The rain total of the weekend was three and a half inches, we got half an inch this past Thursday. A lot of rain in a short amount of time. And with more rain coming in the next few days, its no wonder why we have flood warnings.

I got out and mowed while a load of laundry was going. The mower has fresh oil and fuel and the only problem I had with it was the wet grass stopped it a couple times.

Have a bird feeder and a suet holder in the back yard for the first time in years. Need to figure out how to baffle the squirrels from getting to the feeder without buying something.

Bea Arthur passed away. Liked her a lot. She will be missed.

The races out at the Speedway were canceled due to weather. We went out near there last night to get some dinner at Culver's when it started raining. Came down hard at times. Had severe weather watches and warnings, funnels were spotted and I think a tornado did touch down.

Despite the chance of rain, I decided to go ahead and do a load of laundry. I am relaxing my rules a little about certain things. Cant be a stick in the mud about everything all the time.

The flowers we and other have blooming are beautiful.

Have started checking Sergei's ears to see if he has any problems with them. Will need to go ahead and get him on his allergy pills again, and that wont be fun since he hates them.

The weekends rain total is four inches. All of this rain is maiking it tough to do outdoor things and laundry.

Need to get the lawn mower in working condition. With all of the rain, I will be needing it soon.

The Pet Expo wasn't as good as the previous couple years and because there was a huge line to get in, we waited twenty minutes in the rain, coupled with the fact that there were just way too many people and not as many great things to see made it feel like a big let down. Doubt we will be going again.

We skipped the movie but did do some shopping and had lunch out. The rain total for yesterday was half of an inch. Think it rained at least another inch worth early thing morning. Will have the total later in the week.

Failed to mention that on the 2nd we got a inch of rain. Got another half an inch yesterday. Was thankful I got Moms laundry done early.

Spring looks like its ready to bust out all over. Grass is greening up, trees are budding and flowers are blooming or are getting ready too. Birds are happily building nests. Its a nice time of year.

Managed to get two load of laundry done this week and it looks like just in time to with more rain coming this weekend.

Will be going to the Pet Expo this weekend and maybe a movie. Have change a few things around in our schedule and will be doing groceries on Friday now instead of Thursday.

Mom took today off and we didn't do anything, but that is what she wanted. She needs to get caught up on a few things. Other then an errand or two tomorrow and Sunday being Easter, I doubt we will do much this weekend. Would like to see a movie again some day.

Have already finished three afghans this year, one was small the the other two were medium sized ones that will just fit my bed. But I wasn't doing them to create a huge one anyway. Now I am working on sofa covers for the love seat in the living room. I do need something as a side project to keep my interest up. Haven t been doing a lot of crocheting and I love to do it. Of course I can use some of the extra yarn I have to make a afghan for Project Warmth. I figure someone would appreciate the gesture and I would feel good about donating it.

Took a walk this afternoon to enjoy the day. It started out cold and cloudy and the sun bullied its way out and the day ended on a lovely note.

The Royals season begins and I can only hope we have a better year. I dont know who if anyone I will follow this year.

I am going to do some laundry today. Chance of rain later in the week.

Had a strange dream the other night. I was driving alone on a local highway when I looked over to my right and say that water had receded enough that some sandstone structures and rocks and reappeared. I pulled over and wandered over to look at what changed since the last time water receded. (There is no area anywhere I drive that has water receding on a regular basis, its a dream so it doesn't really have to make since.) As I continue walking, I enter into a cave and see all this marvelous marble. There are statues, stairs, rooms and so on all made of wonderful marble in various colors. One room I cant walking to far without having an overwhelming fear that the watger is going to come rushing back in and I will end up trapped. At some point as I wander around in the cave I see a bunch of other people and then the dream ends. I do remember taking photos inside and outside and at one point I noticed my hands were deformed.

Got some chores done, errands completed and will probably rest the afternoon away. Dont feel very well. Stomach has been queasy most of the day.

Still need to paint in Mom's room but we are going to wait until it's warmer to do it. We are considering some colors for the kitchen. The color is going to be a shade of orange. We want something a little darker and warmer then what we have in the kitchen right now.

Flowers are blooming and the snow we got Saturday was mostly dead and gone Sunday.

The weirdo weather and whatnot is playing havoc with my sinuses, add to that my spring allergies are starting to flare up.

Will go to the laundromat again this Friday. Haven't done back to back weeks in the longest time. Have to do it because of the weather. But now we are caught up and wont have to do anything until maybe next week.
