When It Rains

Today I was planning to mow both my yard and my neighbor's, but last night it rained so heavily that it's not even feasible. 1.19" in the rain gauge this morning, and we both have patches of standing water. Our side not so much, since Fox has made a project of creating drainage ditches. But we're not talking about just wet enough to not get a "smooth" cut, it's flat out soaking. Neither of us is particularly vain about our yards, we're both just looking to not have snakes and ticks everywhere.
And it looks like it's going to just keep raining, so I may not get out there until Tuesday or Wednesday. Unfortunately this also means we can't finish the water pipe and ethernet project we started over here, so the side yard's going to have to stay tore up with muddy trenches until things dry out. Fox even has all the plumbing and electrical stuff he needs, but we can't really do much about it until the yard isn't a swamp. Whenever that is.
I corrected a typo in Feed Your Demons, and this weekend I'm starting to lay out and write dialogue for Lora, formerly "Untitled Rabbit Story." I also have some illustrations I'm working on. I still am not 100% sure what the cover art for FYD is going to be so I'm just going to let that simmer a while. There's no urgency in getting it printed.
I have the hiccups. No idea why. Great.
