Today I woke up to the most glorious of sights—delightfully overcast, rainy goodness in DFW. And on a holiday Monday, no less...
Lest you think I'm being sarcastic about rainy days and Mondays not getting me down, let me assure you, I was, indeed, very happy. See, we don't get too many of these sorts of days in the oh-so-sunshine-y Metroplex, so when the rain does arrive, well, you want to take advantage of it. And make soup (or chili, in my case, the first big batch of the season).
Really, the only downside of this wet and cloudy Monday is that it's still pretty darn balmy and humid. But 75+ degrees or not, I decided to dress for the weather I wanted.
To cover up what's sure-to-be huge, Steel Magnolias hair, I'm sporting a green knit winter cap. Meanwhile, jeans, a black hoodie and furry boots officially complete the look, which for the record, was basically my uniform when I lived in St. Paul for four years. In Texas, however? Not so much.
Rainy days are also pretty great for writing, so that's what I'll probably spend the bulk of the day doing since my novel isn't going to write itself (incidentally, that doesn't mean I haven't imagined it doing just that...ha ha).
