Days Of Unending Gloom

Today is another of those days that happens on the West Coast...or even maybe all of
Canada. Gloom ruling from the beginning to the end of the day...sometimes...as today...accompanied by a slow unfolding drizzle. On another day like this recently...I was trying to remember...if this kind of day ever happened in my country of origin...Guyana. What came to me was that there were days there...when the sky became very overcast...sometimes even building up to black clouds. Usually...however...this build up wouldn't take too long...and often...this would be followed by what they called down there..."bucket-a-drop" rain...i.e. extra large rain drops that pummelled you and left you soaked in seconds. Sometimes...after this...the sun would return. Yes...it does seem that these days of unending gloom...tend to happen...more in northern places than they do in the tropics. Always looking to harness negatives in affirmative ways...I recognised years ago...that these gloomy days...are great for digging into projects that have been lagging...so now is a good time for me to sign off...and get into project mode...and hope the sun returns one of these days.........Quester.
