Another tropical storm is rolling through our area. Today we are expecting about 2 inches of rain with dreary skies and winds developing through the afternoon. Ick. In other words, it is a miserable weather day.
As the pandemic draws on, I find my moods increasingly influenced by the weather. If it is bright and sunny outside, I have a great day. I take the kids outside and we enjoy the fresh air and time together. But when it is rainy and we are stuck inside, I feel as if I'm in a cage. I become frustrated that we can't go anywhere and angry at those who gallivant throughout the community without a mask.
Even though we are stuck inside, I'm going to focus on staying positive. After the schoolwork is complete for the day, I think I'll throw in a movie and bake some cookies with the kids. I'm going to try to take it easy on my leg today because, if history is any indicator, I am going to experience phantom pain tonight. Hopefully limiting my walking will help to mitigate the pain tonight.
