I'm sorry you are having this awful weather too. We have lost our roof to hail for the second time in 8 years. We had two hail storms two weeks apart. Garden slashed, vinyl punctured, all the grit off the roof, out building ruined and two trees ruined--one twisted out of the ground at ground level and one broken off 3/4 of the way down. Do hope you are able to get it repaired soon. We will have to wait for a year at least to get ours done; the roofers are overwhelmed at this point.

Lets all think a minute.........do you think someone is trying to tell us some thing???? Nobody listened to Noah either as he diligently kept building the ark. Til he crawled in and God shut the door. Then they woke up, but to late!!!!!!!

Oh my, that is terrible! Hope the roofers work faster so that you do not get more damage.

I think you are right. God has been taken out of too many things.

We are as dry as I can ever remember it being. I told my husband the other day we may have to give up on the grass...just save the trees and foundation of our house.

The news says it will take 18 inches of rain plus our normal rainfall to break this drought. They are reporting that we should get rain this week from a tropical system coming out the the Carribean...praying for that!!!

I had to pick my daughter up yesterday from Baylor University in Waco, Texas and when we were driving home my car thermometer reached as high as 107...too, too hot for me!!!

We had rain yesterday. Today I went riding at the beach and got very sunburned. We never know from day to day what it is going to do here on the coast.

Raining her in Dayton, Oh area also. Suppose to have rain all week. Sick of the rain. But another good day to read, knit or quilt or take a quick nap.

I think Mother Nature is WAY beyond PMS...This looks more like menopause to me! Especially since it can go on for years!!!
