Reply #8: It's been storming, more days than not, [View All]

for a week and a half leading up to today. It rained most of my week off for winter break, which really frustrated me. I had intensive time scheduled with a trainer to work with me and my 3 year-old filly while I didn't have to be at work, and most of it had to be cancelled.

I wondered why my boss told everybody there would be rain today; predicting rain in the desert with any accuracy is a difficult thing to do. I see that we are in the forecast for rain today, and all weekend. Today is fine, but there goes 2 more days with my horses. x(

Truly, we are dry enough to need every drop. I just wish it wouldn't fall during my precious days off, when I need to be outside with my horses.

Last week I was stranded for two days, and my street looked like the one in DRs pic; my house sits on raised ground, but the water was over the curb, past the easement, and working it's way into the front yard. I could have gotten out if I really needed to, but I would have had to wade through the flood, so I didn't.
