These are duck days! As I wrote on my blog yesterday, I was planning on smoking through one of my books and a few stitches today. Ya, right. Who knew that the rainfall would end up being 4.6 inches with a lot of wind in yesterday’s late afternoon and evening.
The saving grace was that the carpet had not been replaced as yet in the porch. Dennis was in and out during the rains and he said it was like opening one patio door to let the rain runs out of the opposite door.
This morning was fairly cool so I put on my old shoes and began taking the mud off of the patio. Our whole yard is so water logged, it can’t help but back up. As the water is absorbed the yuck remains. When Dennis and I were done, I went to the driveway and hosed myself off from the knees on down, toweled off, put on dry shoes and called it a good day. It is inconvenient to have to clean up after a rain, but I can do it many many times as long as I don’t have building damage or have trees that have been busted to pieces.
Tomorrow is another day and I look forward to it and everyone who the good Lord allows.
