January is gone. Every year IS getting shorter. I remember turning 40, declaring that I guessed my life was about half over. Let me tell you, this second half is going a lot faster than that first half did!
Our cold front seems to be ending, I’m glad for that!
Have a great day!
It was a cold and windy weekend. It still is cold and very windy.
I’m getting ready to get the house painted, and I planned to spend Saturday on moving a large amount of tile and cinder blocks that were next to the house.. Well, I went for breakfast first with friends and had a flat tire and it pretty much took 3/4ths of the day to get that sorted out. So I ended up moving the material on Sunday, and I got it done Now I can start worrying about the money needed to paint he house..
I still am not supposed to scuba dive because of my tooth and bone graft. Next weekend oughta be OK.
On a positive note, I went out and had a solo dinner and watched Cincinnati win. Very pleasing. I grew up in Missouri, but as a boy, I saw the Bengals practice in Wilmington Ohio, where my Mom is from. Plus, in Missouri, most people were Cardinals fans and switched to KC when the Cards fled to Arizona.
it was the first NFL game I have seen in probably 2 or 3 years.
And now it’s back to work…. 🙁
Have a good week!!!
Friday: Dinner with about 20 friends. It was really fun. Saturday was a 800 meter sea swim.
Sunday morning I saw the moon set. Just like a sunset, except it was an (almost) full moon. I always wanted to see that my whole life and Sunday was the first time.
And i went diving Sunday as you probably guessed by the pictures. I have too many Flamingo Tongue pictures but I can’t stop taking pictures of them.
Monday, not looking too bad from here.
have a great week!
When I got home yesterday, I saw an email from my web page host about an outage. This is an email account not on my phone. Ergo, that’s why I was not being able to get on yesterday. So all’s well that ends well.
This morning, Daisy got off the leash. It’s a pinch collar and I saw it just drop off of her. Can they get old and become un-sprung?
And it’s Friday. I’m glad. This was my first full week since I started taking Fridays off in my “Use it or lose it scheme last year.
have a good, weekend! It is well deserved!
I slept comparatively well last night, thanks to Lois’s Prayers no doubt.Thank you.
It was a good day yesterday. Went diving and met the contractor (who actually showed up on time). He trimmed the edges of the tile and filled in a few spots missed by grout. I gotta say, the job looks good!
Now I’m ready to have a party!
Below are a few pictures from yesterday’s dive. Ya got your standard Queen Angel, your daily Flamingos Tongues, not to mention Cool Courtney and Bermuda Brian..
And now it’s ā nuther Monday, which I’m actually looking forward to.
Have a great week!
I switched back to my old phone,the new one just isn’t worth the hassle.
It’s a day off, use it or lose it vacation Friday. It’s almost 2022. Unbelievable.
Here it’s cloudy with a chance of rain. I’m going diving, I like it better when it’s sunny.
Remember December 13th, when I told you my motorcycle helmet broke? I ended up buying a new helmet. Here’s a picture of me wearing my new motorcycle helment. I didn’t know it had the pop down a visor until I got it. Surprisingly pleased with the new helmet. Very disappointed with the new phone, It’s like they offset each other.
Have a great weekend!
I saw my seahorses 3, 4 and 5 this week. They were all in about 10′ area, out in the sand flats between the mini reef and the drop off. They were all about 3″ tall I guess.
It was a good weekend, did some yard work and took some naps. I went out to dinner with the Friday night dinner club, but the Sunday pizza on the beach hasn’t really been happening lately. I liked that better than the Friday night dinners.
And now it’s back to work, have a good week.
When I tell someone my divorce is final they usually say “congratulations”. That’s not how I see it. I guess, for me people should say condolences. For her, congratulations are in order. I guess.
I’m kind of torn on how much personal stuff I should put here on this blog. On one hand, I don’t want it to be this emotional cry baby place, On the other hand I want to be able to come back in a year and know what was going on inside my head, something I can’t always do.
It’s another “use it or lose it” Friday, no plans, really.
I have a great weekend! I will!
Last night, around 3, there was a loud dogfight not too far from here. My two dogs, as well as the other million bajillion in the neighborhood, all went nuts. The dogfight lasted maybe 15 seconds max, but but the bajillion neighborhood dogs kept barking incessantly.
It seems like there is a lot more dogs in our neighborhood than I knew about or imagined. And who is just gonna let their dogs sit out in the yard and bark all night? Mine went in the kennel because they wouldn’t shut up, then they shut up.
It was a nice long weekend, I went out for Friday breakfast and beach, Saturday was an 800 m sea swim. I came in 4th out of 5 in my age category, I should have done a lot better. I was and still am extremely extremely disappointed. I need more training. I need to be able to double my breath rate.
Yesterday morning I went diving, and in the afternoon was the 1st night of Hanukkah.
When I write it here, it seems like a short weekend, but it was a good long weekend. I also mowed the yard and did a ton of laundry.
And now it’s back to work, have a good week!
I’m off today. Another use it or lose it Friday. (vacation I have to use by the end of the year or lose it)
I saw the eclipse last night (early this morning). It was pretty cool the Earth’s shadow covered the full moon almost completely.
Today I’m going to the eye doctor, I supposedly have cataracts in one eye and glaucoma in the other. We shall see.
Is other than that I have a day of beach, reading, shopping planned.
Is tomorrow is a shore dive and Sunday is a boat dive.
And that’s my weekend plan.
Have a great weekend!
