misery

the steady splatter of the rain on the leaves outside is a relaxing sound, there is a bird twittering too.

Bells sound in the grey wet saturday morning.

The family is asleep, but for the cat, who wanders about seeking attention, gives up, and goes off to continue sleeping on the sofa.

The eyes can no longer focus on the tiny script on the computer, glasses help. 

And the rain splatters on.

There is no rain jacket, it will probably be necessary to buy one later, otherwise going out for a walk will just be equivalent with getting soaked.

The whistle in the head

the tinnitus in the ears

and the general depression

lethargy

weakness

It is all there today.

The sound of the rain outside, the water gurgling in the gutters is pleasant.

If it were only not for the misery.

take the small pump spray and spray a coating of alcohol and tensides and whatever they are called onto the glasses. A formulation from the optician, it renders the glasses clean and grease-free after they have been wiped down with a tissue.

The rain outside dies down, and there is the sound of traffic in the distant parts of the town.
