Misreading the signs

I had to make a sudden and unexpected journey yesterday. As I did so I saw a sign next to a building plot, which I read as

Open Sausage Land

Conjures up some strange images, certainly. The actual wording was, as you might expect, much less interesting - "open storage land".

I've also started reading the book by Caroline Smailes that I mentioned in the previous post. I had a certain amount of trepidation as I began reading 99 Reasons Why yesterday - not due to anything about the book itself, might I add. Just that the last couple of times I read her novels, I had to put them down and return to them at a much later date since they coincided with some rather challenging times that I was facing. So yesterday, as I travelled across the country to visit a loved one who'd had a sudden admission to hospital, I wondered, "what could possibly happen this time?"

May it just rain, not pour, this time.

Thank you Zhoen - the thought is much appreciated. The signs thus far are that you're right, too. Here's hoping, anyway.

Hei there housut, hope you're coping with life and its things okay today.

I had a look at your blog profile - why not? - and saw that under your favourite music, you'd listed, amongst others, the name of the well-known star Omelette Coleman (totally in conceptual-continuity keeping with one of the fun themes of your blog).

I thought you might appreciate, my dear.
