Rain, rain go away...

Ken Johnston

Are you all wet with depression? Or feeling a bit cooped up and stir crazy?
Well you are not alone!
Just about everyone I have talked to this past week has had it with the weather.
One guy even gave me heck for checking my rain gauge the other day. “You probably just love this weather... checking your gauge like it matters.”
I really had not thought about it. But really he had a point. It has been raining so much lately that what is the difference if it rained 1.10 inches from Saturday to Sunday morning.
I would have been probably more popular if I had said, “I clocked how long the sun was out the other day!” Well maybe not... everyone seems to be down and out with this crappy weather
Then when we finally do get a break in it (I believe the last break was last Tuesday... I am not

actually clocking the sun... in case you are wondering), everyone has the daunting task of trying to get their grass... (oops I mean tropical rain-forest) mowed.
That just makes them even madder about the weather.
A lot of people are also starting to get cabin fever, much the same way they do in January. I am not sure what is worse. Trying to beat the blahs by going out and freezing in January or getting that damp feeling in your bones when it is raining all the time.
I know two people that went for a two hour walk in the rain on Sunday, just because they were tired of being inside all day.
All I can say is, “RAIN, RAIN GO AWAY AND DON’T COME AGAIN ANOTHER DAY!”
–Until then, Ken
