Hurricane Milton, category 5 hurricane is due to hit the Tampa area about 1:00 tomorrow morning. That’s late tonight. Millions of people are being evacuated. Tampa has not had a direct hit by a hurricane since 1921.

I wish everybody up in Florida good luck through this storm. To me it seems incredible that it is predicted to go all the way across Florida and still maintain hurricane strength until it comes out on the Atlantic Ocean. Below, Milton from. space.

Good luck everyone!

I found evidence of a leak in my roof. Same place it leaked before, more than a decade ago. In this day and age of people losing everything on 10 feet deep flooding and getting blown away by hurricanes, I think I’ll be able to handle it alright.

Lousy sleep last night.

Have a good day!

Saturday I told myself I was going to mow the front yard, only the front yard, I’m not mowing the back till Sunday. I ended up mowing the whole thing. Then Sunday, I went to a 90 minute yoga class taught by my meditation instructor, then went and had a nice breakfast.

I made it home in the early afternoon and finished my book and lazed around, took a nap, etc. All the while berating myself for wasting my weekend, wasting my life and accomplishing nothing. If I’d saved the back yard for Sunday, I would have had a feeling of accomplishment and satisfaction for a job well done, time well spent, a life well lived.

I treat myself worse than I treat anybody else. And nobody is crueler in words and opinion than I am of myself…. It has been pointed out to me before, sometimes I can see it but most the time I can’t.

Here’s a sunrise photo from the weekend.

Have a great week!

I had a really nice day yesterday with my visitors. It started off rainy, but the weather cooperated and it turned into a really nice day.

I do have some bad news for you though.

They moved International Taco Day and we missed it this year. Although it will be nice in the future to always have an International Taco Tuesday, that really doesn’t help us today .

We were not properly informed and drastic action may seem necessary, but after a night of reflection, I urge you to find peaceful acceptance within yourselves. Yes,we were seriously wronged, but we can survive.

Have a great.weekend! And eat some tacos anyway!

Today I’m off work. I put in for a vacation day because I have a high school friend visiting with her grandkids.

It’s quite cloudy and rainy and cold here. I’m not sure what we’re going to do. My answer is coffee first, then anything they want!

Any better ideas?

Have a great day!

Last night I went on a little one mile bike ride. I forgot to turn the ride off on my watch. I didn’t notice till this morning. So it recorded me as being on a bike ride all night

Since the watch was in ride mode,which o am not particularly interested in,it didn’t record my sleep, which I am particularly interested in.

Hummmphh

(I travelled 15 Kilometers in my sleep??!!??)

Hqppy Hump Day!

This morning , near the beach there was what looked like a rabbit. It was totally dark, and my camera had about a 10 second exposure time on the photos. Not to mention an excited dog pulling on the leash, destabilizing the picture process.

It didn’t seem afraid of us, in fact I almost stepped on it about the same time I saw it.

A rabbit?
