Yes, it's TRUE! After 324 straight days of no rain, we finally got dumped on last night. All I could do was race around taking pictures of the rain, laughing hysterically and bawling my eyes out, for joy.
I'm not sure if the rain came back from Seattle with me or if it was the passing of Mr. Snooty's closest living Aunt. Perhaps it was a little of both. It's been a rough week with all the family in town for the funeral, attending the viewing, making tons of finger sandwiches, the graveside service, the church service, and the loss of a lovely family member we will sorely miss.
Hopefully, I can get back into blogging when the dust finally settles. It's been a very long week.

Can I Just Say Whew?
After driving the receptionist at the doctor's office crazy all morning, they were finally able to give me the information I was calling to bug them about. I'm. Clean. As in Good. To. Go. WheW!
There is nothing like a reprieve from death to perk someone up a bit. Now that I'm done with that, I still need to go have a mammagram and a Pap smear, then I'll really be good to go. For at least a few years.
We had the most wonderful downpour of rain last night. It started around 10:00 PM, so I raced around the house grabbing plants to take them outside for a thorough watering. Of course, if I had a greenhouse I wouldn't have to bring them all inside for the winter, but I don't. Needless to say, they tend to get neglected when in the house during cold months. As a matter of fact, some of the plants might not make it, but the rain certainly helped the ones it could.
I am so ready for Spring. I haven't even gone skiing yet this year, but it doesn't look like I'm going to get to go. There isn't enough snow in Ruidoso, New Mexico this year. Since I go alone, I don't want to drive as far as Taos. I didn't mind the drive back when the kids went with me, but I find that I just don't like to go that far when I'm alone. Ski Apache has been able to make snow, but only about 55% of
the mountain is even open, which means it's mostly beginner trails open. To me, that just isn't worth the money or effort. So, like I said, I'm ready for Spring.
