It's raining and pouring, but there's no time for snoring!

Today is Friday. Monday, my youngest and last to be born child will start preschool. I'll take him in, give him a kiss, and say goodbye. Who knows what will happen after that?

The thunder rolled in sometime around 4 this morning. It was a pleasant way to wake up, and the smell of rain is wafting through the house and my flowers are happy. The rain is giving no sign of letting up, and that is more than fine with me.

Now, the young boy is happily indulging in some Winnie the pooh action on the television. I am happily sitting here reading the news, plus checking my myspace page obsessively, and blogging to you about it all.

This is all fine and good, but I think that now is the time to unplug and reconnect with my kid. After all, they really do grow up so fast. Before I know it he'll be off at school. like- on Monday.

So, cheers to a day of rain and rainy day fun that doesn't involve electronic computing devices or email. I hope your day is just as nice, and I hope mine works out as planned!
(oh, and you can still try for a free copy of Xamon Song.
I won't go to the post until Monday, so there is still time to win!)
