Well today is the first day in an entire week that the sun has been out. I blame my bad mood on the lack of vitamin D. I was feeling down-right miserable until I went outside before and the sun hit my face. Ah. All better. Dougy hates the rainy weather too. He doesn't get many good long walks when it rains non-stop. Anyway, since the sun was shining this arvo I put on my gumboots and took Dougy down to the soggy parklands for a run. He was positively joyous. He chased magpies and ran through puddles and his beard got all muddy. As for me, in my gumboots, I felt pretty invincible. When you wear gumboots you can go anywhere. No need to avoid puddles, in fact, you find yourself seeking out puddles and walking right through them. It's fun and I totally don't think it's a childish delight. Next time it rains in your neck of the woods, dust off the gumbees and try it. It's even more fun if your gumbees are fashionable; mine have Russian dolls on them so they are pretty sexy.
Okay, time for me to get ready for Thursday night tennis with the boyz...
