Rainy Days & Mondays

Today sure is one of them…at least, where I live. But contrary to the lyrics of the Carpenters’ song bearing that same title, they don’t always get me down. In fact, sometimes they motivate me to buckle down and get to work. The sound of the rain, mixed in with my typing, makes for a pretty good soundtrack!

Another song on that soundtrack is my go-to “Rainy Day” tune, which I use with my students when we sing about the weather. I’ve been humming it ever since venturing out into the rain this morning, and thought I’d pass it along to you :)

After a weekend away, I have plenty to do to keep me busy on this rainy Monday. Aside from laundry and housecleaning, I have emails to return, videos to make, and presentations to prepare. Better get back to work!
