Yes, it’s raining. It’s been raining for a while. It will be raining for a while longer, possibly all week.

Up until it became such a big topic of conversation, I was enjoying the cool, gray weather. It’s good excuse to curl up in my armchair and read. I like the drumming sound it makes on our standing-seam roof. I’m not sure what’s so great about incessant sunshine anyway, but I’m in the minority here. Even Dave, whose inherently sunny nature lets him see the good side of everything, is getting impatient with it.
