The Shining Quiet

For the first time in almost ten days, the sun is shining!

As of yesterday afternoon, 8.5 inches of rain had fallen since the big yellow ball disappeared from the Alabama skies.

My spirit wilts in the grey, the gremlins in my mind feed on the gloom and become strong and loud and giddy. (Anxiety and panic should be quiet. It’s only polite when you’re unwanted visitors.)

Anyhow, the sun is back! The gloom is gone and the little nattering fiends are silent. What a wonderful blessing.

Until Tuesday (tomorrow is a travel day)…
