We missed the storm

Our busy day Saturday (it was my birthday) left us exhausted at night, so none of us had much trouble to sleep, when we finally got to sleep. So much so, in fact, that we missed a storm. The first true storm of the year if my calculation is correct. It happened in the middle of the night and it was apparently very strong. The family woke up late the next day, none the wiser. It's only when I saw the ground still wet from the rains that I could tell something had happened. I don't regret it too much: I needed a good night of sleep, which I seldom have, and I got it. But I hope there will be more storms this year and that I will be able to enjoy them.
