RAINY DAY



See that chair on my porch? This is my favorite spot to sit when a gentle rain is falling down. I love to sit here in the morning with my cup of coffee, sometimes a blanket and just stare at the world around me. This morning is one of those mornings! It started raining just a bit ago and it is chilly, 62 degrees. It is 8am and I'm not in a big rush today for anything. I'm actually happy with the rain because that means I don't have to drag a hose around my yard and garden to water plants AND I need to stay inside and get some cleaning and laundry done. Plus I have a stepping stone to get cut. Staying inside in the summer is like punishment to me! So excuse me while I go listen to the rain!!!

  1. Hey Lori,
    I'm just finishing up my blog work, I'm pretty slow. I too am listening to the gentle rain, outside my kitchen window... love it!!!
    Hope you have fun tucked away in your little corner of the world!

  2. What a great place to set -- in any kind of weather. We're also having rain. I have my 5 yr. old g'daughters today so we're trying to stay busy. They're here while Mom & Sage go to church camp for a couple of days -- that should be a lot of fun in the rain. My friend, Annie, & I both have pink/wht quilts that we love to use on our tables. So far, no stains. I love quilts. Hope you have a peaceful, rainy day. Jan
