Sky and Walls the Same Shade

Jun 23, 2018 11:30

A rough night, poor sleep, nightmares, and then I awoke to a thunderstorm hammering the mountain. These grey walls devour almost every photon, and cloudy days are like the last moments of twilight. It's cooler today, more storms on the way, but the sun will be back tomorrow ( Read more... )

I'm sure it just might be coincidence, but thanks for seeming like you get me. Without us even interacting, and whatnot.

That helps to know, what you said about Gone With the Wind. So far I've tried twice to read it and haven't managed to finish it yet. I did know the book is far more stark than the film (which I've seen bits of). Good that I won't have to like Scarlett O'Hara to appreciate the book.

(The copy of the book I have is a 1939 movie tie-in edition I got from my dad's parents years ago, with photos from the film and with the text laid out in columns more like a Bible.)

Despite all the moving stuff that went on, I am happy you're back home and there will be no more RI winters for you. B'ham as an idea of place feels like home to me but none of my people are there. I've lived away so long it is only an abstract thought now.

I recently had that first cold store/hot car experience of the Summer. Grocery store AC was so cold my arthritic hands, feet, and knees were stiff and hurting, I was limping. hen I get to the car and can sit in the dry heat, the heat goes to the bones and feels so good in the joints - that is until I had a hot flash. But those moments of baking in the heat to ease the pain from the cold...

Those are some creepy drawings. But not in a bad way.

I love those dragons! Vivid, troublemaking critters.

I'm happy to know that your move has taken you safely back to the South.
