I was feeling down in the dumps and just felt like giving up.

Maybe you know the feeling, like life has just snuck up and blind-sided you. So, to commiserate with my mood, I decided to find a place that fell in line with my funk. So, I whipped out my handy "Interesting Places to Visit" notecard that I picked up at SL6B and checked out the section under Rainy / Water sims. The first one listed was the Cream Shop sim so I took the next taxi that didn't run me over and checked it out.



Oh yes, this place was absolutely perfect! It was raining like mad with water sheeting off the windows and canopies, lighting and thunder shaking the place up and even puddles that made great splashing sounds when I walked through them.



First thing I did was to find a nice place to sit with a book and a cup of tea and try to be more an observer of the rain rather than the creator of it. I'm no stranger to the rain and I know that, as in most things, this too shall pass.

Once I felt a little more centered, I looked around in the eclectic shop that shares the name of the sim. There were the ever present clothes, hair and fashion accessories but there was also funky furniture, a deer to pose upon, a mini acting stage, dress forms, trash bags (as seen in first pic) and...umbrellas! Just what I needed!



Rain with come and rain will go and sometimes the best you can do is find a bit of shelter and wait out the storm.
