I am hoping that the gully behind the house will fill with water. It actually did 35 years ago during another epic rain year. It has been raining non-stop heavily with some wind since 4 pm yesterday. Periodically during the day yesterday too. Very gray and more rain expected all week.
DD1 called at 7 am to bring her dog over. We have been babysitting this Lab since they got it and Covid ended. While I don't mind most of the time since he plays with Ozel and gets some of the energy off her, we have to close the patio gate to keep him away from the older dogs in case they decide to kill him. Now we have to let him in and out to potty. By "we" I mean DS1 and myself. DH can't (won't?) hear him at the door scratching and crying to go out or come in.
DD1 also took my muck boots because she didn't want to get her shoes wet going from her car to the classroom over the paved school parking lot. DH allowed her to take them so now I can't leave the house to do anything on the field or i the barn and keep my feet and ankles dry. I might as well go barefoot if I have to do any outside chores! DH doesn't go out in the mud in case he might fall. After seeing my boots disappear out the door while I yelled at her to return them, he better stay inside or I might accidently knock him into the mud! A jaunty wave and blown kiss from DD1 annoyed me. She refuses to buy muck boots because she "doesn't need them" until she does and then steals my good Texas muck boots! She will be sorry when I take them to Texas! At least I know what to give her for Christmas next year!
Josie the Mule and Skittles are soaking wet. The sheep are huddled under the teepee. The old trampoline cover has collapsed. The sheep probably knocked a leg out of it again. It is gray, foggy wet, nasty outside and I need to go turn up the heat.
