Here we go again...

Life has done it once more. I was busied by... who knows what... and was unable to tend to my blogging. It might have had something to do with the lakes that were formed throughout Dallas this weekend and the fascination that came with them. Knee high water was common and there was even some chest high water. I think we totalled at around 9 inches. Wow.

Does it ever seem to anyone else like sometimes God messes with you just to see how far He can go before you stop laughing? Sometimes He pushes us so far we think that everything is falling apart. We know though that when things seem to be at their very worst, He has still got us in His hands. He loves us and will not give us more than we can handle.

How is it then that we convince ourselves that it is? The stupidity of humanity... Lord have mercy!

Nine inches of rain. Phew.

Up here in Western New York we sometimes get nine inches of snow. I think there's some formula to convert rain to snow. Something like every inch of rain would, if it was cold enough, produce 10 inches of snow.

So you had the equivalent of 90 inches of snow.

That's still less snow than we get in an average winter around here!

So as you watch the waters flow by, laugh about the fact that you didn't get 90 inches of snow.

That would have been a LOT of snow! My street was a river for quite some time but I'm happy to report that it is all dry now! It's become a bit too cold for my taste but I'll take this over that rain any day!
