pawpaw

Now when you pick a pawpaw 
Or a prickly pear  
And you prick a raw paw  
Next time beware  
Don't pick the prickly pear by the paw  
When you pick a pear try to use the claw  
But you don't need to use the claw  
When you pick a pear of the big pawpaw

(I woke up yesterday morning with this little tongue twisting rhyme in my head.)

On a different note, Colt is trying to teach me how to enjoy these kinds of days - the dreary, overcast, rainy days. I know weather doesn't affect some people at all, but it really does a number on my attitude. I have often convinced myself that I'm having a bad day when the weather is like this. I don't do this on purpose; it just happens. If I could always be inside reading a book, writing a song, or playing the piano on these kinds of days, I'm certain I could enjoy them. Anyway, just my feelings on the weather. Does the weather influence your mood?
