Rain, Rain go AWAY!

I feel like I'm living in a swimming pool. Or maybe inside a fishbowl. It has been nothing but wind and rain for at least two weeks and I'm sick of it! OK, I know it rains a lot in Oregon, but it couldn't have been this bad (could it?)

My poor parents couldn't have picked a worse time to come visit. The weather sucks and everyone in my family except me is sick. We are cooped up in our too small house, watching too much T.V. And it sounds like a TB ward in here with all the hacking and coughing. I feel like a terrible host and tour guide. My parents have seen my kids' school, various local grocery stores and my gym! I bet they're glad they came all the way to England to check out the price of cereal, bread and milk!

Despite all my grumblings, it has been nice having them here. I won't know what to do with myself when they leave in December. I think I managed to suppress all my homesickness until they arrived. Now it's all flooding back along with the rain! We need some sun ASAP!
