Its raining! Its pouring!

Oh I'm so pleased you've finally got some rain! Carlisle was lucky today because it was forecast but we didn't get the downpour that was predicted..for a change! I heard rain during the night but it never prevents me from sleeping. I like the sound of rain, it doesn't bother me. If it rains during the day I don't tend to go out in it unless it's absolutely necessary. It's not that I'm soft or anything, I just hate dodging people with my brolly (should be other way round) lol. I'd love a coat with a hood which would mean I could dispense with the brolly altogether.

Honestly? Eat some hot snacks, and drink some hot beverages. :) I have somebody out there in Austin. :) Hope she too is feeling as thankful for rains. :)

well surprize surprize we got raqin yesterfay started around nine in the morning took my nap it was rainng softly and when I woke up the sun was out again! So looks like I took a napbut I do love to get out in it as it dosent rain that often here

I'm glad y'all got the rain u needed. Maybe some of it will come my way. We sure need it to. I like to saty in out of the rain, read a good book & of course mylot. Have a good one.

Just got off the phone with our son who lives in Austin, and he confirmed that you have received much rain there and are still receiving more. I went to bible class this morning but spent most of the afternoon in my platform rocker with the cat on my lap and watched old episodes of The Andy Griffith Show. I could hear the rain on the metal carport through the windows behind me. A nap would have come easy, but like you, i knew it would have ruined tonight's sleep. That's like a kid who wants a cookie a few minutes before the meal. Mama always says "No, it'll ruin your supper."

I would prefer to sleep during rainy days. Here in my country, the weather is quite hot most of the time and during rain, it would be best to sleep :p have a nice day!

I live in California, and it looks like it is going to rain right now, but it is not actually raining, it just looks like it is going to rain. My friends and I call it a "fake out" because it's clouds taunting you. You keep thinking that it will rain, and then it doesn't. Usually on a rainy day, I just stay inside, study, spend time on the computer, read, and watch some television.

Well I sit on my Laptop or like you I will sleep, I have to admit when it rains and it is dark and gloom I just want to sleep when I was working it did not bother me as I was very active Also I like going to sleep listening to the Rain and the wind

hi again my six sentences just flew the coop. start over. what is rain oh that stuff with nice wet drops that falls out of thesky everywhere e3se but not here in Southern California. We have had no rain for a whole year. everthing is tinder dry and the fire hazard is wayu p there so aqll we need are some stupid arsonists to start a little fire that will end up; covering zillions of acres and burning people out of their homes. this is so sick but they keep doing it too. I love to curl up; with a good book on a rainy day or get on the net and goof off but the book sounds good too.

It's raining as I type! Yaaaay! What do I like to do when it rains? Well, I used to love playing out in the rain, but that's hard to do with a walker... So you KNOW me; it's "grabacat" weather! Minnie's not a really cuddly kitty, though, so it's the same thing I do on dry days: snack, read, & sleeeeeeep!! I listen to the rain on the metal car-cover outside, & it's almost as though I'm a kid again, curled up under a snuggley, home-made quilt on Grandma's old overstuffed, blue mohair sofa, reading a good book, listening to the deafening sound of the rain drumming on her tin roof, & nodding off. You know that sound, too, from our church, which has a tin roof. It was so hard to hear the priest's wonderful sermons, & worse, trying to stay awake when I am soooo programmed to nap when I hear that hypnotic sound! At least it covered up our little amateur choir's worst sins...LOL! Hmmm...I don't s'pose you could lend me one of your cuddlebums...? :o) Maggiepie “This nation can never be conquered from without. If it is ever to fall it will be from within.” ~ Abraham Lincoln

I am usually inside on my computer or curled up with a great book. I love to hear the rain on our tin roof, it makes me feel cosy and content. We have not had as much rain as we need here this winter, it was raining yesterday but today the sun is out again…

I like to nap on rainy days too! I get very drowsey if I slow down enough to listen at the rain for a few minutes. I was wondering if my new metal roof would make the rain louder but I can't tell at all. Probably a good thing since I might sleep right through my alarm clock..lol.

Rains used to be my favorite season during my better days. I would just go out on my bike and drive for a few miles till I am really dripping drenched. Then I would have a smoke (I used to smoke quite a lot but have quit that habit for over 10 years now). Then I would return back home and ask mom to make me some potato fries - she has still some great ingredients for that. In the meantime, I would dry myself and change the clothes and then switch on the Audio System, listen to some soft music and eat those fries reading some comics. That was how I spend the rains. Now, at 36, I am suffering from Rhematoid Arthritis and so have to stay away from the rains and dampness around. :(

Like you I also like to lay down on bed. I feel very comfy when it's raining. It's like telling me to sleep. Yet sometimes the rain in our country is couple with strong winds so I'm quite scared.

I like to think about curling up in a warm bed with a good book or a movie. If I do this I invariably fall asleep. If it's cold, I will light a fire in this room otherwise I just sit here at the dining table typing away while I watch the rain through my big window. . I like to walk in the rain but it means getting wet and very muddy around the feet here.

Same as you... Yesterday, a friend and I went to visit some of my relatives (two sets) and by the time we headed home again it was dark out. All the way home (about an hour's drive) we were treated to a lovely light show courtesy of sheet lightning. No rain or thunder, though.

Hi ya ElicBxn It rained here quite heavily the other day. I went and picked the kids up from school and got soaked myself. What I like about that is getting home in the warm and putting on dry clothes, that is such a nice feeling. Trouble was that when I went to pick kids up from school I had to stay wet for a further couple of hours or so because of my sons activities so it was extra nice to get in and get changed and warm. I just like to bimble around the house, doing the odd job and playing on mylot when it rains.

As there's no rain these days in my town, I'll be grateful if I get rain in my place. Though, It doesn't give much effect to my activity. I still need to go out to train my students.

I like to sleep, but I like to do that no matter what the weather is.If I had a two hour nap and wanted to go back to bed, I wouldn't have to worry about sleeping the whole night. For me it seems there is no such thing as TO MUCH sleep. In Pa. we haven't gotten much rain either. I am suprised they haven't said anything about rationing water. They have other years, and it seems we had gotten more rain than we did this year.

hi ElicBxn,I don't like a rained day. when outdoors is rainning ,I can't go out play and work. The place I live have the four season. I like summer and autumn,becase it is not often rained,I can do some work and play.
