There´s something about the first real rainy days of autumn that plunge me into a semi meltdown state! The thing here is that we don´t get too many of them, one day it´s summer and before you can say umbrellas and raincoats it´s autumn and we´re looking out to skies that look like someone has crayoned them grey and dropped dirty water into the sea. I think that´s what does it - the sudden contrast and realisation that those long summer days are now long gone! Today is a rainy one and here I am messing around on facebook, drinking tea and eating things I shouldn´t, looking through recipes for biscuits and Xmas goodies, ( that I´ll be making in my dreams! ) rummaging around in a big box of photos laughing and remembering, watching TV until my brain is almost mush and peeping every now and then through the window to check on the rain. These first days of autumn always make me feel nostalgic for the rainy north of England, I blame it on thoughts by association! Rain to me means Manchester, Nerja is where the sun lives nearly all year round and when the sun is out there´s always somewhere to go ( or just sit and enjoy it) but in the teeming rain........
I´d love to say there are great smells coming from the kitchen where I´m baking yummmy things to eat but I would be lying to you, what there actually is, are dishes to be washed as I´m here writing this and have no intention of facing them any time soon! Tomorrow I´ll be back on track ( hopefully ) and out in the rain but for now it´s back to the tea and TV!!!!!
A life without direction is a life without passion.
