It's been raining since before sun-up. In fact, we even had a thunderstorm earlier this morning. Today's high may reach 50 degrees, but rain is in the forecast all day & tomorrow. There's even a chance of snow tomorrow. WDTM?
Since the ground is still frozen, run-off from rain can cause flooding. Lois texted me to check the basement, since people at her school were reporting water in their basements. [I checked; our basement is--so far--dry.]
I have to travel to Lincoln tomorrow, so I'm hoping to leave town before it starts snowing.
Today's Whimsy
"Jaguar attacks woman trying to take selfie at zoo." [Omaha World Herald, 3/11]
Dept. of Shameless Joke-Stealing
"The village blacksmith finally found an apprentice willing to work long, hard hours. The blacksmith instructed the boy, 'When I take the shoe out of the fire, I'll lay it on the anvil, & when I nod my head, you hit it with this hammer.'
"The apprentice did just as he was told. Now he's the village blacksmith."
[Reader's Digest, Feb. 2019]
SELFISHNESS
"O Lord, . . . who shall dwell on Your holy hill? He who walks blamelessly & does what is right." Psalm 15:1-2
"We have the most perfect picture of unselfishness in Christ, our Savior . . . He took our death upon Himself so that we might live forgiven here on earth & forever in heaven."
[Psalms for Lent, Jane Wilke, Creative Communications for the Parish, 2018]
