Actual rain

Today was an actual umbrella-carrying (but did I have mine??), puddle-dodging (this I did do) day in Beer Sheva.  It started raining after I had left the house, and I had thought, "sure, it'll rain - hmff" so it didn't even occur to me to take my umbrella.  It might have been the only chance to use it!!  But I did have to take off my sweater to dry when I got home.  And I've got big, Texas-kinda hair from the humidity.  Keep up your prayers for rain in the land -- it's five weeks to Pesach (Passover) that mark the end of the rainy season.
