I broke down and turned on the heat last night to bring the temp up to 64. It was below 60 inside when I got home yesterday. Just a few degrees made a huge difference in the comfort level. It goes down to 60 at night to make it comfortable for sleeping.

Well, I think if the preservation of the soul is found in the preservation of the wilderness, then you ought to spread some honey on your counter top and preserve those ants, lol. Have a good day everyone.

hmmm, what will I miss about Florida....

lemmesee,

shorts in February is nice, and even though I'm not just a huge "beach freak" I do like walking and listening to the waves now and then.

But I miss the seasons while I'm down here.

NS: i was supposed to have moved already, however there are no rental trucks available, so I'm on hold. kinda frustrating, but the employers on both ends are very understanding. This was an unexpected disruption caused mainly by the twin storms.

yeah, actually this was the first morning in a long time that my car didn't look like it just finished raining when I went outside. Normally, I have to run the wipers before I can even back out of the parking space from the dew overnight.

You have Broken Lizard on your lap? Well, now....

Good morning everyone. Really powerful coffee this a.m. Evidently I can't even make coffee without first having cofee. I lost track of how many scoops I put in and must have over done it. A thick, black, tarry liquid...hhhmmmm. I'll get lots of yard work done today and probably clean the house too (if I can stop typing).

Good morning. Lucky, lucky. I hit the Casino in Danbury, Wi over the weekend (it's the same one where Nowslimmer got in the fight and ended up in the Pokey) and won $600. Looks like I can get that digital camera now and maybe some fleece.

Great Jupiter, that's good news. You might want to save that cash for a few motel rooms along the AT. Most everyone leaves the trail for a few nights of R&R.

Only couple of weeks til daylight savings time? Of course it doesn't help to save daylight when you're in the office all day. Go to work in the dark, come home in the dark. See your yard on the weekends!:-{

Thanks, Spirit Coyote. That's nice news just when I'm ready to hit the woods. I guess the hurricanes were my pleasant weather. I didn't realize how good I had it!
