Weather

I'm british so I think a blog about the weather is quite normal.

This week all we have had is rain and after a very very wet summer the water has no where to go!

My garden is waterloged but we are lucky that we live on higher ground. I feel for all the poor people that I have seen on the news, who have had their houses flooded.

I feel very lucky to live were I do but I just want this horried weather to stop. It is so gray out most of the time. We are getting up when it's dark and it is getting darker so early now. (I do know it's winter & this is normal for it to get dark early)

My poor cats want to go out but as soon as I open the door they look out and do a backwards walk away from the door.

With the weather the way it is I can't even let the children out in the garden. So the poor things are in their room making lots of mess which they don't tidy up after they have finished playing. So it's down to me or most of the time my husband to get them to help him tidy up before bedtime stories.

Even the children are asking when it is going to stop raining. They don't mind the rain as it makes nice puddles which are great for a game of 'splish slash splosh' which consits of jumping in puddles to see who makes the biggest slash.

Lets hope this wet spell does end soon.
