May. 16, 2006 - It's Raining

Posted in The Daily Grind

It’s been raining for days.  We got so little snow this winter that drought was a common word of fear around here.  Not sure I’ll hear it again…from the weather man…..

In my life, however, there is a drought. Inside I am drowning and dry as a bone all at the same time.  Figure that one out.

Maybe that is normal for a military spouse left to her own while the hero goes out to “take care of the bad guys.”

Who knows.

If I don’t write for a while, its because I don’t know how to do this job.  Stay home and keep the fires burning?

With rain and brittle tinder at war within me, how can any fire stay lit?

My heart goes out to you in this difficult time. Please know that your sacrifice is not in vain, and it is not unappreciated. You will be in my prayers today.

The rain is getting to me, too. How can it be possible that it has been raining for almost a month? The glimses of sunshine the last couple of days have certainly helped, though.

I love to find other bloggers from Maine. Thanks for stopping by my blog.
