Not a nice sunny Sunday for us around here, it is raining cats and dogs and it is very windy too. Fortunately, it is not too cold. My forsythias and daffodils are all out showing their bright yellow color. Lovely to see them in the rain. I guess, today I will be doing some reading and maybe some cupboard organizing but only if I feel like it, it is not an emergency.

Oh I'd love for it to rain cats and dogs here . . . we are bone dry already. I'll bet your flowers look so lovely there. Enjoy the rest of weekend whatever you do!

We had some rain here too but it has since stopped. Hoping the weather is nicer here today and for you as well. I have some things to get done also today but I am not awake much yet.

@marlina It finally stopped last night again. There is no chance for more rain in the coming week which is good. Finally got some weeds sprayed.

We also had rain both Sunday and this morning, a bit of wind, but not too strong or cold. We needed the rain so it was good.

We had rain all day Saturday but on Sunday it was beautiful. Pretty went out and mowed the rest of the back yard. (We bought an electric lawn mower last year to replace our gas mower. The electric mower has to be recharged three times to mow the entire yard.) I miss my spring flowers from the other house. We don't have anything here that blooms in the spring.

@marlina It's a lot bigger than the yard at the other house. We lived on a corner lot at the other house. This yard is between two other yards but it is deep. And there are lots of trees in this yard. We put flowers in last year but they won't bloom until fall.

It's sunny here right now. Rained quite a bit last night. I should check the radar. Have a good day.

It turned out to be a much nicer day today than yesterday, but it is a bit cooler than I would prefer, and way too windy. But at least the sun is shining. I can go with that.

@marlina Yes for now it is welcomed. But a weather disturbance has been seen entering the country and will cause massive rains.

We got a little of that rain but not much. It was enough to cause the hyacinths to lay down their heads. They're still alive but no longer perky. I love the images you find to go with your posts here.

Good Morning! It rained cats and dogs here last night. I was glad it wasn't raining this morning so I could go walk. We have a flower that blooms each year. I am not sure what it is but it's red with a yellow middle. It blooms in the morning and closes up in the evening.
