Rain

Have I mentioned lately how much rain we’ve had?

I have been keeping note of it on my desk calendar, (I use the term desk loosely as it sits on the tray I use as my desk), and it has rained almost every day since the beginning of July.

Seriously. There have been only the occasional, sporadic day, maybe two, not necessarily consecutive days, however, when it hasn’t rained.

I don’t remember it raining this much in all of the 5 years we’ve been here. Not that I mind. You know how much I enjoy the rain; listening to it, smelling it, listening to the thunder, watching the lightning when we get it. The only thing I don’t like about it is the electrical outages that sometimes come with the package.

Note to anyone interested, don’t plan on vacations to Mexico July, August, September, and into October. It appears that is the “rainy season” down here. Kind of sucks for the end of summer vacations, or Labor Day holidays, doesn’t it?!

That said, stay safe.

Post script: it’s pouring down rain, with my favorite lightning and thunder as I’m typing this. I’m in Heaven, right here on Earth.

Post script: I had to contact the Elections Manager for former local county, who , BTW, responded within 30 minutes of my text inquiring about our ballots. He replied that if we didn’t already have them in our emails, then he never received the FPCA. (You can look that up yourselves.) I resent them to him directly, and again, within a very short amount of time, we had 11 pages of absentee ballot do’s, and don’ts in our in boxes. I have printed everything out, we will fill in what is necessary, and have a lovely trip down to the Embassy to secure our absentee ballots for the next President of the United States of America.

Fight, fight, fight.
