RE: I'll Take the Shortcut

in #life11 months ago

I'd be happy to do some sea-wall sitting as well and rough weather can make it more appealing; there's something primal about it and watching a storm roll in can be an amazing experience.

Sort:  

We are getting an unusual December version of a tropical storm this weekend. I am enjoying it. There is something primal about it. And somehow primal feels good. It is a relief, or a release maybe. Sometimes things are too tidy in life, and you just need a little angry ocean.

we've had a strange sort of December in my area too, loads of thunder and lightening and rain too, which is unusual. It could be worse though, like up where my brother lives in far north Queensland (tropics) where they're being battered by a cyclone.

Primal can be good, humans are always trying to tame things, their surrounds, nature and all...sometimes it's good to defer to primordial feelings and being out in a storm, the attitude brought about by an impending storm can be quite enjoyable.

I went to sleep last night next to the glow of my Christmas tree while reading a book and listening to the rain attacking the ground. We got over 6 inches. So unusual for December, it was like summer and winter blended together. I hope you are enjoying your thunderstorms and your warm December.

That seems like a nice image, falling asleep with a book next to the Christmas tree while the rain falls outside. I'd take some of that action right about now. (Been a long and rather hellish day to be honest.)

I have joined your club - it has been a long day here in this time zone. And not done yet. The dishes await me. There has never been a more steadfast companion than a sink full of dirty dishes. They leave, but they always come back. I hope your day today is better.

Hey there...dishes. I have a dishwasher but also wash by hand now and then. These days I tend to do the washing and drying but when I was a kid I always wanted to wash because I could get done and bugger off to play Lego faster. #wellthoughtoutplan

I hope your nails and hands survived the hand washing...or that you had some moisturiser for afterwards.

Yeah, a better day today...tomorrow (Wednesday) is my last for this year...so much to do but I'll get it done and (hopefully) not have to do any work for several days until it all kicks off again.

The hands pulled through, although I think they are warriors that never really get a proper break. I would have it no other way :)

I hope that Wednesday you mentioned was a good one. I'm sure you can't recall now to confirm...
