Between rains

R: Look, there's a river [beside the road].

me: I'd call that a creek. Creeks dry up between rains.

R: "Between rains"? What's that?

me: That's a thing we used to have in the olden days.

Actually, we have been getting respites between the rains. Our current respite feels like a steam bath. Only maybe not as hot, since it's still only

That's pretty darned cool about Whole Foods. I've been feeling sorry for myself about all the rain we've had in Denver, but when I turn on the news and look at Texas... well, that shuts me up pretty quick! We don't have the steam bath issue though since it's barely been out of the 50's all month! We have had a few days in the 70's though with minimal rainfall so hopefully we're turning a corner.

Hoping you and yours stay safe and dry!

The steam bath was temporary. And I would be sad to still be in the 50s by the end of May

OMG, you totally crack me up! CatMan and I recently watched a movie called "El Norte" about some Guatemalan kids and their desperate move to the US as illegal immigrants. When it was over I was cleaning up, feeding the cats, and giving Princess her medication - it occurred to me that my cats lead better lives than a large chunk of the people on this planet. Seriously, they have nutritious food, medical care, clean water, a safe place to live. Sorta puts things in perspective...
