Outside it's wet. It's been raining for three nights and three days. Rivers run alongside roads, and across them in places. We fall asleep to the rhythmic drumming on the red tin roof, and wake up late because it's so dark it doesn't feel like morning.
Inside we sift through boxes and rearrange our stuff against a new backdrop. I'm awaiting the courier's delivery that will mean I can begin work again, and in the meantime I drink coffee, knit special orders and type up recipes that are overdue for submission.
It's true, life does roll on.
Sounds much like our week last week down in VIC. I do like the rain, I just wish it wouldn't flood!
ReplyDeleteI like the rain, it's soothing. Hope you settle in quickly. Enjoy your time, inside from the rain. Hibernation is good xo
ReplyDeleteIt really has been so miserable...
ReplyDeleteHoping for sunny days ahead, where people feel more like smiling and enjoying life. The rain seems to bring so many people down.
I wouldn't mind it if I could stay curled up on the couch with a good book and a pot of tea! Perhaps that is what everyone else is thinking :)
It's a lot like our days except it's heat and sun keeping us indoors. I hope we get some rain because it will be something new and different. Also, we just really need the rain.
ReplyDeleteYes, it does. Rain or hail, sun or snow, time marches on. I love your pics. That beautiful old bed with spotty pillow and doll is divine. Cosy in and enjoy. Xx
ReplyDeleteThat first picture is so wet, so cold, so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteGirls are as always gorgeous little imps! Love how Pearl is such a mini-Lola
Love you lady. Enjoy your hibernation & inside time. Slowly, slowly. Thinking of you always.

Enjoying settling in...it looks like your new house is becoming a home already.
ReplyDeleteAnd stay warm and dry!
busy work can be tonic for the heart, love that the rain is keeping you company. thinking of you, sending hugs and love and a little california sunshine (in case you tire of the rain).

Lovely rain. I think there is nothing better than falling asleep to it. Hope you are getting settled in nicely into yoru new home. Indeed life does roll on. :)
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful and soothing post Greer. Wishing you a warm and relaxing rest of the week, enjoy your knitting and coffee x
ReplyDeleteOhh, a red tin roof! Sounds lovely - always liked the sound of the rain on a tin roof. I look forward to bringing my girls on a road trip to explore your new home!
ReplyDeleteSuch soothing pictures - I always like to be cosy indoors when it's raining outside. Glad you are settling in to your new rhythms. x
ReplyDeleteWhat gorgeous comparisons Greer :) I'm a sucker for rainy days inside. Especially when you spend the day in your jammies, drinking hot chocolate and in my case working on a quilt with an old Hollywood picture on the telly in the background. One that I've seen many times over :)
