It’s raining now. It’s Hurricane Dennis, two days after hitting Florida. By the time he makes it up to Illinois, he just brings rain, but no destruction. The worst he'd do is cause floods in this area.
(I don't get it; usually hurricanes are given girls' names (e.g. Arlene that hit last month) how come this time it's Dennis? And last year's worst one was Ivan? But the next one to threaten Florida is Emily? Or are they now alternating between male/female names, in the name of equality?)
Guess what? found a site to explain the names and more : wow they are also named in alphabetical order! I guess Bret & Cindy weren't huge ones like Arlene or Dennis! Ah, the fun of learning something new!! Check out the info here.

Remember a previous entry about re-roofing? Well, I think they couldn’t have timed it better.
They finished work on Monday afternoon. Monday night it started raining thanx to the washed out Dennis. And has continued to rain intermittently since then (now it’s Tuesday afternoon).
It’s a welcome break to the heat, that’s for sure.
Tho it’s gonna drive the humidity way up there once the rain stops and the sun warms everything up again – which may only happen in a day or two :p
No sign of leaks in the closet - whoohooo!

Will continue with ENT Part 2 later today.
Cheers!
