Rain

We have had so much rain the last couple days. The wheel barrel is full, our lagoon is full and I am tired of it. Last night lightening struck and ignited a row of hay near our farm. Smoldering hay is so rancid and hangs in the air. It really bothers cria Royal Sigmund's lungs. After all he is only a month old. Though nothing is more miserable than a drought, rain can still bring you down. Rain in July means HUMIDITY in Missouri. That is such a difficult time for our animals. The air conditioning has been on several days and that makes all of us grumpy. I have a sister that is having a hard time right now. She is my baby sister and I just want to swoop her into my arms and make things right for her. I know I can't, so instead I sat down and wrote my kids an email about how special they are to me. I hope they really read what I wrote them. Too often we fail to let the ones we love know how much they mean to us. My eldest sister died in a car accident in 1981. I will never forget the morning she died and for no real reason I hugged her and told her much I loved her and how happy I was that she was my sister. That is the last memory I have of her. Sorry this is such a downer of an entry...Maybe the sun will shine tomorrow!
