It's still been raining until yesterday, but at least today, the sun seems to try to come through. Another good thing is that the temperature went up a little bit, so it's not feeling like fall anymore.

Samantha has been watching the street for a while now. Normally, the sun would be shining into this window all morning until midday, but she only got a little bit of sun when the sun was trying to come through for a few minutes. Though, watching the street is interesting either way.

Thanks to the constant bad weather, I keep getting migraines. I already have chronic migraine, which means that I have more migraine days in a month than migraine free days. But with the weather as it is, I keep waking up with one every day. So I get up and take my Triptan medication for the migraine, make myself a cup of strong coffee and sit on the balcony for the fresh air. This only when the migraine isn't as severe, so that I can tolerate the light a bit. If it's a bad one, I go straight back to bed after taking the medicine.

But with the cats on the balcony too, and the birds up and down from their feeder, it's a great distraction until the medicine kicks in.

Sonic likes to sit just a bit inside when the weather isn't too nice.

We were being watched as well, by a pigeon.

We have about 3 pairs of pigeons come by every day, it's always the same ones. And one of them likes to sit on our balcony for a bit, always on the same spot, which is a highlight for Murli, because she is fascinated by pigeons.

My migraine is gone thankfully, and I hope it will be a day without rain. It looks good so far!

Have a wonderful day everyone!
