FINALLY it's raining a nice steady rain that is predicted to last all day! The Pond level is way down - at least a foot, probably more like 18 inches, which doesn't sound like a lot. But if you know the Pond, for the first time ever I can remember, one can walk on the earth between the Pond and the cottage porch supports!
I'm reminded of my father these days. I remember once finding one of his diaries written toward the end of his life where the only information he wrote was concerned with the weather. Why is it we are so absorbed with weather? Could it be from our heritage when human beings lived with the sun as their clock? Their activities and their food depended on the sunlight and rain that fell on their property?
At any rate, I love the rainy days when I feel perfectly justified in staying inside and reading a romance novel without any guilt for not "getting something done." Also a great day for baking cookies!
So, after yoga class this morning, it's back to the house for a long quiet day! An opportunity to easily be in the present moment.
