How is your day Today? Chat about your plans and achievements 2026....

It's 5pm and it's still gloriously sunny.. 🌞 I'm really irritated that I didn't get going out...

Parcel arrived... I was just coming out of the barn and I heard a loud crash.. and the delivery person for the first time for Amazon... had thrown it over my side gate...... if only they always did that I would have felt safe enough to go out, but Amazon are the only delivery drivers who never do that.. all other delivery compamies do...
I've even spoken to customer services about it and they assured me that a note to that effect goes on all my deliveries.. but they just ignore it..

Anyway in the meantime..my kitchen is sparkling... I got a few jobs done... and it will be dark again in an hour !
 
Woke up this morning in Antelope Valley and with violent gusting winds of 20 to 30 mph, at 5:45am PDT, drove mostly with my cruise control set to 75 mph in light Saturday traffic on I5, 310 miles north back home, arriving at 10:55am. Unpacked, thoroughly showered and am now downloading off SD media, about an hours worth of image files from the last 4 days in the field. Expect results will be one of my best wildflower landscape photo trips ever.

In the mean time now at 12:25pm with a temperature of 73F degrees and 7mph breeze, will drive 6 more miles to an outdoor San Jose venue where a Rock and Pop cover band plays several outdoor sets from 1pm. I'll print out there song list that is very common here in California that has large number of cover bands. Not all my preferred Classic Rock songs but I will dance to most all of it. More later..

I just had my dinner tonight maybe an hour ago... and my neighbur brought me arund Fish & Chips Romanian style....

I didn't eat the fish it was fried in something I have no idea what..I believe it was some oily fish like Mackerel... but I wouldn't have been able to eat it anyway having just had my dinner

I did eat some of the chips they were actually super light and tasty.... the dip was Garlic Mayo & Capers...

I didn't;t go out at all today because the high wind warning was still in effect the temp was in the 30's
Instead I walked the hallway a couple of times, finished reading my book which I started on Thurs
There's always tomorrow
I hope every body had a good day

I think you have been adopted.
 
A crabby, crabby day today for me! And all for small reasons. Please note that I am indeed grateful for the largest, most important things in life, such as having a roof over my head, enough food to eat, family, etc.

BUT

I need to vent, so everyone please feel free to skip over the rest of this post.

It started off great with a truly excellent AA meeting. Then I got pulled over and given a traffic ticket for speeding (46 in a 35). Grrr. I hate to make mistakes (well, an error in judgment, really) like this. Now I have to pay $30, and face an increase in my insurance rates, probably, through nobody's fault but my own. (I like it better when I can blame someone, ha ha.) The police officer was quite kind and asked if I was rushing to an appointment, but (1) I don't think well on my feet and (2) I try to always be honest, so I sheepishly just told him that no, I was simply driving too fast.

Then the winter storm blasted in, guns blazing. 'Nuff said about that.

Now, the forecast for this week has gotten worse: freezing rain all day Tuesday and most of the night, so unless that changes (and it might) I will almost certainly have to put off my visit to the grandchildren until the week of March 23.

Work has been frustrating, for too many reasons to go into here, although I am very glad to HAVE work.

I know all of these things are very trivial, and I hope I am not offending SF members who are facing much more serious problems.

I'm off to read the news and give myself a badly needed reality check and adjust my attitude. But right now I am grouchy.
 
Reality Check:
Been moaning all day how I want to go home. Very kind nurse just took me for a walk in the hallway.

Shorter than I wanted but the pain in left foot was agony.

The picture I have of my reality isn’t real.
