What is that in the sky?

Jun 22, 2009 12:27

For the first time in two (maybe more) weeks there is actual BLUE in the sky and this really bright light called, if I remember correctly, the sun. It's to get a break from the constant rain; it was starting to get depressing ( Read more... )

Tell me about it. But to top it off it's freezing as well down here. Yesterday the sun was out for a brief period though. Lets see if she can do it again today.

Love Sonia :)

Sincerely I must be part plant. I simply cannot function if it's been cloudy for more than two maybe three days.

It's amazing how life manages to interrupt writing. Tonight I finally approach an agency; maybe they can arrange for me to write more and have life less :)

Isn't it? And school is out on Wednesday for the summer so my writing will be confined to really strange and irregular hours.

I saw your book listed on Amazon(dot)com. Good luck to you!

The amount of rain this year has been insane, everywhere that I've heard from friends about it. We've hardly had 48 hours go by here without rain this month, which is not at all usual.

Vitamin D is a sanity-saver for me. My moods are very sunlight sensitive, but since I started taking vitamin D on cloudy days, I cope a lot better.

If the state of NJ declares a drought emergency this year, I will personally tell them they're are totally full of shit.

Thanks for the vitamin D tip. I can't handle dairy products, so sunlight is my only source of vitamin D. Maybe that has something to do with craving milk in spite of that problem.

Yeah for writing!

Boo for frogs and pond scum!

Frogs in the pool and a raccoon in the Have-a-Heart trap. When Lady Whitehart and wildlife collide, you know it's going to be interesting.

I know just what you mean, we were getting those same clouds all spring. At the end of March we were 6" below normal precipitation for the year after a cloudy dreary winter, now we are 6" above normal precipitation for the year. That means that we have made up the 6" we were short, gotten 6" of excess, and also the approximate 12" that would fall during April, May and June.

The fields are soggy or flooded, the hay crop is of poor quality, and all the other crops were planted late because of the weather. There are very few foals to be seen this year, I wonder if they are keeping them protected from the wet weather.

We did have sun today but the skies still had clouds from the storm that has been hovering off the coast and the blue was in patches. I think I've missed seeing blue in the skies more than I've missed the sun.
