In response to the Daily Post’s Writing Prompt https://dailypost.wordpress.com/dp_prompt/free-association/

Write down the first words that comes to mind when we say . . .. . . home.. . . soil.. . . rain.  Use those words in the title of your post.

Ok.  A prompt that makes me think first thing in the morning (before 6:00 am) before I’ve finished my first coffee.   You know the mind is fuzzy when you have to think about the first words that come to it.  Of course, the first words that came to mind were the words themselves (home, soil, rain), but then I thought, no.  It’s supposed to be other words.  Ok then.  Soil – well, it’s really muddy outside in the yard (which belongs to “home”) because it’s been raining a lot (ah…rain!), being January in Victoria.  So, I guess that’s the first thing that came to mind after a bit of mind-de-fuzzing.

I started this post before 6:00 am this morning, but won’t finish it until after work when I can take a quick picture of the yard (too dark now, being January in Victoria).  One of my posts wouldn’t be postable without a pic.

And now, here we go – it’s the end of the day and it’s dark again, but I managed to remember to snap this before the light completely disappeared.
