The Sweet Smell of Rain....

Don't you just love the smell of rain?!?! I do. Rain is a wonderful thing, it can mist lightly and make everything look fresh and clean, the colors of the trees and flowers look so vibrant after their shower. It can be a steady rain, the kind that offers just the right melodic beat that's so calming, it can make you feel relaxed. It can be a thunderous downpour, a hard and deep cleansing rain, a rain that makes your soul feel refreshed afterwards. There's so many reasons to love the rain. The possibilities are endless. You never know, you just may find your pot of gold after the rain.
I have the strongest urge to listen to "I love a rainy night" by Eddie Rabbit!!

By the way....Happy Memorial Day to everyone, please remember to thank someone who served our wonderful, free, Nation. Thank you :)

The house smells of Pledge and Windex right now, lol, Christen has gone on a little bit of a cleaning streak....and I'm NOT gonna complain!!!!!!!!!!!!! She's a good role model for me, lol.

The kids are all happy, they only have 6 days of school left. Then I have to be like a cruise director and make all their plans for them. I wonder just how many camps are offered through the summer, lol. I'm happy because in 16 days I leave for Tampa!! I can't wait to get there, it's a place that I've never been. I can't wait to see the ocean...yes, I've seen one ocean, but, I can't wait to see another....yeah yeah yeah, water is water, but hey, it has a different name, lol. I hope I can find one of those penny machines, I really want a flattened penny from Florida! Ben brought me one from Mackinaw Island, isn't he sweet **hugs for Ben** (he brought me fudge too!!)

Well, I don't wanna bore y'all to much today, so, I'll stop for now. I hope if it's raining where you are, you'll go out and breathe the air in deeply and enjoy a sprinkle or two.

Y'all have a great day and stay safe :)
