All Over the World

I was looking at the Accuweather map on my Google home page and the whole country is again covered in clouds. So is Great Britain, Russia and China! South America also has a lot of cloud cover. I don't believe that the whole world is wreathed in heavy cloud cover. What a winter.

But it is warmer...

I stared this blog early this morning and it is still cloudy all over. Rain here all day yesterday, last night, today and tonight.

I'm having a bit of a melt down this evening. Started as I came by the cemetery. Doesn't help that I am simply wiped out. Exhaustion always brings that to the surface. Next week it D-day. My aunt and uncle are coming if the weather permits. If not, Sarah and Kathy from the writer's group say they are my back up plan. I will certainly take them up on it. I'm already feeling the dread.

I met with the Writer's group last night and that was fun but I could see we were all dead on our feet. We laughed and had a good time as we always do but there were these moments when everyone seemed to get quiet. I watch faces and I could see it on each of them. I could feel it on mine. They are such a good group of friends. I'm glad I have them.

Doug arrived early because he works here in town not far from where I live but lives in a neighboring town. So, after he gets off work he either has to stay at work until time for the meeting or find a place to go. He decided to come by early. A couple of the girls have done that once in a while. And I certainly don't mind. Anyway, I answered the door thinking it is one of the kids. I am fully dressed but my hair is in a towel. I screamed and he laughed at me and ask if he should leave and come back later. Of course, I didn't make him do that. And I laughed... while turning beet red. And why! You all know I have no shame about my appearance... I posted those hideous videos of me in curlers and me sick. LOL! Somehow it is a bit different when someone knocks on the door and sees you with a towel wrapped around your head.

So, note to self.... don't wash hair until after the meeting! LOL. The nice thing was that we got to sit and talk about Simon and the story. I got feedback on it. Doug is very good at that sort of thing. And I don't suppose it terrified him too terribly to see me at nearly my worst. Don't know if I mentioned it but he and his wife had invited me to dinner on Sunday. I shall get to meet the mysterious Mrs. Doug and the clan of four.

I'm off now. I'm absolutely exhausted. I noticed just now that the clouds are clearing a bit over the US. Maybe we can have some sunshine for the weekend!
