A Year Of Spanish!

Yesterday was one year studying Spanish on Duolingo. Every day for a year!

congrats to me!

We had spectacular thunder and lightning last night, and some good rain. Loud loud thunder like cannon. Bright wide streaks of lightning, bright and close.

Happy hump day!

Planets In A Row

I saw this this morning.

This morning, I got up and went outside and saw the exact same thing as in the picture above.

it was very cool. Already, at 5 till 5 in the morning, the sky is starting to get pink.

Tomorrow and Monday are holidays here, so this is the start of a long long weekend.

I got a perfect score on my Duolingo this morning, to make up for yesterday.

Jamaica Apple Tree

I’m worried about my Jamaica Apple Tree, pictured above. It seems to be unhappy, lots of brown leaves and not many new ones Are there any botanical doctors out there in my zillions of readers?

Have a good weekend! I may or may not post tomorrow. Havva good-un!

Stealing My Stars

I think this one should have been n right. For those who don’t use Duolingo for free, you start each day with 5 stars. And you can only make 5 mistakes and then it’s a hassle to keep your number of days streak going. (My streak is 280-something).

Sometimes it seems like they’re unfair a d try to steal my stars. I know it’s not true, but sometimes I feel like it, especially when I make dumb mistakes when I have only one or two stars left.

i went to bed early last night, and slept an extra 20 minutes this morning.

Friday and Monday are holidays here. I’m glad.

have a great day!

210 Duolingo Days

I meant to post at 200, but now it’s 210 days in a row I have been studying with Duolingo. I almost lost my streak once but found a way to earn Stars. (Once you run out of stars, they try to make you pay.) But by “practicing” lessons, you can earn Stars. Then you can complete a task in order to continue the streak.

My mother and sister fly out tomorrow. At first it seemed like 2 weeks was too long, but now it seems like 2 weeks is too short.

it’s another Monday, ugh. I slept ok, feel pretty good. I got a negative covid self-test this morning.(twice a week for work) and the weather is looking good for the next couple of days.

All is well. Have a good week too!

Hurricane Season Is Over!

At least I think it is. It is very cold and windy, the sea seems cold now (82⁰). I’m pretty sure that we can’t have any more hurricanes this year in Cayman.

2021 Hurricanes

I finally discovered how to make the degrees icon, all you do is press and hold the 0 (zero). I always used to go find one on the Internet and then copy and paste.

The weather here continues to be very windy and a 100% cloudy. And cold, At least for the next few days, Enjoy having the AC off and the windows open.

Today is my 100th day in a row of Spanish on Duolingo. I’ve studied Spanish pretty continuously since high school. I’m still on a beginner level though.

Happy hump day! Have a great day.
