Woke by pouring rain this morning. All the g-kids were here today. Hubbe took g-son to school and then I got soaked getting chores done. Back inside the girls and I had breakfast together. I had to make a cake delivery in a down pour of some of the heaviest rain this morning. Thankfully I made it there and back over the water covered roads and low visibility. Back home I played with the girls until lunch time. They wanted mac and cheese and I had some chicken thighs thawed in the frig for hubbie and I so I fried them up and we ate left over kale greens with them. CA went down for a nap soon after she ate and the older two colored quietly on the kitchen table for awhile then watched TV. We all had a case of cabin fever this afternoon and the girls found things to argue and fuss over. The rain continued all day until late this evening. The creek almost ran out of it's banks for the second time in less than a week.
When the rain stopped there was 1.7 inches in the gauge. Thankfully the temperature stayed up today in the upper 50's before it crashes for the next several days bringing winter back in what is called the Easter Cold Spell. Some are calling it our Dogwood Winter but our Dogwood trees aren't blooming yet.
