It's Pouring Down The Rain Today

I will NOT be going out in the rain today. It’s not storming, but the rain is coming down heavy. The forecasters were right. My daughter is supposed to come over today but may change her mind if the rain doesn’t slack off. It is really pouring right now. I’m just glad the temperature is warm enough that this precipitation isn’t SNOW. It would be five feet deep by now. It’s been raining most of the night too. I haven’t looked at the weather today yet. I’m thinking that in the North, they might be getting snow instead of rain. I used to live in Maine and the winters were really bad. I vowed to never live in the north again. My twins were born in Maine in the month of July when it was warm. But, the following winter, I didn’t leave the house for weeks. My husband had to go to the military base every day and he had to get the groceries and anything else that we needed. I couldn’t leave the house and it was very boring to say the least. I did have a neighbor close by and she and I spent a lot of time together. She would come to my house, because I was not able to take the babies out in the cold weather. I had two other small children too. So, it was easier for her to come to my house. She had one son but he was a teenager. She and I became close friends and I was able to keep my sanity. I was so happy when we left Maine and I never want to return.
