You know you are in trouble when...

the headline on the front page of the Oregonian says

Dear rain: You win.
Sincerely, Portland

Apparently we had 2.8 inches of rain in February and 4.75 inches in May.
I am not sure that summer will ever get here.

Seriously!!!!! What the heck? Do you remember two years ago in August when it was cloudy nearly all month? Really? Are we ever to soak in some Vit. D? Let's cross our fingers!

That's a hilarious headline. At least the editors have a sense of humor about it.

Dear Rain... do stick around;). I really don't want to purchase two portable air conditioners this summer.
Besides, I'm going to be the fattest elephant in Portland Oregon, so you'll be doing me a favor by forcing all them skinny beautiful people to have clothes on:O. (Then of course, I will feel a lot better about myself;).
Phoebe... g'sailing tomorrow! oh yeah!

Seriously??? Today, I was just angry at it! One more pent up day with grumpy children, and I'm likely to run down Portland streets screaming bloody murder! Sun, anyone?
