Now

πŸ€” I’m really scratching my head with a DIY project at home. I think that I am nearing a solution, but it has taken its time.

😴 Well the visit to Lowes and HomeDepot were unproductive, but the nap in the car afterwards was welcome.

πŸ”₯ Sat around the fire pit last night with the grandkids, roasting marshmallows, while their parents partied at a wedding next door. A game of night time tag. Shower, movie and then bed. The evening went well.

πŸ”Š Sitting in the dark, baby sitting the grandkids, while music from the party that their parents are at, booms loudly from across the road.

🌞 I said it yesterday, but the warm sun feels so good. I think that it is the contrast after weeks of wind and rain.

β˜€οΈ The warmth of the sun feels just so good today.

🌊 Returning home last night it was still and dark, and yet I could hear the waves crashing against the cliffs over a mile away.

🌞 The first morning waking up to sun for a long time. Much gratitude.

♨️ We just put a heater on. It's cold this evening, in our corner of Maui.

β˜” I haven’t seen so much rain here. Since I landed back on island a week ago, there has been rain with short breaks, and a lot of wind. I just drove home with wipers doing double speed, and rivers forming alongside the road.

🌧️ It’s pouring out there. β€œOut there,” is outside of my truck. I have come to off load the recycling, but it is raining so much that for now I am not venturing out.

πŸ§ͺ Doing a little testing of omg.lol's status updates.

🚧 The spam bots appear to be on overdrive for the last couple of days. The amount of junk e-mail dropping in has significantly increased.

πŸ’†β€β™‚οΈ I’ve just had a massage to ease two days of travel out of me. I’m still less than 24 hours home and feel as though I have a leg in two continents.

πŸ›¬ Getting there. I’ve not long landed in Honolulu. Waiting for my final flight, to Maui. What time is it?!

πŸ›Έ Up, up and away.

πŸ˜Άβ€πŸŒ«οΈ The morning cloud and mist is burning off. It feels as though it will be a warm afternoon.

πŸ₯± It’s tomorrow. I’d better go to bed.

🐰 Where do dust bunnies come from? My current thinking is from β€œthin air,” and that they are very prolific!

πŸ—’οΈ Making lists for things I have to do in the next 24 hours before leaving.

🫠 Another ssslllooowww start to the day. Not often for me, but sometimes they just feel right…and nourishing.

🍺 Sitting outside on a mild February evening in AlcÑcer, enjoying listening to the sounds of the local crowd and relaxing after a busy week.

😌 I’m having a sssllllooooowwww morning. Things to do, but I’m trying to recognize that one of them, hiding in the corner, is β€œtake a rest.”

πŸ” I needed that lunch. The jitters were setting in.

β˜€οΈ Blessings for the sun this morning. It might not be the warmest sun, but it is the sun in a blue sky.

πŸš— I landed in Portugal last night. This morning I am heading out on roads that I know, from a previous visit, but don’t know. Always brings up anxiety in me. …Breathe…

πŸ₯Ά There’s a frost outside this morning. Roof tops are white, grass is white and crispy. I haven’t seen this in a few years.

πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’« Just woke up, mid morning, after not sleeping most of the night. Jet lag is no fun.

β›ˆοΈ Lightning lighting up the sky tonight.

πŸ₯š Watching eggs boil.
