It's all soggy!

Goodness, it's been a bit wet lately. We had hailstones yesterday, amidst the thunder and lightning. Hailstones! In July! Whose good idea was that?!

Not that I really mind the rain, I actually like it during the summer, cos you can walk in it and not freeze to death. I'm a real water baby, I like getting wet :) And I love watching the rain - it's one of my life goals to live in a house that has a window seat where I can curl up and look out on grey, wet days. But I don't like it when my shoes decide to leak and I have to sit at work in wet socks. This vexes me. Sadly, new shoes will have to wait a bit longer, so please to be having dry weather for a while now, kthx?

In other news, you know it's not going to be a good day when you wake up, peer at your alarm clock and it says 9:04am. And it's a work day. *sighs*

When do you usually get hailstones?

In North America, they are associated with severe thundstorms--high winds at high altitudes. So they usually happen in the spring or summer.

We tend to get our hailstorms in winter. It's rare we get them in summer, although obviously not impossible.
