Friday Night Potpourri

Seven days in the rain:

• It's been raining so much over the last few days, the driveway becomes a puddle about 15 feet by 3 inches deep.  The drain keeps clogging with leaves and other debris, and it's got to be manually cleaned several times per day.
• I found a couple of steaks defrosting in the fridge.  I wonder when we're gonna have those?
• Spent a lot of time recently looking for things.  Our kid's model paint.  Scissors.  Colored pens.  Clean laundry.  Hey, how did laundry get on this list?
• I've driven my car for almost three years now, and I've just discovered the speed control for the intermittent windshield wipers.  D'oh!
• One of our boys' pee-wee practices and events have been cancelled all week long.  The way it's raining, none of the kids will be ready for opening day.
• Winter storms this week.  Lots and lots of garbage cans blown around the streets.  The garbage truck driver had to do a lot more on garbage day.  Picking up cans that blew over just so he could let them be dumped into the truck.
• Brings back memories of the Red Album.  Mrs. Scott knows what I'm talking about.
