Rain, rain, rain

It's rained off and on today, and then a line of severe storms came through about 11 p.m., and we're under a tornado watch. Spring is such fun. And they're even talking about highs in the low 40s the first of next week, with a possible frost.

I got a lot of errands run this morning - pedicure, Publix Grocery store, cell phone battery check, post office to mail federal and state tax returns, Aldi's (special on eggs), then home. And that was before lunch! Whew!

We had only three of our usual 6-7 for lunch today, so it was pretty quiet. And we got haircuts. John took a huge nap. We went to another free concert at the university this evening. Tonight it was a recital with a visiting flutist. We enjoyed the performance. But we realized that the flute is not our favorite solo instrument - even though we love our CD of James Galway playing Scott Joplin. It's not quite the same. There are performances and senior recitals every night for the next 10 days at UTC. We'll probably make some of them.

Allan's due in tomorrow for another week of networking, finding new clients, etc. This trip he's going to be looking for an apartment, and possibly a car. I don't know that he's come up with a target moving date yet, but it seems to be getting closer.

Today's painting is called Rhododendrons #1.

You bitched all last summer about how dry it was. Now you're bitching about the rain. Your daughters come by it honest!

love, K

But isn't that the purpose of "weather"???? To give us something to bitch about?

And actually the terrible drought was in 2007. 8^)
