The One Time the Weatherman Was Right
Pouring Rain On It's Way
I was out in the yard
It was a perfect day
I was doing some Fall cleaning
As I moved things from one spot to another
Reorganizing and fixing
Soon I got carried away
Pulling out more than I had time for
I decided to put tarps over things
Just incase it rained
I had two much stuff to cover the things properly
I didn't secure the tarps if there was high winds
The weather was never better
In the low 60's for this time of the year
Unseasonably warm
I was truly loving it
I have a shed that I cleaned out
We lose daylight at about 6:30 every day
I worked the night before and didn't get up and out the door till eleven o'clck
Still very tired I dragged my butt across the yard
I should have listened
The rain pouring buckets at four fifty four A.M. in the morning
Too late now
One tarp blew off and the other lifted up
Things are getting wet
I went out and temporary fixed it
I should of been more careful
If I didn't have so much stuff
I wouldn't have to organize it
Things we collect over the years
Aren't always easy for me to part with
I give some of them away
If things get wet or ruined I have no choice but to throw them away
Rain off and on all day
I often wondered if I was a nomad
Traveling from place to place
With nothing but the clothes on my back
I would I be happier
I'm not so sure
But I at least gave it a thought

Gypsy Rose Lee Our bodies are changing. So are our moods and attitudes. Go with the feeling and write about it. There is no one right way or wrong way to feel. It is a personal thing. I do know for me I rather be bouncing off the walls with a story I am trying to write. Even if it doesn't sound the best I gave it my all. Than moping around about things gone wrong. I don't like unhappy feelings and the sadness brings me down. Then I can't focus and feel blah. When I keep busy no matter how tired I am I feel little bits of joy. I feel and see every moment different and I like that feeling so much. Keep sharing your thoughts and feelings. I know the more you work through the bad and sad ones you will uncover the greatest feelings ready to burst out. Have a happy night.

I just don't really understand it but must be a sign of the times. The autumn rains have come and usually the gray days made me feel down. Now I welcome the rainy days wanting the grayness and feel terribly sad if the sun pokes out.
