We are getting drenched here in our little piece of the
world. It has been raining off and on
(more on than off) since Thursday night, and really picked up yesterday. Rain is definitely not one of my favorite
things. I prefer sunny skies with puffy
white clouds. However, I am working on keeping a more positive outlook, so I’ve
tried to come up with some things that I do like about rainy days. I managed to think of five, so here they are:
1. I don’t have to water the garden. Mother Nature is taking care of that for me
today, so no need to drag out the hose and watering can. That’s one thing off of my to do list for
today. I’m also told that lettuce likes
the cooler, rainy weather. I’m hoping
that my pots of lettuce will begin to thrive since we’ve had so much rain.
2. My husband enjoys overcast days, and really likes the rain,
so he has been very happy with the weather
3. The cats are always incredibly snuggly when it’s rainy. There’s nothing quite like cuddling up with a
purring cat (or four) on a rainy night.
4. Soup! Rainy days are
perfect for homemade soup. Tonight it’s
chicken noodle soup from the slow cooker.
5. Emma looks really cute walking around in her Thundershirt,
and it seems to make a huge difference for her to wear it.
So what about you? Do
you like or dislike the rain? Are there
things you like about rainy days?
I love rainy days. I run around so much, the rain gives me an excuse to stay in. :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad someone is enjoying the monsoons! :-)
DeleteI used to not like rainy days too much but the hubs loves rainy days and overcast ones too so they've sort of grown on me. The overcast days are a nice break from those too hot ones.
ReplyDeleteThat's one of the things my husband likes about the overcast days. :-)
