November Writing Challenge: Rainy Days

Rainy days and mondays always get me down

it's true. and that's ok. somedays it's good to let down and be down. then when the sun comes out the next day or two, there is a renewal in spirit, a shift, a mini re-birth. and this Scorpio Mars child with inner Bat medicine loves a good rebirth moment.

my favorite way to spend a rainy day is to have the day off first of all. then wake up early, after sleeping in some, say 8:30 or 9am. make coffee. pack a bowl. get into comfy house pants and warm cozy top. wake n bake, coffee in hand. listen to the rain against the window, read a little, feet up.  then get into a Project. not just a little puttering, but a Project. clean out and rearrange the entire closet. or cook a big pot of soup while baking some cornbread and brownies or other goodies. or set up to do an art project or craft project and work until late into the night, only stopping to watch SNL and fall asleep.

rainy days are home days. stay at home, stay in the home of myself. be comfortable, dry and wam, while the storm rages on outside. cocooned within the waves of water through the air, birthing a creation, or rebirthing the self one more time.
