Rainy Day Blues

Published by drmommy at 10:42 pm under My Life

Wow, it feels like it has been raining in our state for 40 days!!  Ok, I’m exaggerating a bit.  We are certainly used to afternoon showers, but it has been raining morning, noon and night.  It is enough to drive a person like me insane.

I love the sunny weather, it gets me motivated to go out and enjoy the day.  When I see the sun shining I am grateful for a beautiful day and feel excited about the adventures it will bring.   The rain is fun up to a point.  My kiddos are now going a bit bonkers.  We have played every board game we own, the kids have colored and drawn to their hearts desire.  We have baked together and developed our menus for the following week.  They have actually cleaned their rooms!!  They have played on the computer and watched many, many movies.  What else is there to do?

We love playing outside in the rain, but the lightning has prevented that from happening.  I know that the rain is needed for the plants and the trees and our rivers, but I feel like I am going to float away.  Honestly, how much more rain can we take.

I’m sorry if I sound like I am complaining, I rarely do that, but I have a bit of cabin fever.  We are all praying for some relief so we can go to the zoo or perhaps the beach.

Perhaps I will feel more motivated tomorrow.  Once I remove my soggy clothes and soak in a warm bath I will feel better.

The Chronicles continue…

    Imagine how Noah felt! LOL ;) Seriously though I know what you mean, rain is wonderful but when you see it day in and day out it can really take it’s toll. Here’s to a sun shiny day for you soon.
