the rain has arrived here in south central pa, and with it has come a bit of wind. nothing too exciting yet, but we're still right on the edge of the action, so we'll see what happens in the next 12 hours or so.
the rain...i kind of love it, even though it can be so destructive. there's something different about tropical rain. maybe it has a subtle hint of pineapple scent or something. ;)
i went out a bit ago to help my mom unload the car (she HAD to go to the grocery store, of course! milk, bread, and eggs...does everyone make french toast when there is a major weather event?), and since i was pretty much soaked through from that, i figured i might as well take a stroll. it was warm rain, and the droplets weren't the tiny stinging kind, nor the big, fat ploppy kind. they were medium sized, soft-ish, and filled more of the air than the average rainstorm. it was nice.
of course a rainy day is also a great time to crack open a good book. too bad i couldn't find one! instead, i spent the afternoon cleaning and reorganizing hannah's closet and dresser, and then watched a couple of movies. i still would have rather had a book, but it wasn't a bad afternoon.
this is what makes me smile:
haha i don't know what to say about this, but it makes me laugh every time i see it.
