Under my umbrella ella ella

It's raining, it's pouring, my puppy is snoring...

Ok, well she isn't right now, but she was earlier. Too funny to hear such noises coming out of her sweet, little body.

But it really is raining cats and dogs right now. I'm such a California girl for saying this, and many people will disagree with me, but I hate the rain. Yes, I know we are in a drought and we need it, blah blah blah. Fine, maybe hate is a strong word. So let's just say I'm not a big fan of heavy precipitation, especially if I have to go out in it. Or if I am moving, as you might recall. Just think: wet hair, smudged makeup, muddy shoes... and so many snails to watch out for!

What's worse is when it is raining and you have a really busy, stress-filled day. Like I am today, for instance. All I want to do is cozy up with a good book and a warm mug of hot chocolate. Or, just take a nap. Like Hazel has been doing all morning. What a lucky dog.

No such luck for the working girl, which is why I was absent yesterday (sorry!). But I will be back with more later once I finish typing out all my articles. I still have to tell you about the LACMA!
