It seems that with all the rain we've been having I've learned a few lessons.
Lesson 1: After the rain, do not attempt to weed the garden as your boots can and most likely get stuck in the mud.
Lesson 2: Do not mow the lawn immediately following the rain as it leaves horrible large clumps of grass all over the yard.
Lesson 3: Do not leave clothes on the wash-line during the rain. Not only will it not dry, it will also wrap itself around the line making it quite difficult to remove.
Lesson 4: Do not ask your husband to get things done before the rain, cause he might get caught in it.
Lesson 5: Be patient.
Because even though I have a list of things I'd like done outside, I need to wait until a) it either stops raining or b) it drys up enough from the rain.
I have a Type A personality, which Wikipedia describes as "Type A individuals can be described as impatient, excessively time-conscious, insecure about their status, highly competitive, over-ambitious, business-like, hostile, aggressive, incapable of relaxation in taking the smallest issues too seriously; and are somewhat disliked for the way that they're always rushing and demanding other people to serve to their standards of satisfaction.[1] They are often high and over-achieving workaholics who multi-task, drive themselves with deadlines, and are unhappy about the smallest of delays. Because of these characteristics, Type A individuals are often described as "stress junkies."
ouch, that was a little harsh, and unfortunately true ^.^
It's a little easier to understand then why this weather has been so frustrating for me. I have my lists of things to do and a timeline to have them done and the weather is totally not following those plans.
Lesson 5 is probably the most important one and I figure I better learn it quick, cause I am not enjoying all the opportunities presented to me to learn it.

well the rain has been a bit frustrating for all of us I think that is fair to say...considering the days are already getting shorter (meaning summer is going to quickly).a little warm sunny weather is NOT to much to ask

:) Great writing! I think its one of the best. That personality describes you to a tea. And there is even some things that hit home for me, too.
When it rains... Jump in the puddles, it's fun! ( Just don't roll in them... like my daughter does... silly girl...)
And always look for the rainbows!
I really enjoy the double rainbows.
