Heys from the Midwest

Post by Rowan »

It was 65 here today. It has been a long cold winter and I needed a break from my norm so I am seeking out other avid readers to keep my life interesting. I am a true crime girl and needed a break from attempting to solve the Elizabeth Short mystery. Drop me a line if you are of like mind...

Welcome to the forums, Rowan. It's been rainy for a while where I live.

LOL. we're only at the shrivelling green stage (level 3 restrictions) but dreading the next stages. I'm beginning to feel guilty about owning fish.

Actually, the water restrictions don't affect me much, I use very little water at all, but it is an indication that things are getting dire.

It's really brown and horrible here - we're desperate for rain.
