Whoever was messing with the Bowl of Winds--THANK YOU

[Aiel Heart]

XD ah I see. How much is there? Enough to do fun stuff like fort building? Probably not.... >.>

[Tynaal Consen]

Not where I live.. But there's enough for snowmen and fights in other places. If there were still snow on our floor I would die.

[Daruya]

*sigh* I should never have run my mouth (or my fingers, in this case). It's raining. Again. *grumbles*

 

Please, rain, go to Oklahoma, for crying out loud, and help put out the fires!

[Elgee]

We had snow in all 9 provinces at once. That's almost like having snow in each state of the USA at once, fiy. Unfortunately not here where I live *eyes Tyn jealously*

[Aiel Heart]

XD but South Africa is 1,221,037 km² and the continental U.S. is 8,080,464.3 km².

Almost but not quite :P

 

SNOOOOOOW

So pretty to watch it fall, twirling and swirling and sparkling against a dark velvet sky.......

[Elgee]

Hence my use of the word "almost", AH. Jesus.

[Aiel Heart]

South Africa is a bit bigger than I thought it was, so I stand corrected on that one :P

[Daruya]

It's raining again.

 

I am so, so, so, so tired of rain . . .

[wheeloftime13]

our power went out last night because of a storm... I enjoy going out in the rain.

[Daruya]

My youngest son's dog (a 10-lb Pomeranian) decided he wanted to play this morning when he went out during the brief time today that the sun was shining. He started playing in one of the deeper puddles and splashed around and dashed around and it was hilarious. Then he had to have a bath because he was filthy. I think it's cute that the furry little pipsqueak enjoys the water so much. I just hope he doesn't try his luck in the pond (it's at least 8 feet deep, if not more).

 

I guess the rain isn't so bad but lightning here gets really intense. On Monday, a man and his stepson were trying to get back to their boat after a storm blew up as they were walking on Shell Island. The man was carrying the boy, who had injured his ankle, on his back so they could get to the safety of the boat faster. They were struck by lightning; man was killed; his stepson (14 years old) died as a result of his injuries yesterday. Storms pop up so quickly here this time of year and can move in so fast. I was at Shell Island not that long ago and on the side we were on there is no shelter at all. It's not a good place to be during a thunderstorm . . .

[Daruya]

Well, I left work early because I still felt like ick (not much sleep due to horrendous headache). Stopped by the feed store for hay and shavings (horses' run-in is a mucky mess). Got home, got the tractor to put hay and shavings in barn, decided to put some pelleted shavings in the run-in first to soak up the puddles and lo and behold another freaking thunderstorm rolls in and I had to make a dash for the house. The horses are still in muck (got 2 bags of pelleted shavings down but not nearly enough to soak up the water) in the run-in shelter so as soon as this passes, I'll have to slosh out there again to add more. Oh, and I can't tell you how often I almost lost my boots in the muck and came close to doing a face-plant in the muck until I regained my boot and my balance. Arrrrrrrgh! NO MORE RAIN!

[Aiel Heart]

Send it here!!! The air feels so CLEEEEEAAAAAAN

[Daruya]

Are you kidding me? It's raining AGAIN! AAAAAaaaaarrrrrggghhhh!!!!!!!!!!!

[Elgee]

Aawww bummer! *tries to help poor Dar bail water*

[Aiel Heart]

SEND IT HERE!!!!!!!

[Rekinu Alasayaar]

Yea, no kidding... we need it here too! Been a burn ban all summer long here in Oklahoma (though I JUST got here a couple of weeks ago... though I must admit that I am loving the heat!)

[Elgee]

What we need are Gateways. And Windfinders.

[Aiel Heart]

Passing a storm through a gateway..... That would be interesting.... BIG gateway....

[wheeloftime13]

today it's supposed to rain from the time my birthday party starts to 8 at night.... stupid storm, you're not getting in the way of my birthday party! I will have it!!

[Aiel Heart]

Oops..... Well, this is when you somehow incorporate the rain into your party :P

 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY WoT13!!!!!!!

[Elgee]

Happy birthday, WoT!! Hope you have a great day, hon *snuggles*

[wheeloftime13]
