A Windy Day

My body feels completely relaxed after two hours of the sweet stroking jets of the hot tub last night. I woke up early this morning to organize some papers and things on the computer and went out for Christmas shopping after noon. With a high winds advisory out, I can hear gusts of wind crashing against the window like waves against the shore, but that didn't stop shoppers on a busy holiday shopping weekend. Shoppers braved the high winds for that unique gift or holiday sale and the wind?...a mere annoyance.



Perhaps the wind
Wails so in winter for the summer's dead,
And all sad sounds are nature's funeral cries
For what has been is and not.
-George Eliot
