After close to three weeks of rain, with no sun forecast in the coming days, Maine is slowly turning into Oregon. This wouldn't be such a bad fate, I suppose, except us Mainers get rather surly when wet. I don't know what's worse, the rain, or people incessantly bitching about the rain. Writing seems more of a chore, so I'm focusing on some flash pieces. What did writers do before flash? So back to the grind. *soggy sigh* I'm truly hoping when I run errands later today some magical musical number will break out to wash all our troubles away. Not literally. Well, you know what I mean. *Do, do, do, do, do, do, do. I'm bitching in the rain . . . *

Could be worse. We've been in a 3-week heat wave and drought here in LA. Unheard of! Expected to be over 100 today.
Hi Rebecca,
There is a change in the jet stream and a new wind is blowing across Pennsylvania. I'm sending better weather your way. I hope it gets there soon.
Hugs, Euphoria
We've had an unusally rainy, cold spring--I mean summer, in Michigan too. We're finally getting a glimpse of the sun. Maybe it will head your way soon!
Angie--Let's switch!
Euphoria--Things look marginally better for Sunday. Hope, hope . . .
Jody--Summer hasn't started here and we have so little of it anyway.
Oh boo-hoo, I can't even stand myself now.
Well, this has definitely brightened my day. Don’t tell anyone, but Singing in the Rain is probably my favourite film.
L.R--Really? Interesting. :-) It's so wonderful; anything with Gene is. I remember the first time my youngest watched Donald O'Connor perform "Make 'em Laugh" oh how she laughed. So sweet.
After complaining about our lousy weather, we are having the best right now. It may get to 80 degrees today and the sun is shining, not a cloud in the sky. Unfortunately, I have too many things to do in the house to enjoy it.
We've had so much DRY beating down heat in south Texas lately, I'm begging for some rain. I'm tired of watering my veggies every day to keep their little wilting limbs from losing the will to live.
Rene--Sorry, just put that stuff aside. When the weather breaks here, I'm becoming a big-time slob. :-)
Sharla--My plants are doing okay, a bit stunted. The roses have mildew, which is a bummer, but they'll bloom. On the bright side, everything is lush and green.
We've had lots of rain over the past month, too. I like it, though. :-)
We in Newfoundland have been tolerating the same sort of weather to-date. We had some great days in the low to mid 20's (degrees C, or course) lateley. Unfortunately it was with lots of rain and humidity. It felt less like the Atlantic and more like the Amazon.
Thanks for stopping by, Alan. Today has been lovely and long over due. I think my plants are in shock.
