We’re supposed to get an inch and a half of rain overnight. That’s a major storm for us.

They had tented the drop-off area but it wasn’t needed just yet.

There had been two piles of stuff, good stuff, useful stuff that someone will love that I had deliberately placed in view of my knitting perch.

It was stymying me to have this thing that I wanted to get done left undone. With clouds low and darkening and after checking their times, I loaded up the car and finally made that Goodwill run. Nothing gets one going like a deadline. I did it! I beat the rain!

Look at all that cleared space to look at, opening up those creative juices.

At last I can really go knit.
