Joanne; me too, I'll be happier if the farmers get some, they're growing our summer fruit right now.
joeh; it will have to pass across our eastern states first, if there's any left after that, it's all yours.
Elephant's Child; I do hope you get some, there was plenty of colour left in the clouds when they passed on. We have a few clouds left here, but there's blue sky too.
Lee; perhaps you'll get some when Canberra has finished with it.
Barbara Neubeck; I'll have to watch the weather report more closely and see which areas outside of Adelaide are getting rain. I know they need it over on the Yorke Peninsula.
Pearl; I've seen that type of rain on TV, fluffy white stuff you can shovel around. :)
Delores; in our dryer than dry country we need lots of it.
That is great after the hot weather you've been having. Sorry but you may get more heat next week as we have a couple of days in the high 30s forecast in Perth. We have been promised showers here but nary a sign of precipitation so still watering the garden twice weekly and by hand for pots etc each day. Hopefully the rain will reduce the high fire danger in South Australia as well.
The original Words for Wednesday was begun by Delores and eventually taken over by a moveable feast of participants when Delores had computer troubles. Sadly, Delores has now closed her blog forever due to other problems. The aim of the words is to encourage us to write. A story, a poem, whatever comes to mind. If you are posting an entry on your own blog, please let us know so we can come along to read it and add a few encouraging words. This month the words/prompts are supplied by River and can be found here This week's words/prompts are: 1.conviviality 2.adoration 3.willpower 4.mellow 5.gentle 6.guitar Have fun, don't use all the words if you can't,there's no pressure here. My story will appear on this blog on Friday as always, unless I can't write one... edit: Charlotte's colour of the month is Beauty Berry Purple.
Long ago, Kim of Frog Ponds Rock, (who no longer blogs), dreamed up a meme called Sunday Selections. A place where those who were willing could put up photos they wanted to share, new, old, good, bad or indifferent, any photos you please. Nothing rude or vulgar though. And we don't mind at all if other bloggers care to join us. The meme is now continued by Elephant's Child and I join in as do a few others. Andrew is one. Messymimi is another. Drop in to their blogs and have a look. Wisewebwoman has also been joining us occasionally. Brother R came to visit and brought me some old paperwork belonging to my dad, who has been dead for 25 and a half years now. They'd been stored in a container with moth balls and were quite stinky so I pegged them out on the clothes rack in the back porch three days later, most are now inside, but the heavier items such as dad's passports are still smelly so they are still out there. I now have the original copy of his natu...
Every few months since I've had her, Lola has been taken to the vet, just seven minutes walk away from home, for a "manicure" aka getting her talons clipped. In the beginning the cost was $19.90, gradually increasing until her last visit was $29.90 Today's visit? $35.00!! and what did I get for my trouble? a nice big welt where she scratched me as I tried to get her out of the carrier. Disinfected as soon as I got home of course, I've no wish to get sick from cat scratch fever!.
I am so happy for Adelaide.
ReplyDeleteWhen you're done with it, can you send it to California?
ReplyDeleteGood. It is hot and dry here - with luck some of that moisture will make it over here.

Areas in Brisbane copped a lot of rain during storms on Wednesday, but we received very little here. We need it badly.
ReplyDelete... happy to hear about the rain, River... I hope the farmers get some, Too ...
ReplyDeleteHugs ... Barb xx
We have rain, too. In the form of snow, so that it can be moved around more easily.
ReplyDeleteThat's what I'm telling myself until, oh, April.
Pearl
glad you got some rain
