♥{{{{ RAIN }}}}♥
This good rain was in SEPTEMBER....about an inch..
hoping for more in OCTOBER...so far...nothing but a few light..showers.
Now...it's NOVEMBER and nothing .....but
IT IS IN THE FORECAST for this week....

We lost a big part of our grass thru the summer but I can re-seed it next year.
It will be just fine...

What a neat post. Gotta tell you- I have always loved Mae West's quotes. She was just sooo outrageous at a time when most women did NOT speak up. Love her spunk. We had rain here today, too. xo Diana

ReplyDeleteGlad you are finally get the rain you so badly needed. Loved all the quotes and your photos are great. Have a blessed day. Madeline
ReplyDeleteI can see that you are more than ready for the rain when it comes. And I hope that it is gentle yet steady. You may be planning tablescapes and scrumptious things to bake already.
ReplyDeleteCute post, Beeej! I love Mae West, too. She was something!
ReplyDeletexoxo
Great photos and cute post...and I want that kitty!
ReplyDeleteLoved the quote about criticism - so true.
ReplyDeleteWe had rain and some blustery storms this evening. Very thankful for the rain!
Glad to know you're getting some much needed rain. those quotes were fun to read. We have been enjoying some nice weather lately, but our water levels are low due to lack of rain this summer.
ReplyDeleteoh bj, I don't see how in the world you think of all of your post ideals...you are amazing girl !!
ReplyDeleteWhat cool quotes to go with the shots. I know some folks don't like rain but I do! :-)
ReplyDeleteSome lovely photo's with great quotes to go with them. Oh that Kitten is so cute!
ReplyDeleteRain is really needed for become a green garden. I think you must have to need proper grass seeding on your garden.
ReplyDeleteStumbled into your blog. Love the quotes and the pictures. Sweet and cute kitty. We're having rain here in Hong Kong.
ReplyDeleteGreeting from Terrie
This is a fun post BJ! I hope you do get that rain and the kitten is just too cute:@)
ReplyDeletePS-I just posted a Maple Walnut Fudge you might want to try!
We are expecting rain here this evening! When it is raining I actually enjoy staying at home and getting some work done! I need it to rain because I am behind on my chores:) Have a blessed day my friend, HUGS!
ReplyDeleteI love all your quotes - thanks for putting them all together! Rainy photos always make me feel cozy, too!
ReplyDeleteI giggled about your rain post and losing part of your yard. When we lived in Texas I loved it when it rained! It's only October and already I've had enough rain and know I have till May, darn it! Although I live in Oregon, we also lost part of our yard this summer and had to lay new sod. It's always something, huh?
ReplyDeleteWe are expecting rain today and your rain post made me smile. I don't mind the rain, especially if we need it and we most certainly need it now. So dry and it was hot yesterday. A nice rain will bring a cool down for the weekend, and its suppose to be cool here now. Thanks for the rain post bj........
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your weekend.

That head of yours is so full of great ideas it must hurt. This is just the best. I love how you associated all these great quotes with your rain. We still have had very little and warm days. My flowers think it is spring again. I am afraid it will come a freeze one night and end them. There must be something you are not so good at.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Mae West. When I was a little girl, I watched all her movies and thought she was the cat's meow. Even did a killer impersonation of her when I was seven. They don't make 'em like her anymore.
ReplyDeleteCheers,
Tracy Screaming Sardine
Great quotes and that cute kitty at the end made me smile!:) have a great evening dear!:)
ReplyDeleteI think w are getting your rain;it has been coming down in a steady stream for the past 3 days..same for tomorrow. Really enjoyed your quotes. Now I am blowwwwwwing the clouds your way.
ReplyDeleteRita from up in Canada.
I just could have given you such a big hug this morning (having my coffee) when I saw your post.
ReplyDeleteIt's your neighborhood. It's like my neighborhood. Your lawn after such a drought looked exactly as you would expect.
I love my little home but it is not in a lovely neighborhood. It's our tiny bit of heaven..and I love it. It's been fun making it my own and watching Howard get used to flowers and plants and color. He had never had that in his life. It's been fun.
I think you know what I mean..
we've been waiting here too. sadly in yesterday's forecast, we only ended up with less than 1/2 an inch, spread over 2 different showers. oh well...
ReplyDeleteOut of the rain is the very best place for the flag on a stormy day.
ReplyDeleteWHERE RED ABIDES
A day filled with scarlet, they say,
Can make the sad heart skip and play;
For where red abides,
A little bird hides
And sings every worry away.
