Too Much?

For three days, San Francisco was pounded with rain and wind.  We had a water shortage earlier this year.  That problem is now behind us.  We have too much water and the damage is widespread.  There were lots of prayers for water.  They must have gotten stuck in God's inbox and only recently received attention.  What we really want God to do is give us everything in moderation, and in a timely fashion, including nice weather wherever we go on vacation.  Or, let the blizzard come to the ski resort, but just before we get there for the fresh powder.  So, are not our prayers rather selfish at times?  And fantasy land?  I mean, Mother Nature does not work only in the moderation mode.  I live in this wold, not fantasy world.  I need acceptance.
