Okay, now my mood is beginning to change and I'm getting a bit annoyed. Yes, the morning started off with bright sunshine so I was perky at the start of the day but around 11:00am it turned over cast and the bitter cold was no longer the least bit enjoyable for me. I still lots of the Galway residents out and about dressed moderately warm but I right now would like to put on every article of clothing in my closet and wear them all at the same time. I am being a big grump, I know but I have never admitted to liking the cold so my aggravation with it all should be expected.
Now that I got all the moaning and groaning off my chest I can now say that I am grateful for all I have and that there are people who are living on the streets in this weather and I have a warm place to go home to and a comfortable place in the library to sit and write so all-in-all I am doing fine. And I do have faith this cold spell will vacate the Island soon and the moderate, dry, sunny weather will return. I do have faith and I will continue to remind myself of that when my spirits begin to get low. I did take a few moments this morning on my walk to work to take a few pictures of plants covered by a layer of snow. They looked so beautiful and even perky despite the temporary weather change.
I'm spending the whole day in the library as I don't have students until tomorrow morning. I've got a few good lesson ideas so I'm happy to have some time to prepare them before I meet with my students again.
A I write this I am looking out a large picture window on the ground floor of the library and I could almost swear I saw a ray of sunshine peek around a gloomy cloud. It's possible so my fingers are crossed.
