I’m beginning to wonder if the rains will ever end.

Living on the Gulf Coast, I expect the daily afternoon torrential downpours. I do live in a tropical state, but this is getting ridiculous. It’s been raining for days and days.

What usually takes me about 16 minutes to drive home from work, took me 57 minutes.

It was a white knuckle drive as my wipers couldn’t keep the windshield clear and most of the roads I would use to get home were blocked off due to flooding.

I was doing about 10 miles an hour, creeping through rushing water over the roads. The water was so fast it had whitecaps and hit the fences on the side of the road and flew upwards.

I looked up at the sky thinking, “What’s next?”

Maybe it’ll rain cats and dogs!

So, okay. It didn’t really rain cats and dogs. A good thing too, because I wouldn’t know what to do with them all!

I was worried that my wicked cousins would come calling since there was so much water they could easily swim right to my doorstep.

Believe me, any visit from them is too soon!

I was beginning to think I would have to worry about water spouts too.

A water-spout looks like a tornado over the water and can have winds up to 90 plus mph!

They mostly fall apart as soon as they hit land, but with all of this rain, who knows!

Hopefully, the sun will return to dry up all of the water and I can bask in it’s warmth again.

I miss sitting out by the pool, reading and playing on my computer.

If I don’t get outside soon, I’ll go crazy, and I don’t want that!

I wonder if there is a dance you can do to make the rain go away? LOL
