When it rains it pours


I am sure you have all heard about the crazy amount of rain we have received down here in the South. I have had several phone calls and text messages checking to make sure we were still alive and not under 10 feet of water. The girls school is cancelled tomorrow because of the rain and flooding. Now here is the wierd thing. It didn't even rain at my house today. It was hot and sunny and humid and I mowed the lawn. Flood? Seriously? I know that in some parts of Georgia the flooding is really bad and it makes sense to cancel those schools. But seriously? Why cancel school here when the streets are dry and there are absolutely no puddles anywhere around? I know it is supposed to rain tomorrow too, but I am pretty sure the buses could still make it to and from school safely. I think it is just an excuse for a day off. So now I get to decide what to do tomorrow with a house full of bored kids who can't even go outside and play.
