I´m (Not) Singing In The Rain



So much for the planned cozy weekend.
I could not stand it with Ingo being sick again.

Grabbed my rain-trousers and rain-jacket and off I went.



Sure, I knew this wasn´t ideal.
Sure I was hoping to not find Ingo flat on the floor again, when I come back.
But then... when I´m working I´m gone for hours, too, right?

And the partially strong wind was just right to clear my mind...



I got a stitch from "power-walking" this time, so a break was due.



Thanks to the rain-trousers I could kneel down to take some macro-shots... (or so I thought)



The break did some good, I went for a second round, occationally stopping for a pic, enjoying the strong wind :-)



There were about 4 other people out and about, three had to, they had a dog...
So, it was quite quiet, I love that...



The fourth was a serious jogger.
He put it simple: Short trousers instead of rain-trousers! After all it was 11C, not too bad, right?



Wise jogger that was.
I had to find out my rain-jacket, that I bought 1999, when footy-season started, isn´t rainproof anymore - wasn´t just the feeling of being wet!
After such a short while, really?! ;-)
Same goes for my rain-trousers I bought when I started studying, 1995.

Guess it´s time for new rain-clothes, huh?
Thankfully it was just light rain.

We had a 38C on Saturday Iris, 'orrible! but back to cooler and even a bit of rain this week hurrah! Sounds like you got a little damp on your walk, your rain clothes have done you well, definitely time for new. Is Ingo alright?

38C, Grace, that´s bliss ;-)
Ingo is signed sick this week, another blood test at the other doc might clear what´s going on, I hope! Shoot, that was really horrible, I felt so helpless.

You did well to get out in weather like that.

Sorry to hear Ingo is still not well Iris. Hope all is sorted out soon.
