Water everywhere

(1968 June 24)

The news on the weather front is too much RAIN. I couldn't do my work properly this morning because of violent thunderstorms and almost pitch blackness. How can you clean up dirt when you can't see it? Daddy walked 8 blocks out of his way to avoid water in gutters a foot deep. As if this weren't enough water, I overdid on watering the house plants and nearly ruined two, including a table!
