It’s Raining Cats and Dogs

It is raining cats and dogs I see
Weather forecast says it’s mostly beastly
Umbrellas ain’t no good
Can’t go out for food
We’ll just stay home and watch AKC/CFA* on TV

Cute idea for your entry. Sorry you lost your mom. I forgot to say that at your blog. My mom is 93 now. Scary to know she could be passing on in the next several years.
