First Monday

Posted on by

Since New Years day was on a weekend, today is the holiday (I hope). It’s good to start the first working day of the year with a holiday day off.

At least I hope it’s a day off, hope I’m not playing hookie on a workday!

i’ve been we working my way through a bag of Café Oro. Coffee from Honduras.

It has good flavor, but it is very dark and oily. Good flavor, but it looks very very strong when you pour it. I don’t regret buying it at all, but I worry about staining my teeth worse than they are already stained.

have a wonderful 2022 and a great work week!

Half Day

Posted on by

Today is my first Friday at work since September. I took every Friday in October November and December (except today) off. Use it or lose it leave.

Like I said before, I’m just ready to get this year done.

Today is my last workday of the year! Yeay!

The Weekend In Pictures

Posted on by

It was an OK weekend. I mowed the yard and did some spot painting, a little touching up here and there.

There was supposed to be an 800 m sea swim which was canceled, much to my disappointment.

Here are a few photos I took over the weekend.

Is a Crane that handles containers in our container yard. If you didn’t know what it was you probably couldn’t guess.
A place where I had a smoothie. They had nice looking pastries but didn’t seem too friendly.
The place where I sat to drink my smoothie and read my book for a little while.
My across the water view from my reading spot Sunday.

And now it’s Monday back-to-work. Over the weekend, I was thinking of ways to use my time more efficiently at work.

Have a fantastic week!

Dayjumble

Posted on by

I noticed that my posts are usually a day off. My Monday post is usually about the weekend, My Friday post is almost always about Thursday, Most of the posts (that rhymes) are about yesterday. I guess that’s the way it’s gotta be, unless I started posting in the evenings.

Below are four pictures from my scuba dive yesterday. Some of these are among my favorites that I’ve ever taken.

It was a good weekend, Friday night dinner club, Saturday mangrove festival in town…

Also Saturday was family fun day from work at the beach. It was fun with a lot of people and a lot of food and I want a $25 gasoline voucher playing bingo.

Sunday I went diving and to the beach ⛱. And had my regular beach pizza 🍕.

I didn’t do any of my chores. I didn’t paint, I didn’t clean, I didn’t mow, I didn’t trim the branches on the trees. And right now I don’t care.!

And now it’s Monday and I have a dental appointment today. Oh boy!

Have a great week!

No Movie Nite Tonight

Posted on by

Tonight the Westin movie is some musical. None of us are going.

I stayed up late (for me) cleaning the floor. It looks good, but it’s not shiny, like soap film on the floor. Maybe I’ll give it a swab with some plain water tonight..

Below are pics from yesterday, “front yard color”

I had a super good day yesterday. My brain seemed to work at peak efficiency and I worked extra hard and got a lot done, including finishing a major task done. I was complimented on the sound of my fast typing. I said “All ya gotta do is spell every word wrong, then go back and fix it, and and it sounds like you’re typing twice as fast.” They said they didn’t think so, which is true, I was kickin’ ass. I also did laundry, went grocery shopping and cleaned the floor.

Have a good Thursday, day before Friday!.

Beautiful Morning

Posted on by

it’s a beautiful morning. Too bad that camera can’t capture the sun coming up through the trees.

Not much to post about again today, I expect a busy, fulfilling day at work today.

This the season of daily rains, just not here in West Bay, (center of the universe). It can rain in town and not in West Bay, but when it rains in West Bay, it’s raining all over the world.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Helluva 10 Days

Posted on by

I’ve had a hell of a 10 days.

Last Saturday, (not day-before-yesterday, a week before that) I went to one of my best friends’s funeral.

Last Sunday, my wife told me she doesn’t love me anymore and wants a divorce.

Last week I went to a counsellor with the wife and felt like they were both ganged up on me.

I kind of had a meltdown at work after that because I’ve been feeling ignored, not part of the team, and when everyone, everyone except me. left to go to a meeting. I figure my same insanity that makes me invisible at work is the same insanity that makes my wife want to leave.

Last Friday, I took my cat to the vet and found out she had lymphoma (cancer) and there was nothing that could be done to save her. She wasn’t in pain, so I brought her home to live her life. She almost immediately disappeared and I assume she’s gone forever.

Things probably can’t get worse, but it might. I have an “executive physical” tomorrow, A very intensive physical exam. I think I’m ok but you never know.

But overall, I gotta be near the valley floor, sstarting to climb high again. Have a good week!

Bird Wants A Job?

Posted on by

The other day I got these shots of a bananaquit looking in my work door window. Probably admiring his reflection, or else maybe he (or she) wants a job.

It’s STILL cloudy and super windy here, it’s been almost a week. Hopefully, the extended forecast looks good for the weekend.

Have a great day!

Miscellaneous Repairs

Posted on by

As mentioned, I went.to Cayman Brac yesterday for work. It was a good trip and a long day.

Flying home on the Saab

The wife is going to the doctor’s today for some miscellaneous repairs too.

Today is a friends goodbye party. He got a new job. Free lunch at work!

Today is our first payday in about 6 weeks. December, we got paid early, because of Xmas, January, we got paid mid month to bridge the gap. That didn’t seem too bad, but it seems like a long time this month. Paid all the bills twice on one paycheck.

Looking forward to the weekend. Have a good-un!

Wednesday seems like Wednesday

Monday was a holiday, yesterday was the first workday of our week, but it was so long, it seems like two days.

We had a stupid meeting, that went late. They all do. I stayed late without complaining. Now I predict my boss will schedule all meetings for just-before-time-to-go-home.

Getting a little more rain these next few days. So the weather apps say.
