Cloudy
The sky is gray and white and cloudy,
Sometimes I think it's hanging down on me.
And it's a hitchhike a hundred miles.
I'm a rag-a-muffin child.
Pointed finger-painted smile.
I left my shadow waiting down the road for me a while.

Good morning, all! The nice sunny weather didn't stick around, today is cloudy but I have to stay inside this morning anyway. The 'checkers' are coming around today; one group checks the fire detectors in each room to make sure they are working, and another group will check all the sinks and drains to make sure there are no blockages or leaks. Nice service! They even tell you just about to the hour when they will be at your door. This year both groups are coming on the same day, and within an hour of each other so I can leave the house by 11am! That's service!
I'll pass the time waiting for them with a big mug of East India Company's "Royal Breakfast" tea, a bowl of miso soup, and a grilled chicken breast. I really want to go walking today, so I'm going to 'walk to my chores!' The supermarket I want to go to is about 2km away, and if I take a round-about route there, I can get in a nice 8km walk... so long as it doesn't rain! Maybe I need to say some prayers to Charlie's 'Iron Goddess of Mercy...' Here's what she looked like yesterday...
