Rain Tonight Brings Back Memories
We have had beautiful weather all week with temperatures in the seventies during the day and in the forties at night. Tonight it started raining and the rain brought back memories of April 17, thirty-three years ago. Today is the anniversary of my wedding and my thoughts went back through the years. We had a beautiful day and evening and about thirty minutes before the reception was over, it started raining. I have heard that it is bad luck if it rains on your wedding day and I have also heard that it is good luck. Since I do not believe in luck I never put any credibility in that old wives tale anyway. I had fifteen wonderful years of marriage and now have been widowed for eighteen years. Life never seems to turn out the way one plans, but I am happy and have wonderful memories. And best of all I have two great sons as a result of the marriage.
Today I had to run errands and after going to ten places, I was exhausted when I returned home about three thirty. I don’t know of anything that makes me more tired than going from place to place to do things that have to be done. I guess it is all that getting in and out of the car and walking around in a store or wherever. Pretty well shot the day but I probably would not have gotten that much done had I been at home.
