I do believe that mother nature has the sheets this morning! Pretty rainy here at this time. The first sheet of rain came around 1:35 a.m. and since, a couple more has covered us quickly, then gone. I think we had about three short sheets accompanied by some thunder and lightning then things slowed down to a steady light rain. At 4:40 we had received a little over 1/2 inch. Who knows what is next.
It is good that the rain is here now while it is 41*. Tonight the low is expected to be down to 29* and tomorrow's high around 39*. But, the forecast for Thursday night is a temperatures of around 18 degrees. I don't need a big reason but the cold and being retired should suffice to allow me to sit for long spells in the old recliner without a hint of nagging guilt.
I had a flash of sadness awhile ago. As I looked out the window the little rivulets of rain interrupted my view and as my focus changed to some of them, I was reminded of tears. Tears are usually for sad occasions but as I struggled with the feeling, the knowledge that tears are sometimes shed at very happy times too, came to bare. Whew! After all that I've ended up somewhere in the middle. That middle is probably the normal state for most of us.
As I sure you can see I've still nothing worthwhile to type so I'm going to quit fighting it this morning.
