I know your pain. We've got a bad drought going here. I have to water to keep it from dying altogether. Yesterday I put the sprinkler out on the front lawn and stood watching out the window as our money trickled over the curb and down the gutter to the storm sewer. After about 5 minutes I sighed and got on the computer.

Shortly after that Andi called me from the dining room, "Honey would you come here a minute?" I got up and padded in there to find her looking out of that same window. "Look", she said as I walked up. She slid her arm around my waist and put her head on my chest.

I looked out the window to see about 15 assorted birds, the 2 neighborhood ducks, 5-6 squirrels, and the rabbit that has a nest under the bush on the side of the house running through, drinking, or just standing around in the sprinkler. I didn't feel so much like it was a waste of money after that.
