This past weekend was a rainy one. Well, off and on, but the off-and-on rainy weekends are still a washout for me because you can’t make plans, and it could start raining at any time. But a rainy day in South Carolina can be good for you.
There are plenty of things you can do that you may not do if it’s a sunny day.
Rainy Day In South Carolina
When rain is forecasted for the weekend, it’s a reason to hang out at the house and just do much of nothing. I often feel guilty if I do that, but rain gives me an excuse to do just that. Nothing. We all need to chill and relax every once in a while. Most of us don’t do that enough.
We are all pedaling as fast as we can and can’t stop. With the mortgage, car payment, insurance, groceries, and other expenses, we must keep going and make that dollar to live.
That’s why I welcome a good rain. I call it God’s privacy fence. Think about it: no one rings your doorbell when it’s raining. No friends, neighbors, no one. Unless it’s UPS with your item from Amazon that you thought you needed but will never use is being delivered.
We should have a couple of rainy days a week, even if it doesn’t rain. Do something for you. Being lazy isn’t a bad thing. We should do it more often.
Order a pizza and don’t feel guilty. Have a day drink, if you’re into that, sit on the back porch and take it all in. Just live in the moment. The laundry, that oil change, getting caught up on something at work, all of that can wait because it’s a rain day.
What are your favorite things to do on a rainy weekend? Some of these things are healthy.
