I just put a dehumidifier machine in the room to save my chicken feed and my bread flour.
My feet are all wrinkle from walking in the rain to let my feather kids out and feed them. I could break my hips from a fall walking into a muddy ground. I have been visualizing the rain is moving to many dry areas and rain there.

Be careful

You like prolonged rain or gloomy weather? Do share why you like it? I might learn something and get me over this unhappy weather.

That's a very good question. I had to think about it.

Rain is transformative. Everything in the landscape changes. All the colors are different, they become deeper, richer, fuller. It's like being suddenly transported to a different planet.

Rain changes a static landscape into a dynamic one. It's exciting! I love watching the little rivulets find their way and the tiny ponds form. Water pools and spills over and runs and meanders and moves. Its energy is tireless. I wish mine were, too!

Rain stops the world: people and animals stake out a place and stay there until it passes. Watch, and rest.

I like the sound of rain. It's different everywhere it falls... on leaves, dirt, pavement, roofs, overhangs, cars, umbrellas, raincoats. Everything has a different rain sound.

Rain clouds are like giant fluffy grey blankets encompassing you, hugging you, making everything feel snuggly and safe. Rain outdoors means tea and comfort indoors.

Rain clears the air of pollution and the ground of gunk. It makes the air smell so good. I want to gulp deep lungfuls of it. It makes me feel strong and alive.

Rain means life. There are no desolate, post-apocalyptic landscapes in places where it rains regularly. There's plenty for everyone. Plants grow, animals thrive, life is abundant. It's preservation from thirst and refuge from need. It's reassuring. (Desert landscapes, on the other hand, make me very uneasy. Where is the water and what happens when it runs out??)

I love watching it rain on the ocean. Water pouring into water. It makes me feel a part of something eternal and timeless.

I've always been awed by the power of a thunderstorm and lightning. I get swept up with it. I feel like I'm part of its magnificence.

I like novelty and change. After the rain, the world wakes up and shakes itself off but it's never exactly the same again.

I grew up with this song and have fond memories of it, I still love it. The hand-drawn animation is stunning:
