Where is Blind Melon when you need them?

All I can say is that my life is pretty plain
I like watchin' the puddles gather rain
-- No Rain by Blind Melon

We're going on about six inches of rain so far and it is still raining.

I spent an hour sweeping the water out of my backyard before picking the boys up from school. Then, Pickle spent about two-plus hours with me after that sweeping out more water. Army of Dad relieved him when he got home. I finally had to come in after another hour or so because I was starting to hallucinate from getting hypothermic.

We're still watching the weather.
