite cartoons or play in the net like my nephew does. I do love a hot coffee when it rains and never had a chance to be with any of my friends when it rains. I usually stayed at home with my family. You on the other hand had lots of things going on with your group of friends. hmmmm When they sleep who then would massage you .... Your should take turns with the massage you know that would be fair lol. Well the guys really do love to play with cards let them cook sometimes and you play lol.... I think that would be a good idea dont you think so?

we try to teach the kids in the family some games we used to play when we were little, telling them stories of our childhood. they get interested enough to try it and they liked it. but sadly cartoon network, disney channel and and internet games still have the upper hand. hahaha yeah, people would think i got the shorter end of the stick when my sisters get the massage and nobody to give me one. actually, since i'm very ticklish, i don't ask one in the first place. i only play with my brothers if they need to make up a fourth or third player whichever is needed in the game they are playing. :)

Play in rain is the best thing to do in first rain after so many days but it would be good idea to stay in house if it is raining for like every day. I would like to go cycling if it rains. I love getting wet in rain!

Ooooo! Raing in beach, well, I have had experiences of swiming in a river when it was raining, of course our clothes at the bank also got wet but the experience of swiming when you get water from both sides is awesome. can't forget those moments.

Go to the beach??? Who would want to go to the beach when it is raining? You wash your car in the rain. Is that to save water??? I would rather watch a good movie. Or read a book. Or study. I used to like to walk in the woods. Maybe that would be the same as walking on the beach. But, in the woods (forest) everything smells so good. Have not done that in a long time. So, see you later. Take care, have a nice day!

not really go to the beach when you are in the beach and it's raining it adds more fun for me double purpose while playing in the rain i wash my car and at the same time it does save water well if I feel like being lazy i dont go out just have a cup of coffee and do something in the net or sleep.

Seeing as how I'm not a great fan of the rain...my girlfriend would probably say that: "When it rains, he likes to complain." And she'd be correct in that statement. As much as I know how much the rain does for good old mother earth...all I can say is: "Good for you. Now go and rain somewhere's else please!" ...."AND BRING ME BACK MT SUNSHINE WHILE YOU'RE AT IT!" "Thank you." (-smile-) cdrxo

When it is raining outside I prefer to stay inside where it is nice and warm. I like to paint, write, surf the internet to play with the pets. I used to work as a kind of nurse and I had to visit patients in their homes. I didn't have a car, so I always went by bike. The weather was often rainy and I then got soaking wet and cold. I liked the job as such, but I don't miss biking in the rain for many hours. When it is raining I am usually grateful that I don't have to work in the rain any more. I enjoy working in front of the computer instead

I just want to stay home and watch movies. Nothing else. I won't do anything outdoor while it is raining. I don't want to get myself soaked up, because I might get sick after that. I rather stay home and do my own things, such as browsing the itnernet or listening to music.

I love to watch it from a window and smell the earth getting wet, the feeling brings back childhood memories of being couped up inside, my mom cooking chicken noodle soup and the going outside and inspecting how the world has changed after the rain. Sometimes I wish I could go and play again in the rain like a kid, but then again there's flu...and a 25 year old man me frolicking in the rain aint a nice sight to see... :)

It depends. But often when it rains and I am at home, I usually just stay in bed and enjoy the coolness of what the rain brings. There are times that I do go out and bath in the rain, but its not very often.

Well yeah it can be boring too if I do it all the time , it really depends on the mood. If I fell like playing in the rain then I will do just that but if I fell lazy i sleep all day

Usually I complain. I'm a sunshine kinda gal! I don't just like the sun, I NEED the sun! I get down when it rains. My energy level is somehow directly linked to the barometric pressure. When I see the barometric pressure is going down, my energy takes a dump. You could actually predict rain by my energy level. It's weird. Being an avid gardener, I count on SOME rain but not when it overdoes it, like it has been doing all this month. We've had over 6 inches of rain so far in April and it's still raining! My birthday is in April and it never fails... it ALWAYS rains on my birthday. Enough already! I WANT SUNSHINE!!!

When it rains i am soo happy (mosto f the time) because i can just spend time with my family. I also like to just watch a good movie or play on my computer. But a mojor reason for loving the rain is my dad is a workiholic as in there is something wrong with our back yard (even though we were voted best of the month) anyways when he likes to work on the back yard and it rains that gives me a good excuse to have to work. Have a good day my felow mylotters!

I love listening to rain and thunderstorms for some reason it can be relaxing. On a rainy day I enjoy staying home and catching up on housework, and I also like to watch some good movies or read a good book all in all rainy days are very relaxing days.

most of the times it is relaxing if you only stay at home but if you have some errands to go then it would be a hindrance to me..... When it rains i got the chance to relax and do things that I haven done since I was a kid but not always depends on my mood.

During the day I neither like nor dislike the rain, I'm indifferent. However, I like it when it rains at night. While I'm lying in bed and I can hear the rain falling on the roof and tapping on the window. It's somehow very relaxing and helps put me to sleep.

Well for me if I dont have anywhere to go on that day and it rains , then I would love it but if I am going to a particular place then it rains then I hate it. yeah it's really relaxing to hear the rain fall at night.Makes me want to sleep longer.

If it is raining here, I like to cuddle up under a blanket and listen to it rain or watch it rain. My boyfriend and I sat outside last night talking and cuddling under a blanket until it got too cold for both of us.

When it rains, I like to stay at home and watch TV while drinking hot chocolate. I like staying at home when it rains specially if it is rainy season and it rains for days. Here in the Philippines, we have only two seasons, dry season and rainy season. It supposed to be summer now here in the Philippines but it seems like rainy season come too early.

I love the rain for the most part. The only time I dont really like it is when I have to take the kids to school or pick them up...then its just aggravating. lol. I usually do cleaning around the house with the kids when its raining. Or I let them play in the rain if it isnt too cold. Other than that I just chill out and do much of nothing. I used to clean the car whenever it rained but since I have the baby running around now I cant leave him in by himself while I do it. It just depends on what I feel like doing really.

yeah taking the kids to school and picking them up after school if it rains is aggravating indeed. Well kids do enjoy the rain and the thing is they dont want to stop if till the rain stop too. lol even grownups are like that too.
