dawn at Lake Ella

6/28/2022 – Tuesday

The State of Things pushed me into a depressed fugue state for most of the weekend, so no updates to this blog happened. All that did happen were far too many glasses of vodka…bad life choices but also, valid IMHO.

Anyway, here was a brilliant cloud from this morning which has inspired me back to the “grind”:

bright white towering pillar of a cloud over the road

I had to go stand in the median to take a good shot of it, but not much I can do about all the wires and street lights and cars. Nonetheless it’s the acme of “pre-storm clouds in Florida”! See the bus in the distance? That’s my old regular ride so the driver honked and laughed at me as she drove by. I guess I’m missed by some people!

Keely and I have been doing a pretty good job of avoiding the heat. The light blocking film I put up on all the windows has helped so, so much to keep my home somewhat cool without breaking the A/C, although I do keep it at 76°F. Keely does not like waiting until later in the evening to walk, though. At 5:00 pm sharp she’s nosing at me and trying to herd me into the living room, but generally it’s been too bright and hot to go out at that time. I tried ONCE and nearly overheated. I feel bad for making her wait to pee, but she absolutely will not pee on a pee pad, or even in our small yard. She does that elsewhere like a lady thank you very much. *cue her glaring at me*
