Know what I woke up to this morning?
Rain.
I heard it even before my alarm.
And when my alarm went off it was still raining.
Pouring actually.
I poked my head out the window to assess the amount of rain and decided it was enough to water my garden for me.
Thank you, rain.
It was also enough to water my sister's garden for me.
Thanks again.
So I reset my alarm for an hour later and snuggled in under my duvet to enjoy the sound of the rain hitting my roof. I savored the delicious smell of earthy wetness. And I drifted off into semi-consciousness -- the best!
Now I am reading my book (for pleasure rather than studying!), drinking my 'feel relaxed' loose leaf tea, and feeling very relaxed.
It's my last day of hospital orientation today. We get to start late because it's only four hours instead of eight. My first shift on the ward (with a buddy nurse) is Monday.
Mmmm. I'm loving the rain.

I hope your last day of orientation is great today! :-)
wooohoo! I LOVED watching teh rain today - felt like 'home' :) So glad I dont have to water my garden - and tomorrow will be great to weed my garden (my 'soil' is clay. literally. its awful to weed let alone grow things!)
Ade, my soil is the pits too!!!! We got a fun tool called a stirrup hoe. I use it to loosen the soil and turn up the weeds and then I pick through the soil to get them out. I don't catch all of them, but I find it is much easier then fighting with the clay. And nothing in the ground is growing well -- my window boxes, on the other hand, are doing great!
