RAIN RAIN RAIN


Ahhhhh I love the rain - I get so inspired on gloomy days? Anybody else like that?
BUT I also just got drenched trying to bring the horses inside the barn - they didn't seem to care about the water coming from the sky so I stood outside with them for a while seeing and feeling the moment as they do. No rush, no stress, no worries - just grazing, grazing, grazing.
The temperature is warm, the air smells fresh, I listen to the horses contentedly chewing the grass as the raindrops gently massage my head and shoulders. Turning to quietly slip away so as not to disturb their natural balance, I step squarely into a pile of squishy brown, (which changes that fresh air smell to something much more natural) at the same time I drop my ringing cel phone right into a flowing stream of water. As I reach down to pick it up, my playful baby goat rears up to successfully butt heads with me which knocks me on my gr-ass.
By the time I get up to the house I'm soaked from head to toe and smell like the wrong part of a farm. When is this damn rain gonna stop?
