52/412: Music
The rain began during my afternoon nap, and I woke to such a dimness that I thought it must be dusk, but it was barely half past four. Outside there were puddles on the driveway and sprinkles of rain splashing in them. I hurried out to check the mailbox, a slight breeze tugging at my umbrella, but fortunately there had been no mail to get soaked. I didn't get soaked either, and made some hot chocolate to drink while watching the rain splatter the leaves of my back yard shrubs.
It has rained almost constantly since I got up, and the forecast says rain all night and all day Tuesday, so it should be a good soaking for the wildflowers, at least where they haven't bloomed yet. We're even expecting a bit more snow in the mountains. It's pretty late in the season, but welcome nonetheless.
Of course I never got around to fixing dinner tonight, but might just make another pot of cocoa and some toast. It's not like I'm worried about my ass shrinking too much. Missing a meal or two is not on my worry list, unless my blood sugar crashes. Then I will get cranky, and I don't want to waste a lovely rainy day on crankiness. And I'm looking forward to having the music of rain sing me to sleep tonight.
