We have a MONSTER thunderstorm rolling in. The skies went from bright to nearly pitch black, so I am shutting down my computer. Take care! V Sign in to see full entry.

It's been a good start to the day, and I am hoping it carries on through the day. Today is my 69th birthday, and my wife took me downtown for breakfast. She even paid for it! LOL. She doesn't know that Fed-Ex is bringing her a gift this afternoon. She has been telling me she needed a new set of... Sign in to see full entry.

You Are Gonna Wanna See This
It is a beautiful day in northern Florida. It's supposed to hit 93 today, but the humidity level is waaaay down. As I posted yesterday, we took the day off and I think I may have allowed my body to fight off an annoying and nasty little bug that had been making me feel "blah" for the last two weeks....

I woke up with a slightly stuffy nose this morning that probably came from sitting outside in the rain yesterday. We didn't get wet, but it sure was damp! It seems to be pretty decent today, with "only" a high of 90. In the UP, that would be blistering hot. In Florida, that's just another day in... Sign in to see full entry.

I made contact with an old (1970 high school schoolmate) friend a few weeks ago, and this morning, she called me. We had ridden the same school bus for ten years and we had even dated in high school for a few months. She is living in South Carolina now and is married for the second time. We had a...

Silly Is As Silly Does
If it weren't for phone calls, I'd have a lot of this stuff done much earlier, but it seems since I've been down here, I'm getting more morning calls. Oh well. It's a bit on the warm side, but nowhere near as bad as it has been lately. The extended forecast calls for a lot more weather like today vs... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning! For the first time in several months, it is not 90 degrees at 11 in the morning. It is about 77, and with a big storm sitting just south of us, it will not get hot today. It is a welcome change. The wife is busy 'cleaning up after me,' meaning she is doing my laundry while she is doing... Sign in to see full entry.

*Sigh.* I had a nice post all set to post when I got a phone call. While I was sitting here talking to some clown that was doing nothing but wasting my time, I accidentally closed the tab, and there went my post. Long story short: My wife is home and we have been talking like the teenagers at heart... Sign in to see full entry.

"WE" are home! Lisa's flight was fifteen minutes late because of the huge thunderstorm over the Valdosta (Georgia) area and the twenty-five-minute trip home was closer to fifty minutes for the same reason, but we are home. It is raining extremely hard here, and I need to get shut down before we lose... Sign in to see full entry.
