So Rainy

It's been a rainy time here in Pennsylvania since Friday night.   With the catastrophe Hurricane Ian left behind in Florida I'm thankful rain is all we are getting.  My heart breaks for the people down south.   I've watched live updates on Facebook from content creators I have been following and it's so devastating.   

This cold and rainy weather reminds me of when the kids were tiny and I was fully a stay-at-home mom.  We would snuggle under a blanket on the couch and watch a movie while sipping hot chocolate.   I certainly craved a day like that today.  Instead, we all hustled out the door early for school and work.  I ran register and cleaned up after messy elementary kids.  Now it's time for house cleaning, running errands and continuous busyness until later this evening when I can shower, slip into pajamas and slip under the blanket until falling asleep.
