@paigea I'm thrilled about that. So what have you done with your laundry?

We live in a dry climate overall. So, it will dry inside too.

@bunnybon7 And my husband made a nice clothesline inside too. Do you have a washer and dryer? Or do you use a laundromat. I used to only use the washer at the laundromat, and drag that heavy wet laundry home to hang out.

That's what you get for wishing for rain. It rained here yesterday also which we definitely needed it. We sure could use a bit more as the grass is still brown but I don't see any rain in the forecast this week but it could always change.

It said 15 percent chance of rain here and just as I got ready for swimming, it started! However, fortunately it wasn't big deal. It quit after a few drops.

@LadyDuck Do you need rain? We don't, but it would be okay if it rained on our garden. But farmers, not too far from here have drowning crops!

Three things in life are guaranteed to bring rain: 1) washing your car; 2) hanging clothes out on the line; and 3) scheduling an outdoor activity like a picnic or barbecue.

@paigea rain misses it's too a lot cuz were in a valley of sorts. Enough that patterns go around us more often than not. Not so much that you can see it when driving like many places near a mountain range. No mountains near us.

They are always calling for rain this summer, but it so often missed us. Some farmers are losing crops due to too much rain, not in our immediate area though.
