Bus Today
Yesterday I left my car for an annual inspection and an oil change. So I took the bus home last night and am taking the bus in this morning.
Work is too busy.
I’m trying to make a deal on a used Kindle here on the island. The seller refused to ask a price and wanted me to make an offer. So I made a low offer, never heard back. So I emailed again, “Hey, I never heard back from you, what’s the deal?” So I got a reply “I have an offer for $40. Does that work?” My reply, “I’ll give you $40, cash today”. For cryin’ out loud, tell me how much you want for it, I’ll give you the money, you give me the Kindle. Why the games?
That’s it, gotta go, I have to leave early to catch “Da Bus”
Vacation Is Over! :–(
Back to work today.
First of all, let me say that the piece of crap, loud noisy police helicopter has been hovering overhead,way up high, since about 10 till 6 AM. Right now it is so loud I can’t hear myself think. At least 30 minutes so far, hovering as still as they can.
Vacation was good, one week ago from this minute, I was on my way to Baltimore, MD. I saw my Mom, and a few friends, some of whom I hadn’t seen in 15 years.
I did come back a day early though, because of a massive snow storm threatening the North Eastern US.
So I’m returning to work after two days on the beach!

Frozen Pond at my Moms
I have to locate and sort all my pictures, there’s more coming.
I went to see a Navy friend in Delaware, I had a GPS in my rental car. I just entered their address and didn’t look at the map. Well, the GPS took me all the way around the Chesapeake Bay, instead of over the Rt 50 bridge, so the 2.5 hour trip took about 5 hours. I felt like a dummy. But it was a beautiful drive, except for the Baltimore slums along the way.
Glad to be back, Have a good week!
Last Working Day
Today is my last working day before vacation.
I feel like I’m making a bigger deal of it than it really is, I mean, it’s only 5 days, and I’m going north, into the cold cold cold.
I’m excited about going, I just think I’m building it up as too much in my mind.
Anyway, I should be busy at work today, then get me outta here!
Have a good day!
Back To Work! Back To WORK!
Back to work in 2015, at least it’s Friday. Not sure it’s a good thing, having the first workday being a Friday, or a taint of the good name Friday, having the first workday fall on it. I chose the former, as I am glad it’s not MONDAY!
We have a visitor from Minnesota for a week, my wife’s friend she met when she worked in Mexico. She’s nice, I like her. Minnesota…. No human could ever survive in Minnesota. It’s so cold, if you went outside naked, you would die.
We stayed home New Years, first year we didn’t have a party. We did walk up the road and saw some friends about 9PM though.
Last night I dreamed I took a friend to a drug/alcohol treatment center to drop them off. Then I couldn’t get out. The place was a fortress with hundreds, if not thousands, of “inmates”. I couldn’t get out because nobody could find the boss, who had the key to the front gate. She was passed out because she “took a shot of Valium”. Happy 24th AA birthday to me. 24 years without a drink and I’m not even thirsty! Yup, Jan 02, 1991.
That’s it for my first post of 2015. Happy New Year!
I’m Back!
Spotted Eagle Ray, Christmas Gift from The Wife
I’m headed back to work this morning after a nice break.
Today is a regular workday, tomorrow, half day I believe. Thursday, Holiday and Friday is FRIDAY!
Not much to report, Christmas was good. I can’t really account for my time, I went to the beach a couple of times, took a lot of naps. I didn’t accomplish anything, didn’t study, didn’t mow.
It was hard to wake up this morning, still dark, without the alarm, I’ve been sleeping till it got light.
Oh yeah, I have a toothache, a bad one. Top right, next to the back. Made an emergency trip to the dentist yesterday, got x-rays, a visual inspection, and was told they don’t see anything wrong. What do I do now? Another dentist? It hurts all the way up to my eye, nothing can touch it. Can’t sleep. Either wait for it to go away or go to another dentist..
That’s all for now, I’ll be catching up on my blog reading today! Have a good day!
Test Day
Today I take the first of 3 tests to get my real estate license. I need a 90% to pass.
Between you and me, I’m not as excited as I was a few weeks ago.
I never had good experiences with real estate agents. When I bought my house in the US, my agent was incompetent and I fired her and bought a house without an agent. Here in Cayman I bought my property without an agent. I never for one second considered using an agent.
I wonder what I was thinking.
Nevertheless, I will take a few more steps down this road before I decide. Might as well use the money I already spent on testing fees!
Have a good day!
Weekday Two, that’s why it’s TUEsday!
Rainy Tuesday put a serious hampering on my exercises this morning.

Although it will probably be a nice day.
My Mom wants me/us to go visit soon. The Wife has no vacation time left, I have 6 days. I’m thinking about going….
I got the contract for the real estate job. I have to sign it and pay the registration fees, Thursday is payday and I’m scheduled to take the contract and fees back then. (I always lose my warm fuzzies when it’s time to hand out the cash.) Hopefully this will grow into something that will soon replace my day job. It’s pretty exciting, but I don’t really want to work two jobs. You know me, I just want to go to the beach!
Now it’s not raining any more, and looks totally nice out. Have to check the weather app and make the scooter/car decision!
Have a good day!
Fri-Hii-Hiiiiiii-Day!
Yeay! It’s FRIDAY!
Pink sky, cool breeze, You can’t really see the pink because of the crappy camera. but it’s there. But you can feel the breeze, right?
Last night I slept all the way through, I didn’t even wake up once, till about 4:30, half hour before the alarm went off. I can’t remember the last time I slept all the way through the night. Years and years and years.
Here’s a picture of me sitting here, posting my post.
I don’t know if I mentioned it, but I got the real estate job. I have to take the tests and get registered and still have at least two months before I can start trying to make money. But it’s a route out of the box. Maybe I’ll be good at it.
Have a good weekend!!
My Life In A Box
I wake up, I go to work, I sit in a box all day, I say things like “Oh crap it’s Monday.” and “Happy Hump Day!” “Whew! can’t wait till Friday!” and “TGIF!”
Friday comes and I don’t give a shit about anything for a couple of days, then I go sit in my box for another week.
I save all year to take a week or two off work and maybe go somewhere, maybe I can’t afford it, so I stay home.
But I always go back in the box.
I want out. I have great life, I live in a great place, but something’s always been wrong, and I think this is it.
