I’m typing this on my teeny tiny telephone keyboard using only one thumb.

I didn’t get my tablet back yesterday. I got off work at 4:30 and the tablet wasn’t ready till 5:15.

In the meantime, I’m typing this on my teeny tiny telephone keyboard using only one thumb.

Friday! Sunny weekend predicted!

I should have a very good payday in November, I’m in the work Christmas Club and that money will be deposited with my November pay. Plus we got a 5% pay raise (cost of living adjustment) with back pay since July, and THAT is going in with November payroll too.

I can use the money, seriously.

Have a great weekend!

Today I take my tablet in to have the screen replaced. I am dropping it off at 9AM and hopefully, if she pulls through, picking her up after work.

It’s a small crack, barely noticable, but I notice it. It was difficult to get a picture of it.

It’s almost the weekend. It’s supposed to be sunny too!

I didn’t particularly sleep well last night. I had a dream about a little circular saw that looked like a pizza cutter, but with circular saw teeth. And a beauty contest, but it wasn’t a beauty contest. Can’t really remember either dream.

Well, can’t think of too much more to say this morning, I hope in 24 hours, I’m here, posting on this tablet with a not-broken screen!
Have a great day!

Happy hump day! Here’s photos from our Stingray City trip last weekend.

Had a little rain yesterday, I didn’t get wet, but I was on my scooter. Undecided about today, they say it always rains around a full moon. Maybe yesterdays was it, maybe not. Looks nice now! Have a great day!

The wife and I have been watching “Death In Paradise“, a BBC show now playing on Netflix.

The wife picked it, and I think I like it more than she does. In fact, I don’t think she would have watched more than a couple episodes, if it weren’t for me. But now it’s growing on her. We’re still on season one. A stuffy British detective gets assigned to a Caribbean island and solves all these murders.

Above is a picture of me, taken by my wife on Sunday. That’s a brand-new hat that she got for me in Costa Rica, BTW. I still haven’t taken the pictures off my waterproof camera… Today I will, I rekkon. Then tomorrow I can do a “Wordless Wednesday”. I seldom know today, what I’m going to post tomorrow.

Nice weather, scooter riding day!

Have a wondeful day!

Yesterday, the wife and I went to Stingray City. I took my underwater camera, but haven’t retreived the photos yet. If there’s any good ones, I’ll post them later.

Of course, you already know about my Saturday. Now it’s Monday. This morning my neighbor had a flat tire in front of my house. I offered my can of Fix-A-Flat, which I always keep in my glove compartment, but this tire was split way up the side. So the dog and I went for our walk and when I came home, the car was moved to the side of the road.

I don’t know how many people it takes to change a tire, or how long, (yes I do, not long) but now there’s a whole bunch of my neighbors friends out there, playing music and being loud.

Last time there was a bunch of my neighbors friends hanging out in the street in ront of my house, my motorcycle and lawnmower were stolen. Time before that, just my lawnmower got stolen.

So I’m stressed and angry. The dog was out there barking at them, and just now the wife went and let her in, so she’ll be crabby because she got out of bed to let her in instead of me lettng her in.

Of course, theres no evidence that either time, my neighbors associates hanging out in the street in front of my house had anything to do with the stuff being stolen, probably just coincidence, but still, it’s messing up my morning.

My motorcycle getting stolen prompted us to get a security camera system installed.

And that’s my post for the day.

Have a great day! And week!

Saturday Evening Post! That would be a great name for a newspaper!

Above is a video of how I spent the morning, laying in the hammock in the back yard. This post could have also been entitled “I Should Have Been Mowing The Yard.”

The wife had to work today, and I’ve been thinking about breaking out the hammock, so today I did it. It was quite nice, laying out there, reading my book. All morning. I went out about 10, and shortly after noon, I felt the first drop of rain. By the time I got the hammock down, it was pouring.

I planted these two trees so I could hang the hammock from them, I wish I had placed them just a little further apart.

The cat was missing this morning, I had let her out, and didn’t know the wife had let her back in before going to work. I searched everywhere, and finally found her, back wall, bedroom closet. Her secret spot. It was completely black there, except for the camera flash.

After laying in the hammock, finding the cat and making a little lunch, I decided a nap was in order. I woke up at 5:21 PM, astounded I slept so long, from about 1 till after 5!

Tonight the wife and I are going to her friends birthday party. I think she mentioned a Mexican theme. I hope there’s tacos!

I did manage a wee bit of productivity today, I cleaned the birdbath and separated two plants, I had put the trailer from one nto a pot of dirt next to it, and it had rooted pretty good, so I snipped the crossovers and now have two separate plants.

