Another trip in vain
Sep. 9th, 2024 08:37 pm... and some much-needed relief.
( Long rant under the cut )
Despite the rain, I didn't give up my original plan of going to the craft supply discounter and did some comfort shopping, spending way more money than originally intended. Now I have chenille wires in the most lovely, striped hues, and lots of wooden beads that will serve as heads and hands of various handmade puppets. I think I've covered my needs for years in that area but hell, I needed something to cheer me up! Being the fool that I am, I also managed to buy a craft punch that I already had, but I'll gift that one on my friend Evie to play with her oldest grandson.
At least the weather had a major change today. Temperatures dropped by some 15 degrees, and we can breathe again. For the first time in two months, tonight I'll be able to use a proper pillow. It is still raining, mildly and quietly, which will be a true blessing for the fields and gardens. It was long overdue, and it's great that we have regular rain instead of quick downpours. The soil needs to be soaked.
