Y'all - it hasn't rained here in ages. I'm drying out. Can you guess which movie that quote is in?

So - I've made a Spotify playlist with nothing but rain songs - the Ogre and I had great fun trying to remember them all last night. Well, he was googling and giving me hints, or he'd play a bit and I had to guess like Name that Tune. It was fun. Maybe you can guess them? Maybe you can do a little rain dance and ask the sky to please, please rain down on me.

Did you know - you can't get Purple Rain by Prince on Spotify? I was on a mission, so I didn't try other Prince songs, but I bet you can't get any Prince on Spotify.

Happy Friday. Wish me some rain.

hey - PM me if you want to share spotify lists. I have no idea how to do that, but maybe I could learn.

Blessed be.

A Little Rain

Well, the Ice Man's mule is parked outside the bar
Where a man with missing fingers plays a strange guitar
And the German dwarf dances with the butcher's son
And tonight a little rain never hurt no one

Well, they're dancing on the roof
And the ceiling's coming down
And I sleep with my shovel and my leather gloves
And a little trouble makes it worth the going
And a little rain never hurt no one

Oh, the world is round and so I'll go around
You must risk something that matters
Oh, my hands are strong, I'll take any man here
If it's worth the going, it's worth the ride

She was fifteen years old
And never seen the ocean
She climbed into a van
With a vagabond
And the last thing she said
Was "I love you mom"

And a little rain never hurt no one
And a little rain never hurt no one

Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da

Catholic Prayer: Prayer for Rain

Description:

Farmers and gardeners alike all have to pray for rain periodically.
This prayer can be said in conjunction with the novena to St. Isidore the Farmer, feast day May 15 in the USA.
This prayer is also included in the 1956 Rural Life Prayerbook, published by National Catholic Rural Life Conference, recently reprinted by TAN Books).


Prayer:

O God, in Whom we live and move and have our being, grant us rain, in due abundance, that, being sufficiently helped with temporal gifts, we may seek with more confidence those that are eternal. Through Christ, our Lord. Amen.

Prayer Source: Novena in Honor of St. Isidore: Patron of Farmers by National Catholic Rural Life Conference, National Catholic Rural Life Conference

Good Luck, Holly
