Pouring down raining here! Already got over 2 inches and there is so much more on the way...supposed to get 2 more inches tomorrow.
Flash flood warnings are in effect, thankfully i'm not in a flood zone. My place sits on a small hill and all the water drains to the edge of the woods.
I'm betting that the town will be shut down tomorrow...I might just have the day off!! :celebrate
It hasn't rained this hard since July! The rabbits sure seem happy about it. Temperature was 81 today, low is 50. Tomorrow is 68, nice and cool with lots more rain!

I applied for a job at TSC today..thought it might be fun and they're hiring for F/T so that's a bonus :)
All the rabbits are doing great...Jessie and Skyler's kits opened their eyes today!
10 and 12 days old already.They're adorable. So far they haven't left the nestbox...I gave Jess the box that i made with the higher lip because her kits tend to fall out of the box more than normal...she spends a lot of time with her kits and I think they just take any opportunity to get some milk and accidentally come out of the box with mama. With the higher lip, no longer a problem!

Goodnight everyone! :frow


Just saw a weather alert on accuweather...there's a tornado warning. One just touched down in the next county over. Fingers crossed on this one :fl
You can't post about baby bunnies being adorable and not post pictures, it's against the rules!

I tried to breed my does over the weekend but they weren't very receptive, did get some fall offs on two does though. Hopefully I will have baby bunnies as cute as yours in a month :bunny

No tornado for me last night...yay! I stayed up half the night worrying about it and checking the weather alerts. Lightning did strike my front yard and took out my phone line so i had to go shopping for a new landline.
Today was 59 degrees, windy and wet...tons of rain today. Altogether got 4 and a half inches. I had a 10 gallon bucket sitting outside that was half full before the rain started and it was overflowing today :eek: Nice to have rain but i'm over it already...looking forward to all the ice weather this week. 70's and sunny!
@Baymule i'm glad you got some rain too! :yesss:

I'll post some pictures of Jessie and Sky's kits tomorrow. They're too cute! :bunny

I have always liked watching storms and have seen some pretty intense ones.....if ya hear a coming "train" ya best get to cover...it is usually preceded by hail, but not all the time and hail doesn't mean tornado, either.....but,, ya just have to be aware of it while observing them....:)

Good to know, thank you!
There was hail last night but that was after I got the video. I like watching storms...used to be scared of them but not so much anymore :)
