She stood in the storm, and when the wind did not blow her way, she adjusted her sails.
– Elizabeth Edwards
This quote is for all those who have had to be stronger, and endure longer, than they ever thought possible.
Take a step back, breathe and try again.
You will weather the storm.
An appropriate quote for today, as winter storms batter the Cape: Finally! We desperately need the rain.
Great you are getting rain! 🙂
We continue to be dry as a bone here… with unceasing turbulent winds.

As to your dry winds – is it like a mistral and drives everyone crazy? 🙂
