De-Motivating Rains

The rains have set in. In Eastern Alaska, it's a blessing- for they've been cursed with a terrifying wildfire. But in Western Alaska the only thing they're bringing is a much needed quench of thirst for our springing plants. For me, they have only prolonged my spring-cleaning procrastination. During the sunny days I pushed cleaning aside in order to run about outside- playing with the pups and planting the garden. Now that I'm stuck indoors, the cloudy skies only give me even more of a lack of motivation to clean. The beat of the rain makes good company for book reading- which has become my only activity throughout the storm. But the sound of the watered windows leaves me no inspiration to do the much needed organizing my cabin is requiring.
