Well, to say I was ready, willing and able to accompany my husband on a major grocery shopping spree today would be a lie. (He does better without me anyway, I seem to deviate from the list causing more time and money being spent, and he stays on list/task)I did have the best of intentions with getting ready to go, but I fizzled, my motor ran out of energy, and later on this would prove to be the truth, my awful embarrassing truth that I was just plain exhausted. The reasoning I do know this was the case because by 12:15 P.M. I went in for a nap, and the next thing I knew it was 3:10 P.M., wow! That is one of the longest naps that I can remember ever taking.
Sleep is still an issue with me, and believe it or not I am still quite tired now.
Some believe that weather has an effect on how you feel, and there is some scientific proof to that logic. When I asked a rheumatologist one time about telling the weather with aches and pains that rain is eminent he said that was true due to the lower barometric readings. If you get a chance see if you don’t notice that birds fly low too just before a storm. There are people who suffer from the winter blues with not enough sunshine and this is extremely common in cold winter climates, and also a true weather induced ailment.
And so today was our chance for some rain, it was all around us on the radar, but it was just this close (I am pinching my fingers together, I know you can't see it) and missed us by inches. The wind came and the skies got dark in the middle of the day even the temperature dropped but the upper atmosphere came up dry at our home, and we need some rain real bad. The grass is literally, and I do mean literally it does crunch under your feet. As I sit in our sunroom I can see the darkness in the sky, but I use the swimming pool to tell if moisture is coming down too, and no such luck, not one single drop! But we all know that this is possible, when I was a kid I can remember it raining on one side of the street but not the other, and we thought that was so cool!
It’s just so frustrating when the weather guy or gal names your location as getting the big boomers and you know that its just not so, and so you yell at the telly, not here you a—hole! Sorry! It’s so darn aggravating, and to think next month we will be singing rain, rain go away since it starts our rainy season/ hurricane season. Oh well, we are not farmers, most farms in this state are in the middle and they seem to get the rain first whenever it is in the area, and that is a good thing I believe, since a major part of our economy depends on them surviving, the other main income for this state of course I bet you all know….not spring training, but it does seem to help, but it really is tourism, you sillies!
On that informative moment in time, and before I doze off I will wish you all a good night and to all count those blessings and I will too!
Speaking My Mind is about: Tobi, who is a middle aged, no, oh all right a slightly over the hill woman with all the imperfections that go with that, and this concerns her daily life's perceptions and experiences.
