Too much damn rain.

I love the rainy season as much as the next person who lives in an arid region. The ginormous storms moving through my area are killing me though. I'm thoroughly sick of it. The fact that the barometric pressure is making my head hurt really has nothing to do with it.

As it happens, it rained so much over the weekend that many farmers will have to reseed (if they ever see dry skies that is).

Pfft.

In other entirely unrelated news, I've got numerous packets of flower and vegetable seeds burning a hole in my gardening apron pocket just waiting to be planted. Any time now mother nature, any time.

On a plus side, I've been getting a lot of baking done lately. Lots of new recipes to try. Anyone ever watched Laura Vitale on Youtube? Check her out if you haven't already. Sunday I made her pancake muffins. So yummy, and I love the batter she uses. The first time I've ever made pancakes from scratch and actually loved the flavor. Next up is lowfat oatmeal chocolate chip cookies and honey wheat bread.

Okay, time to log off again before I lose power. Wish me luck, and drier weather.

My poor, rain-hating pup agrees with you and wants dry skies.

Ha! My last dog was like that. Poor little thing. I'm fortunate my cat is indoor, or I'd probably be putting a litter box on the covered porch for her. Thankfully, it's dried up some today. But it seems to come and go. So far in the last week, we don't get more than a few hours at a time to dry out. Pfft. Here's hoping for even more drier weather!
