Better

Sun after rain

Well, we got five inches of rain in 24 hours, according to a neighbor’s rain gauge. So it wasn’t just my whiny Self – there was a lot of rain. We’re supposed to get more on Thursday, but I’m going to pull a Scarlett O’Hara here and think about it tomorrow.

Today it’s bright and sunny and the trees are sparkling, but it’s still cold, in the low 40s. Waking up to the sun after a good night’s sleep made a difference to my outlook. As I made coffee, I reflected that I really shouldn’t complain about the lousy day I had yesterday compared to my sister, who worked five 12 hour shifts last week (Monday through Thursday, then Sunday), and is now facing her usual Monday through Wednesday. I can’t imagine how tired she must be.

    Hope your sister gets a run of days off too. I do feel she ought to for her health’s sake.
    They say it doesn’t rain in California….but man….it pours!!! Sounds pretty true.

    You see Suzy, thre’s always a better day ahead if you let it happen, the sun never goes away, he just hides behind the clouds, like we do sometimes.
