We had a whole day of nothing but rain, sometimes really hard rain, plus lightning and boomers that made you jump! The boomers were closeby, which is why I sometimes almost felt my heart stop. It was scary.
Of course, it also meant that our TV was on again, off again when the rain was hardest. Ditto our Internet. The Beast didn't even go to church, which I teased him about since he went to a party they had yesterday. I said, *Oh...too much partying, huh? That'll teach you to lay off the booze!* They didn't have any booze, I'm sure. If they did, it was more than likely wine coolers or something on that order. Not that it matters. The Beast can't drink since he had his strokes. One sip and he gets so dizzy and nauseous that he has to lay down until it passes.
I consider it God's form of justice. He was quite the boozer prior to his strokes and he was a very nasty drunk. I won't go into it specifically but the fact that he can no longer drink is actually the only reason we are still together. *Wink*
It rained so hard at one point that we couldn't see the huge pine tree just a few feet out from our front porch! It's been like that all day long. Not that it rained steadily. It would stop raining for a bit then suddenly start pouring again. I have no idea how much rain we've gotten for the day so far but I would think it was somewhere around 3 inches at least.
Poor Baron was going crazy with needing to go outside to do his business but he hates getting wet. He haunted the storm door until the rain stopped and then the Beast would let him out. He'd run down the stairs, find himself a suitable spot, pee and run back to the house. You could tell he wasn't taking any chances on some of that wet stuff falling on him! LOL! It was drizzling a bit when the Beast decided to go to bed but Baron ran down the stairs and was back in the house within two minutes flat. He's set for the night now. The Beast does not go to bed without Baron going at the same time. He truly is *man's best friend*. There are nights when Baron is tired and he starts this one type of bark where he's trying to get the Beast to go to bed NOW! We laugh at him when he starts that. Eventually, he will give up, go lay down on his cushion but he points his nose at the Beast and just stares at him.
More of the same type of weather tomorrow and even on Tuesday. **Sigh** It actually looks like each day will be worse than today was. We will just have to wait and see what the weather gods have in store for us all. It looks like the weather all over is just going to be a mess.
Love you all. Try to have a great week. Drive very carefully. The life you save may be your own! ***Hugs***
