A Rainy Morning

I thought this picture from Pixabay was so cute. It's a rainy start to the day this morning. Just a steady rainfall with no thunder or lightning. I would normally enjoy these days but my brother has to go out of town again today and I worry about him driving in the rain. Not because of him but other drivers. Once I know he is there, I will feel better. I received my recliner yesterday and I love it! It's electric which is very nice and it has a USB port. I'm very happy with it. It's big like the other recliner because it has to be big enough for Daisy to lay beside me. She seems to like it too. I will take a picture soon so you can see it. As usual, I don't have much planned today. I may work on my jewelry again today. I'm looking forward to my brother and I taking a daycation in his new car. I haven't been in it yet. I would really love to stay somewhere overnight but I don't dare do that with the way things are. We are going to talk about it this weekend, so we can go next weekend. I hope everyone has a wonderful and safe day today!

I wouldn't stay anywhere either. We wouldn't even eat or sleep in our son's new beach house. He feels the same way. Enjoy your new recliner!

I'm just too afraid to stay in a hotel. I can't fathom the idea of sleeping in a bed or using the bathroom when somebody else could have stayed there and had the virus. It's just too scary. If we do go somewhere, it will only be for a day, and we will probably bring out on food and have a picnic.

Yes, it is a blessing because we have really needed the rain. I just wish it would have cooled things off some. I'm glad you got rain too.

I totally agree with you . I feel the same way about snow. I don't mind it now that I am retired. I hated it when I had to drive in it.

A recliner with a USB port. It boggles the mind. I would love to see pictures of your jewelry.

I know, right? I haven't used the USB port yet but I'm sure I will. I'm just playing around with ideas with my jewelry. As soon as I make something I like, I will post pictures.

@moffittjc I am trying to slowly break it in, so I sit on a different side each day. In the old chair Daisy was used to laying on the left side. It messes with her mind when I sit on the left side and make her get on the right side . Last night she got in my lap and was trying to make me scoot over, so she could lay on that side. As you can tell, she doesn't like change.

Enjoy your new recliner. Does it have a battery backup? My next recliner will because I have gotten stuck in it when the power goes out! :-) Hope your brother has a safe trip.

That is a cute picture, and I can relate because we had some rain and storms thru the night last night. This morning is quite humid and overcast, no sunshine so far. I'm glad that the new recliner has been delivered and you are enjoying it. That should help you relax.

@simone10 That is too bad that it stresses her out so much. I hope that, for her sake as well as for yours, there isn't any thunder for a while again.

@Juliaacv thanks, I hope there isn't either. She is the first dog I've ever noticed that shed more when stressed. I never noticed Bella doing that. Maybe it's just a Daisy thing.

We had almost 3 days of scattered thunderstorms and I feel so bad for Daisy. She instantly runs and hides as soon as she hears thunder. She's been a nervous wreck for 3 days. For some reason, when she gets nervous, she sheds a lot...and I mean a lot, by the handfuls. And, she is a short haired dog. One day when she got out of my chair, I gathered enough hair to form a baseball. She doesn't shed like this normally, only when she is scared or nervous.
