Soak up sun

Optimism found me out in the sun, never mind the temperature was less than fifty degrees. After having a week of clouds I squinted into the bright sunshine when I returned from the library at one pm. How could I possibly sit at the computer? Well I did not. There are many more leaves to rake and so I did. And to take most advantage I stripped down to as few clothes as the temperature warranted and spent several hours raking and soaking. My jawbones ached as they always do when I breathe chilly air through my mouth which I often do while hard at work. I filled the yard waste bin, never mind that it should have been on the sidewalk before seven am. So I am a week ahead, the bin is full for next Wednesday. Furthermore there are piles ready to fill it again. If tomorrow is sunny I can soak up more sun. No work required.
