Rain at last…

rain at lastOh, glorious precipitation! I am tempted to go out and do a little dance in the puddles.

I never thought I’d be so thankful for a dreary rainy day. But it has been so dry for so long here in Virginia, rain is what we’ve been praying for. I was beginning to wonder if my beautiful east coast home was turning into a dustbowl. My poor yard is parched, making the chore of mowing the few straggling weeds that persist a dust storm. Everyone I know has been suffering with horrible allergies to include my poor cats. (Have you ever heard a cat sneeze? Poor little furballs.)

We’ve been on water rationing for weeks now. Perhaps this will last and we’ll see our reservoirs fill up again. Rain is a good, good thing.
