Soft guitar and piano music issue from my stereo, and its accompanied by the sound of hard rain. As the old timers used to say, it rains cats and dogs.
The combination of the music and rain is good for the soul and offers a gentle caress to tangled nerves. Now, if only I could concentrate on my book. This is a perfect day for the written word and a good cup of fresh hot coffee, almost.
I'll read a few lines and then the chatter of my lovely wife and my MIL intrude.
I've just slapped my book down in frustration. A man needs to know when he's whipped and display a white flag. So, I'll write a bit and read your blogs instead.
Standby, I shall visit soon.

You need a mancave :)
ReplyDeleteI'm in it...its just under invasion.
DeleteAh, then you need a bolt hole (I think that's they call it). Or a Boar's Nest.
ReplyDeleteGood point. A bolt hole with a very secure lock. Thanks, my good friend.
DeleteStanding by. It's reading weather here too. Staying home to take of my lovely wife's who's a tad under the weather. Better pour myself another cup of coffee.
ReplyDeleteI've left two set of tracks today on your blog...your wife needs a cup of tea.
DeleteSome days you just 'can't' win... :-)
ReplyDeleteGuess what...they're checking real estate ads...Lord help me.
DeleteEar plugs or muffs come to mind.
ReplyDeleteMaybe a walk in the rain....thanks, my friend.
DeleteStephen,
ReplyDeleteI have to go with Muddy Valley. Put the ear plugs in, then turn your music on = no more hear chatter :-)
I'll try...thanks, Sweet Sandy. Enjoy the garage sales.
DeleteHope you get some quiet time :) I love the sound of rain... :)
ReplyDeleteSo do I...rain makes for some fine sleep. Thanks, my sweet friend.
DeleteYou're a good man to do this for your wife. A lot of men wouldn't.
ReplyDeleteThank you, my friend. Guess a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do when he loves his wife.
DeleteMy two favorite times to read: When it's cold with a fire roaring and when it's raining. Unfortunately, in Texas I have to read a lot when it's not my favorite time. :)
ReplyDeleteSadly, I find myself in this position too...thanks, my good friend.
DeleteHave patience young man. . .have patience.
