Rain, Lessons and Messes
Yes, I know interesting combination. What can I say except that that has been my life the past few weeks.
Well we’ll tackle rain first. Rain. Well other than water in the liquid form dropping from the sky and an important part of the earth, it has been putting a damper (yes a pun shameless I know) on my gardening efforts. Yes I won’t say accomplishments that would be putting the produce ahead of the weeds. Of which I have a few. So I need to get into the garden to rid it of those few weeds. They breed worse than rabbits. Rain. It has kept a horde of children in my house playing. That is not a bad thing it is the mess part I don’t like. The rain has also made it humid in my little corner of the world. SOmething I am not crazy about expeciallly as it gets into the 80’s.
Lessons. yes well who couldn’t use a lesson or two. I think there is always something worth learning. I decided to take a free online writing class. What an adventure. I am enjoying it. It will be over in a few days and I am saddened by this. My family is probably not sad since I have spent a lot more time on the computer, more time reading and more time writing. I has been odd for me to say I have homework to do. I haven’t had that since college and high school. Been a while. Though I am thinking about taking more courses. Who knows what I could learn. No I still don’t know what I want to be when I grow up. Becoming a writer is looking good. Little catch there though… someone has to like what you write enough to publish it and then a whole bunch of someones need to like what you write enough to buy it and read it. There is also writing. Not sure I am any good at that.
Messes. Well I am Queen of messes. See rainy day bit earlier. Then I am good at making my own and not being very good at picking them up. Plus then there are kids things that I am not good at taking care of. Someone told me I need to thin out. Yeah umm trying. Not easy. Not when I am running after kids anyway. Yeah OK probably THE only one on the planet with this problem.
So there you have it. The rain, the lessons and the messes. Sure not glamorous. But it is my life.
