Starting to wonder...
Oct. 23rd, 2009 08:59 pm...how long it will take for green stuff to begin growing in my mane. Or if I'm likely to catch the dreaded rain-rot. Another inch of rain in the last 24 hours. The dry creek isn't dry any more. The nicely colored foliage that was evident on Wednesday and Thursday is mostly lying on the ground after almost 36 hours of continuous rain. Now the winds are picking up to remove the rest of it I think.
The bright side, if there is one, is that with the leaves off the trees, radio reception and transmission from this location improves. Heck, we might even be able to receive television (though there's nothing on it that we watch anyway.)
What with a canceled trip and a day off work, I was lazy today. Spent much time reading, spinning, and yawning. It was so gloomy and wet outside, I didn't want to go anywhere or do much of anything. I felt sleepy much of the day, but resisted the urge to nap because I knew it would mean I'd have trouble sleeping tonight. Gary got back home late this afternoon, which helps. I don't sleep well when I'm alone. After more than a quarter century of togetherness, I guess that makes sense.
The whole weekend lies ahead, and I have nothing planned because I wasn't going to be here. It's like an unexpected vacation in place of an expected one.
Oh, I snagged a cute looking plush off the internet, I think. It's actually from the gift shop of a wildlife charity (Snow Leopard Trust) and looks very cute in the photo.
