Mine has changed, too, and I'm trying to keep my smile. :)<br />I think I've said this to you on another post, but everytime you post about another unforseen event, I feel like cheering you on!

Your state is definitely one of extremes when it comes to weather. It sounds like the rain and flooding in some parts was downright life-threatening. Glad to know that you and yours are okay.<br /><br />Way to show that rain that Abby can't be held back by a little H2O! terrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12510457113017189354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168047058963833173.post-31979428071234871312013-09-14T15:40:02.622-06:002013-09-14T15:40:02.622-06:00Great last line, Abby!
Anyway, I heard about the ...Great last line, Abby! <br />Anyway, I heard about the flooding on the news this morning and hoped it wasn't affecting you too badly. Sounds like you are swimming through it just fine. What crazy extreme weather this summer. It has not affected us, but we'll get our turn just like everybody else. The problem here is the salmon run. Our rivers got too warm this summer and now the Sockeye don't want to spawn. <br />"The World's Biggest Darkroom" could apply to my area in winter, too, sometimes. <br />Cheers, and thanks for your comment on my blog today :) :) Rebecca S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16409572371302109142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168047058963833173.post-50954370568551147832013-09-14T14:02:21.194-06:002013-09-14T14:02:21.194-06:00I guess that's why they're called wind pan...I guess that's why they're called wind pants and not rain pants.

It was the ride home that soaked them in record time, so I wasn't sitting drenched during class. <br />Tessa is a bit of a princess and has stayed home.
