As I sit here writing this, it has finally stopped raining! Every other day this week, it rained. By the end of Thursday night, my backyard literally looked like a swamp. Usually, when the weather gets weird in Texas, it leads to me getting a lot written but that didn’t happen this week. I was distracted by the combination of the Olympics and Celebrity Big Brother. Fortunately, both of those are now over.
