Thankfully this summer has been sprinkled with goodness (visits from family and friends, trips out of town), because otherwise it’s been BLAH.\u00a0 Yes, we bought and sold a house.\u00a0 Yes, we moved.\u00a0 Yes, a lot has happened.\u00a0 But I still feel blah.\u00a0 Just blah.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I can’t help it.\u00a0 I had\u00a0been on a mad hunt to find the root cause of the blahs, but nothing seemed to make sense.\u00a0 Especially with everything that has gone on in our lives since the spring.\u00a0 It’s been a crazy, packed spring and summer for us.\u00a0 Exciting stuff has happened.\u00a0 Almost non-stop activity – to the point that we are exhausted and have barely even finished unpacking or setting up house yet.<\/p>\n
And then this morning it hit me.\u00a0 As I prepped for work (my first day back after being sick – an out-of-the-blue fever that knocked me on my ass over the weekend), I went about my usual routine, which involves checking the weather before deciding what to do with my frizz-pot hair that day.\u00a0 And on the weather map, again today, just over Ottawa, flashed a small storm cloud with lightning bolts and rain coming from it.\u00a0 Yup.\u00a0 Rain again.\u00a0 This time only a 40% chance, but this year, that means diddly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I haven’t done the research to back up my claims, but this summer’s rainfall HAS to be breaking some kind of record.\u00a0 It has to be.\u00a0 It’s ridiculous.\u00a0 And I think it’s is to blame for me feeling all down in the dumps – at a time in my life when\u00a0I just shouldn’t be.\u00a0 But the near constant\u00a0grey skies are depressing.\u00a0 And I can’t seem to shrug away the blues, when the forecast is calling for…more rain.<\/p>\n
I’ve never looked more forward to summer being over before in my life.\u00a0 Bring on the beauty of fall.\u00a0 That’ll shake me out of the blahs…won’t it?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
