Rain?

We got it here in ‘Paradise’, a magnificent amount of that useful resource that too many take for granted and tend to overuse.
It was bound to happen when I kept bragging about our perfect all the time weather; but to be honest we really, really, did need it!
This time of year is considered our forest fire time of year, since it is our dry season.
And boy, were we dry, according to the numbers that were in the nearly five hundred range with our southern counties below us more than seven hundred in the numbers game that constitutes a drought.
I did find out recently that those numbers actually refer to how many inches of earth are dried out, and no it is not five hundred it is five inches down into the ground is dried out, or six or seven inches, but stated by hundredths and that I do not know why it is.
If I find out I will tell you.
Today, we did get quite a nasty storm in the wee hours of the morning starting around four thirty A.M. and the yammering of the thunder and lightening woke me up!
But when I saw the clock said four thirty-three I went back to sleep and the next thing I knew it was six thirty; a better respected time to wake up; I would say.

Sleep is very important to everyone, but some have no choices due to the type of job they have. I on the other hand, seriously have no excuse about that, except the pain thingy.

Well, while writing this I had a pain around the rib cage so I went to lie down, and now I will be finishing up for this evening, since it could be just my MS hugs or who knows what, but sitting here is not very comfortable so I will close this early tonight with just this shorty, please forgive…and allow me to be the first to wish you all a very happy good night and ask you kindly to count those blessings and share those overages and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear?
