When The Rains Come

We’re having a thunder storm and I walked all the dogs before it began. I called to Hubby, who is mowing the lawn, and he ignored my pleas to stop cutting and come in. I think he will wait until it either rains on him, or he gets hit in the head by a large hail stone!

That’s the difference between us. I worry and he doesn’t. He is always calm. I suppose that is what makes us such a good couple. I fall apart and Hubby is my rock!

Of course the relationship is not one sided. I do things like cook meals, do the laundry, and go see weird movies with him too!

And when the storms finally get to us, I’m the one who runs around and shuts down all the electric appliances.

Hubby is now in, the rain is falling, and the storm is almost over us! The winds are blowing and Hubby actually said he is hoping for a good bit of rain to water everything. I’m hoping it will keep those pesky chipmunks out of my garden for a night!

So do you like violent thunder storms, or are you like me and a bit of a chicken? My three dachshunds don’t mind a big storm, but poor Fritz, he really hates them. Yes, my big boy has the heart of a baby lamb.

I was going to walk down to the fireworks tonight, but I am thinking that they will be postponed until tomorrow.

  1. Don’t talk about rain ! We have more than enough of it here, although the last 3 days it was warm and sunny. Thunderstorms are announced every day, but so far they never came. Nicole’s dog (a golden Retriever) gets epileptic attacks when there is a thunderstorm. She has to give him medication before ! and still … How can you call chipmunks pesky ! they are soooooo cute ! I would feed them, lol !

  2. Ron and I went for a walk and got caught in in the rain. It felt good!
    We are going to the Fireworks on Saturday night! There were some last night around, but we like the Wallingford Fireworks! Love YOU, Mel

  3. Did you get to see the fireworks? We missed the ones in Lowell because the storm that was heading towards us looked so bad, but it actually ended up passing us by. Still, I think we made a good decision because it looked really bad and I’d hate to picture us running to the car with the kids amidst 1000s of other people.
    Fireworks tonight in Salem, NH, tho, maybe we’ll go to that! <3
