RAIN CHECK

I've said it before and I'll say it again--I love the rain. I love to bundle up in front of a great bay window on a rainy day, hot cocoa in hand, and read a good book. lucky for me, it has been raining nonstop pretty much since we returned to the island last week. I'm sure my kindle is exhausted! at first, I was loving checking books off my reading list and having movie marathons with the mister and taking long afternoon naps to the sound of rain. but now, I am more than a little excited to get outdoors. you can imagine that most activities on a caribbean island sort of revolve around the sun.

during this extended bout of torrential downpour, mitch and I decided there was no reason we couldn't go out to the pool. after all, we'd been cooped up for so long and if you plan on getting in, you are going to get a little wet anyway. though I'll admit, I never did get all the way in. with no sun to warm me,  I'm a huge chicken. I added the hat for just a hint of irony. mitch thought it was pretty ridiculous since there wasn't a ray of sun in the sky. and he was right. but don't tell him I said so. 

on the bright side, the sun is out today (see what I did there?),  so let's all hope it stays awhile. long enough for us to renew our tans. and then I will gladly welcome the rain back with open arms. happy tuesday, everyone!

love, arielle
