Rainy view
There’s nothing quite like sitting indoors when it’s raining heavily outside. I have always loved it, it makes me feel so safe, but I haven’t been able to enjoy it much until moving out here and being at home. When I was working, the last thing I wanted was rain because it makes my hair go frizzy.
I love the view we have here. I can see bright weather over the hills, but above my house there’s a huge big metallic grey thunder cloud. We used to have a view over the sea. It was an uninterrupted, landscape view out of a Victorian bay window, and it did have a bit of a wow factor. But strangely we got very bored of it very quickly. At first we couldn’t quite figure out what it was that wasn’t quite right about it but then we realised how grey it was. It’s not like living somewhere where it’s sunny most of the time (not that I like sunny days much); the sea view was nearly always grey and dull. When it wasn’t, it was busy outside with people going to the beach. It was quite depressing. We decided we wanted a green view instead and we certainly got one here! Even when the weather is grey, the view here is still spectacular!
