Walking in the rain is good for your soul
I decided to walk in the rain on Friday. It may not have been good for my health, but it was good for my soul. I love having the elements batter me from all sides, making me feel so insigificant. I walked the whole 2 miles and came out the other side drenched. The whole way I was smiling, which to the onlookers may have given the wrong impression. It did occur to me that I looked a bit of a loon, the only one embracing the cold, absolutely soppy wet, and grinning from ear to ear occasionally singing " singing in the rain" (the original, not Mint Royale version-I don't think those stunts would be taken as a sign of being more sane><), but I didn't care.
My coat still smells a bit damp, and I hope to God it's dry by Monday. Also, we have plants. Hoorah. I love plants. We have a hanging basket, and little pom-pom tree outside in the "courtyard" > i.e. 2 by 2 brick slab. I also have eaten far too much this week, and have a food hangover. I think I may be having soup for a while, because my stomach has been well and truly stretched by all the food and liquid I have consumed. Mind, it's no thank to Leslie's fabulous cooking, which we just can't seem to get enough of. My plate is finished evey evening.
Hmm, clocks "spring" forward tonight, so I am going to turn all the clocks forward now, which technically will make it 23:24, which is bedtime time. Have a good Mother's Day!
