Rain, Rain, GO AWAY.
Posted on June 26, 2007 by Christine | 15 Comments
It is like the movie Groundhog Day, with every day being just like the day before. (Well, that is what I’ve heard the movie is like – I’ve slept through it no less than 3 times.) My yard is starting to turn into a lake. It just keeps on raining, and raining, and raining.
Seriously? It is getting old.
I still haven’t figured out how much rain we’ve gotten this month so far, but I was just *thrilled* to learn that June is normally the month where we get the most rain. So maybe there is some hope of it ending sometime? I really hope so. I need some more sunshine in my life!

Wow – I hadn’t seen the forecast that far out.
Anybody have the number for a good lumber yard? I need to get going on building an ark.

PS – I’m all set for sunshine. YOU are the sunshine of my life – that’s why I’ll always be around.

Aww, that’s sweet, Mike (may I call you Mike?)
Amen, Christine! I was looking at this same forecast for Conroe this morning and thought how depressing it is. I’m an obsessive gardener, so with forcasts like this it’s a good thing I am also an obsessive knitter. (I wonder if Noah’s wife spent a lot of those rainy days knitting?)

Dude, I was thinking this today. Enough already.

I feel your pain. We had a stretch like that a few weeks back. I think the river crested 2 or 3 times. They had to build a dike on one of the streets downtown (luckily it wasn’t one I ever went on). I think that was up for 2 weeks. We’re finally out of that … for now at least.

I live in Dallas so I know what you mean! Houston seems to almost always get rain about the same time we do (if not the same day, then at least the following day). This has to be the rainiest June ever.
Stay dry!

You should try and watch Groundhog Day one of these days – it’s a truly great movie (imho).

I will! The rain is coming. It’s just a matter of how long will it stay

Amen, Sister. I feel like I am going to grow webs between my toes. Enough already!

*waves to Kristine (which happens to my sister’s name, too)* to a fellow Dallas Filipino (i snooped on your blog)… it’s been raining here non-stop… it’s kind of getting depressing! i love it when it rains but it’s too much. i should be thankful that it’s not 100+ like it was last year. i’ll take rain over dry Dallas heat anyday (and i’ll take it over humid Houston weather, too).

Hi there! I’m sorry for the topic hijack, but…I used to live in Houston and I yours was the first blog I EVER read on a daily basis. I seem to remember you talking about a group of women you worked with on designing websites. Does it still exist? If so, can you point me to someone I can contact about designing a website for me?? Thanks!

I am changing planes in Houston. Are your flights having any problems..?

Hey Christine.
Just wanted to say Hi and tell you that your new website looks great. Keep on! Sticky’s tip: purchase a rain suit.

Just move to Washington! You totally would feel right at home here.