In the short time I’ve been typing this, it has gone from “good light” to “completely dark”, so I have to post this and get ready for the party.

Have a great evening and Super Sunday!

Happy Friday!

I remember probably 30 years ago, I saw a $13 Monocular at WalMart. I thought to myself, “It’s pretty cool, but I don’t need it”. For three days, I couldn’t stop thinking about it. I laid awake all night, three nights. Finally, I went back and got it. At last! I could sleep again! And you know what? I still have it, I still think it’s the coolest thing on earth, and I still use it.

Now, I became obsessed with Pico Projectors, about 6 months ago or more. Don’t need it, got no real use for it, ordered it yesterday.

AAXA Technologies P2-A 130-Lumen WVGA LED Smart Pico Projector

It’s supposed to be delivered Monday, but I’m thinking I can get it today, if it arrives on the island. We had an old, big, super cheap projector but it’s disappeared around the house somewhere, wife and I looked for it a couple times, but it didn’t turn up. I don’t think it really would have mattered though, I was obsessed. Not with this particular model, just a pico projector.

I’m so excited!

This morning our walk (Sheba and mine) was kinda nasty. There was a garbage truck right behind us. We’d walk and get away, then it’d pull up right behind us and start loading peoples garbage, we’d almost get away, and it’d pull up behind us again. It was noisy and stinky.

Did I mention that it’s Friday? I’m so excited! Have a great weekend!

I’m reading this book again, I read it a long time ago. But a new, uncut version came out. (The preface says Steven King’s editor suggested he edit the first version.) It is super good. It’s over 3000 pages on my e-reader. It was good before, and it’s good again. I can’t put it down.

Have you read it? Pretty much everyone’s died off now, Trashcan Man just blew up the fuel tanks. The second half has begun or is ready to begin. I can’t wait to read more today.

It’s been a good week, so far. It’s rained every day, but sunny most of the time. Sunny beach lunch hours every day. On my walk in the dark this morning, there was lightning, but now it looks clearish. I gotta remember to buy coffee, I’m getting dangerously low on coffee. There’s tons of fancy coffee out there, but deep down inside, I like Cafe Bustello the best. Don’t tell my wife.

Have a great day!

I have the above two apps on my phone. The top one is from an app called Sunrise Sunset, the lower image is from an app called Daylight World Map. Both are great. Sunrise Sunset recently updated to include the moon position, however, last night I noticed in this app, the moon is in the wrong place.

I was sitting on my back porch laast night, same place I’m sitting now, and the moon was to the south, at its apogee. I whipped out my phone, and notice that on Sunrise Sunset, it shouldn’t be visible because it’s on the other side of the planet. Which it wasn’t.

Sunrise Sunset is a cool app, because the disc (in the top image) is movable. It has a lot of other features. It’s cool for a lot of other reasons too, but I won’t get into that now.

Daylight World Map is a super cool app too, but don’t get the paid version, because if you do, the advertiseements block at the bottom of the screen goes away, the image gets skewed and the discs that are the sun and moon become ovals, quite annoying. You can’t really see it in the image, because it’s from my teeny tiny phone, but on my tablet, it’s quite noticeable. It also has a widget, so you can have a miniature, resizable version of the map (minus sidebars) on your home screen.

So, I’m trying to contact the developer of Sunrise Sunset to find ot what’s wrong with the moon. Both images above were taken at the same time last night, (6:12 PM) but on Daylight World Map, the moveable cursor (intersection of the two red lines) was set on London, so it’s showing London time.

Both apps are super cool. Daylight World Map and Sunrise Sunset.

Have a great day!

Drawing a blank on a post this morning. Yesterday at work seemed like Tuesday, which is not a good thing. Because now it’s Tuesday and this has the makings for a long week.

Above is a rainbow I shot yesterday morning right before I headed to work. It’s about all I have for pics today.

I didn’t even really see my wife yesterday, I was gone before she got up, and asleep before she got home. I don’t like that when that happenes. She’s, in my opinion, getting screwed at work. She does all the events at the gallery where she works, I don’t know if it’s because she’s the new kid or what. I told her to put her foot down. I’ve been there.

I was out on the back porch posting and it started raining, now I’m inside posting. Google says mostly sunny, Cayman National Weather Servicesays 30% chance of rain, Weather In Cayman says sunny. It’s raining, who to believe? Definitely a drive-the-van-not-the-scooter day.

And now I have time for a bowl of cereal before work, so CIAO! Have a great day!
