Every Storm (Runs Out Of Rain)

I'm not sure how many of you watch the news or look into Canada's weather but we're currently getting hit with a ton of rain! There are a bunch of small towns where people are being evacuated because there's so much rain that all creeks, streams, and rivers are getting so high that they're threatening peoples homes. It's not safe out there at all. Some places were to get 150mm of rain or more. It's unbelievable. It's scary too, because now there's missing people after their trailer was swept away in the river :( Every storm has to run out of rain sooner or later! People are being evacuated by helicopter and highways and bridges have washed out. It's getting serious out there.

That's the downside of this weather. On the plus side, it's going to hopefully help everyone's gardens and plants once it finally decides to be sunny and warm, which will hopefully be soon :)

We haven't really gotten a ton of rain, or it doesn't seem like it. It's raining, but it's more of a sprinkle than a downpour like some places south of us are getting. It's going to help my garden and flowers.

I don't know that we will be affected anymore than a bit of a swampy yard, as we don't really have any rivers, creeks, or streams right close to where we live. Our back yard dog pen gets really wet and horrible, to the point that our dogs refuse to go outside because basically, it's just a big muddy swamp! I don't blame them either, it's gross.

On the plus side, today makes for a great movie day/do nothing day. Although, despite the rain, I feel like I should be camping, with a tarp over head and a campfire going, having hot chocolate and roasted marshmallows. That to me sounds like a great rainy day, not that I'm complaining about being able to have a simple stay inside and watch movies kind of day :) Either way, I have to go out to the deep freeze at some point and get some meat out of there for dinner tonight, it's out in our shed, FYI. It's not a long ways, but when it's raining, and slippery, and chilly, it takes FOREVER.

I hope that wherever you are as readers, you're not getting hammered by the rain as badly as we are, and that you're all staying safe if you are. Thanks for getting me up to 2500 page views from all over the world. It's appreciated. Is there anything anyone would like me to report on?
