....is having reality slap you upside the head!! hahaha
I awoke to a downpour of rain outside this morning. This is not the odd scattered shower that was forecast. Nope! This is a mighty deluge guaranteed to have my basement sprouting leaks again by after lunch. Aiiii yiiiii....TEEMING doesn't describe the pounding rainfall out there this morning. Hopefully it will ease off a bit before long.
I certainly did enjoy my summer of weather denial. The drought, the ensuing lack of mosquito activity and the lack of parking lot puddles helping to keep the geese over at the lake where they belong...well....these are some of the factors that made for the best summer I have had in SK in years!!
Now hits the reality of oncoming winter. I felt completely depressed as I looked out at the rain after crawling out of bed to the sound of pounding drops on the roof. That only lasted about 5 minutes though because all ready I am thinking past the fall and winter and making plans to enjoy next summer....perhaps it will be a dry and warm and wonderful as this year's has been!
It seems the perfect day to stay warm by doing some house cleaning. There are a few overripe apples sitting in the birchbark bowl on the kitchen counter...perhaps a great day to peel and chop them up for a Poor Man's Pudding to greet my husband with when he arrives home tomorrow.
It may be a very productive and pleasant day in this suite. Time to get at it!
