Well I won't do that again!
I had some paid gardening work on Monday. I had planned to start at 12, but I felt so lethargic when I got up, I spent the morning willing it to rain , so I could legitimately cry off! The showers came and went but at the designated time, the sun was out and I had no excuse not to turn up. I arrived at the house and set to work. As always, I am fine once I get going. About ten minutes into my two hour stint, the deities belatedly answered my call and the heavens opened. I worked on for a while, slowly getting wetter and wetter, before deciding I should seek shelter until the shower had passed. After five minutes, it appeared to be letting up and I thought I should continue. No sooner had I recommenced my work, down came the rain again. This time, I felt I ought to carry on and within no time, I was soaked right through to the skin and feeling very uncomfortable. The shower lasted for about 15 minutes before the sun came out again but I fear the damage was done. I can feel a cold coming on - my first in over a year. I guess that serves me right for being so lazy!
I wrote another reasonable Morning Tale yesterday. It tripped very lightly and effortlessly from my pen - always a good sign! It is curiously titled "Ginger Nuts and Peedy Pants" - but I'm giving nothing away! As soon as I have submitted it for a competition, I will post it here in my fiction pages.
I'm just loving my spasmodic creativity at the moment!
