Well, the rain got here after all...when I struggled out'a bed this A.M. (at the behest of Willie who, when he has t'go, has t'go)...we walked out the door 'n I took shelter under the orange tree 'cuz the raindrops were coooooold...'n just begining...
The Bender Boy told us last nite that we were gonna have at least a week of winter 'n that it was gonna begin at 2:00 A.M. with the wind rattling the windows prior to the rain that wuz gonna be at least a couple inches over the course of the week (that's a lot of rain for this area) 'n feet of snow on the mountain (I'm completely alright with snow on the mountain 'cuz I tend to stay off the mountain this time of year anyways)...well, I wuz awake at 2:00 in the A.M. 'n the wind didn't blow...it didn't blow at 3:00 or 4:00 or 5:00 but then I fell asleep until Willie woke me a little after 8:00 (still haven't seen any sign of heavy winds but t'is raining ~ off 'n on, here 'n there)...
'n becuz I just can't let such a gloomy day go by without a p'litical comment:
Winston Churchill defined a fanatic as one who can't change his mind 'n won't change the subject....
