This morning I woke up to the sound of rain, heavy drops, falling in clusters. But later, after I’d worked out and gotten dressed and opened the blinds, the skies were clean blue, as if the rain was a dream.

It’s cloudy again now. I wonder if more rain is expected.

Either way it will do what it will do. Also the AI, in trying to generate a pic for the post, decided today is “Wetesday,” and I wish I could have thought of that, with the slight edit to “Wetsday.”

Oh AI. Who knew it was developing a sense of humor?

I want to be in a “let’s get on with it,” mood but I am not. I am largely in a “I want a closet the size of the world to throw everything into and slam the door closed and forget it exists” mood.

It’s not exactly what you might call great for productivity.

As you might imagine.

But there are times when we must be productive, whether or not we feel productive.

I’ve told you before I have little games I’ll play with myself when I’m like this. I set timers; I give myself the choice between doing something I don’t want to do and doing something I really don’t want to do, and either way, something gets done.

And sometimes, I’m simply gentle with myself. I give myself little breaks with whatever show I’m into at the moment, usually a K-drama but not always.

Sometimes it feels like 78% of life is coaxing ourselves into things.

We’re such a strange species.

There are days when it feels like all the tired just gangs up on you at once. It makes me wonder what it would be like to be a hibernating species, though here, in the bottom end of June, I would have missed the boat with that one.

That does make me wonder if anyone hibernates to escape the heat. Hmm.

But no, we are not hibernators, only people, always people, making a mess of the world with one hand while some furious try to clean it up with the other.

This morning I find my optimism isn’t tied to my coffee consumption because I’m entering the bottom end of that too and that caffeine can-do hasn’t hit me yet.

I think, today, I’d like to blame the weather. It won’t mind.

Anyway, that’s it for me on this Wednesday, I hope you have a truly great day.

Buy me a cup of coffee!
