October! At last we've reached the double-digits months run, and I am so happy. I know a lot of people love summer but I'm not one of them, so I am glorying in this almost-fall weather. It was 58°F out this morning! The humidity was still over 80% so it was not as...
Today I am having a lot of flashbacks to 2004 when Charlie swung a hard turn east at the last second and ripped through Central Florida. Yet, it was only close to be a cat4 when it landed, and by the time it destroyed everything we owned it was only a cat3. It was...
Life in a hurricane state: It looks like the panhandle area (where I live) is out of the danger zone, but that means south of us is going to get hit hard. I went through a cat3 with Charlie in '04 and it was devastating; the house we were co-renting wasn't totaled,...
This photo is from this weekend, but I noticed it last weekend. I just thought maybe it was a temporary closure for repairs or something, but no, looks like....Sonic on Monroe closed down? Not sure why, as it was always busy, although I did notice a constant "Now...
Today was a beautiful morning to officially kick off autumn after the equinox yesterday: 75°F and 75% humidity! Together they made for a downright pleasant morning, at at 7:45 am no less! Just two months ago I would not have left the house at that time if I could...
It's been awhile since I posted a photo of Keely, so here you go! Taken earlier this week when my friend Gina and I were eating on the porch at Venebites (yum!). The woman at the register saw I brought my doggo and hunted down an old plastic container to give her some...
A very slow morning after a very laid-back rest day yesterday. I think maybe the lethargy of the COVID booster on Wednesday is slow to dissipate? Just feels like I was a bit more tired on Friday and Saturday than I was expecting. Although Friday night was rough,...
Another lovely morning, although the humidity was up a smidge. Still, any day below 70°F is a good day in my book! If you don't follow me on socmed (FB or twitter, mostly) then the update of note is that I got the new COVID booster shot on Wednesday. It was the Pfizer...
AT LAST! It was only 68°F this morning! And only 74% humidity! SUCH BLISS! It is the first time it's gotten below 70°F in many, many months, and it was glorious. Keely and I were out by around 6:45 am for our usual stroll around Lake Ella, and with the delayed sunrise...
