Winter Sunrise, Monday Mornings

The weather has been shocking since yesterday. The South Easterly wind has rolled in and is so noisy, I barely slept. Also, in a tragic accident, my bedroom window burst open and now has two massive cracks from hitting the wall. I'm scared all the glass will fall out and I will have to sleep in the blizzard instead of safely inside.

I have decided that Monday's definitely have the strangest weather movements. Along with the beautiful sunrise this morning, there was a huge double rainbow framing Table Mountain. I think Monday brings out these spectacles so we don't hate him quite so much. It works for me..

Both pictures were taken through dirty, rain splattered windows, so excuse all the grain..

 

"By the cracks of the skin I climbed to the top
I climbed the tree to see the world"

I've mentioned this song before but I still can't stop listening to it. I don't think I've heard anything more beautiful..

Mondays seem to always have the best sunrises. Now, I can't decide how I feel about this. Either, it makes me feel like the sun is mocking me on how crappy my life is every Monday, or it is trying to make me feel better as I roll out of bed for another long week at work. I actually think it's the latter, as despite the Monday gloom, the brilliant colours splashed across the sky do make me smile just a little...

As I finally dragged myself out of bed this morning, I sat up to see this beautiful sunrise through my window.
The looming gloom of Monday mornings, the prospects of a minimum of 45 hours in front of a computer, the constant beeping of my snoozed alarm. Only a splash of pink across a beautiful yellow/blue sky could put a smile on my face so early in the morning.

Despite my aching for some summer sun, I do love winter sunrises. They have more colours than the other seasons' and there is something about the winter chill, amongst all the magical patterns that leave me with a happy heart.

 This is how I feel today. Just bleh...
