Pledges

Roundabouts last June or so, when I realized just how bad the lack of rain was affecting the garden, I made a pledge to myself not to complain about rain. In fact, I even said I wouldn't complain at all when it was raining. About anything.

It's raining, so don't consider this next part a complaint, but rather a non-judgmental description.

It took me 1.5 hours to go the 25 miles from work to a work-related reception I went to. There was an accident along the route I travel that entirely closed the highway, so I sat for about 45 minutes without moving.
