I HATE this weather. I detest it. I despise it. I abhor it. My head starts to rumble like the thunder after hours and days of hearing it in the backyard. Rain rain all the time. I have so much to do, so many things in the car to bring in. It seems every time I come home I leave everything in the car and run for cover. It is just depressing. Today I almost rolled off the road because the middle of the Loop was flooded so badly. It is too much at once. Too much. I am getting very down. It is hard to be bounce-around cheery when all there is is drear. I have all the lights on all day long. It never stops. Are there any cheery people in England? When my friend lived in England she was very down by all the weather. At the time I wanted to trade her climates. Now I live for sun.

In four days I will be back in sunny Southern California, but right now it feels like a life sentence is dreariness.

And I am supposed to have a MEGA garage sale tomorrow.
