We have a huge spider web right outside our front door. Pretty impressive!
The rain and storms continue. We’d already been having storms and rain, but yesterday, and I suppose today, are due to tropical storm Elsa moving up the east coast. It’s been endless. Yes, I know some of you would love all this rain. Nevertheless, we are water logged and the storms have been huge and we were caught in the middle of a foggy and powerful thunderstorm yesterday and we could barely see five feet in front of the car. There are flood advisories all over this region and if you saw any pictures from NYC yesterday, you’ll have seen the flooding there. Too much unrelenting rain and wind.
Right here at the cottage, my worry has been about mama robin, but she has weathered the storm. When I came downstairs this morning, I peered out the window to see if she was on the nest but I had to wait until it got a little lighter. Then I saw her. She’s amazing. Pelted with wind and rain for hours at a time and she remains on the nest. She’s my hero.
So basically, as boring as it might be, that’s been our life for the pasts 48 hours and it will continue through the day today. Rain. Wind. Thunderstorms. Lightning. And repeat.
My kingdom for some sun.
Because of all of that and having to run the a/c as well as taping Don’s audition today, I haven’t been able to get back to my painting. Hopefully, today. I need a little creative time.
Sorry these last few posts have been so boring, but that’s our life at the moment.
Stay safe.
Happy Friday.
