More On Rain

Blog post #458 of 365

It rained today. I mean really rained. The wind blew and the waterworks fell from the sky. All morning it was beautiful then cleared up. I went out to run a few errands. It began to sprinkle. I went five places and even walking through a very large parking lot barely got wet. Then on my last stop it came down in sheets! I mean buckets of rain. I got soaked. I loved it. I was able to go to all of the places I needed to go without much hassle and didn't get uncomfortable until after I returned home.

The one thing I discovered it rain helps my allergies. It cleans the smells that irritate out or the air! What a secondary blessing.

We need a lot more rain. I hope and pray it comes because drought it awful. It gives the water companies a reason to raise the rates that they never have to bring down again. Drought means fire season will be bad. We don't need to burn again and if we do we need a way to safely douse it!

Annoyed Today

Blog post #457 of 365

Today I ham crushed by things out of my control. Things like death, loss, red tape, hoops to jump through and just plain stupid stuff.

May tomorrow bring the rain we need and relief from the stuff that annoyed me all day today.

They are talking about some heavy rain coming in. I hope they are right. We need rain. I love rain.

It rained this morning for half a minute. Okay maybe three minutes but it didn't even measure in the rain gauges. Yes I have rain gauges. I am a total geeky nerd girl.

Olympic Based Ads

Blog post #452 of 365

There have been a ton of Olympic based ads. Here are a few...

 Like athletes really eat McDonald's. Maybe once here and there but official sponsors?

That one was interesting.
But I love this one.

  Good Job United. Well rounded, well represented.

 Behind every big moment, there are lots of little ones... Precious. Not planning to invest but whatever.

 This one is so creative.

 There were tons of them but I only shared a few...
