📱Well I finally decided to reinstall a cover on my phone. I'd like it to last another year or so, at least, and don't know if I can trust myself not to drop it.
Now
🍃 I feel as though we have been in a wind tunnel all day, maybe the last two days?! I hope that we wake up to a calmer day tomorrow.
🏃♀️ I don’t think that my run today will be much fun, though it will be a challenge. Winds are currently gusting 20/25mph, with a forecast for stronger winds.
🤫 All is quiet right now, and I’m loving it. It won’t stay this way, but for now I am making the most of it. The quiet rests my body and mind.
🏃♂️ Heading out for the second run of my personal Watch to 5K challenge.
🐳 I saw my first whale of the season this evening. Way out to sea, a few water spouts and the cresting back of the whale.
😩 A frustrating day. I fix one thing (or update it), and something else breaks. I’m calling tech support tomorrow morning.
Despite the sound of it, this was not computer related, rather the front gate.
🤦 How to not make a cup of coffee…omit the ground coffee. Happy New Year!
💡 Well no sooner do I write, than the power comes back on. And the rain continues to fall. It is wet out there.
🔌 Power outage. We haven’t had one for a while. The lights flickered while I was cooking dinner, but hung in there. Later we were watching one of the streaming services and all suddenly goes dark. Inclement weather can bring on a power outage and it has been wet since mid-afternoon.

🌧️ Well it is wet out there.
🤦🏼♂️ Waiting for some toast to pop up, and then realized that I had not put it in the toaster!
😶🌫️ A misty, rainy Sunday morning. Those are the best..at least it feels like that this morning.
🤒 I have been unwell the last couple of days, though I really don't know what I have had? The main symptoms? Tired and achy, a slight and brief fever. I think that I am on the mend now. If you are waiting on reply from me, I hope to be back in touch tomorrow.
👋 …and suddenly it is all over. The build up, the preparation, the day, the eating, the cleanup, and all that is left are memories and feeling of a meal well eaten.
Of course there is time spent with family and friends - appreciated and not taken for granted. For now though, Thanksgiving is wrapped up until next year.
🍂 The house has been vacuumed, the table laid, food prep is under way, family strife laid to rest - Happy Thanksgiving.
☔️ I'm grateful for the rain falling this morning, and wish that it would bless the rest of this island with its presence.
🌧️ We are waking up to rain this morning, a lot of it. I hope that the rest of the island is getting this as it needs it. We live in the wetter part of Maui, and sometimes I can drive fifteen, twenty minutes from here and I go from rain to sun and blue skies.
😩 Jet lag sucks. Needing to sleep. Trying to stay up so that I don't wake up in the middle of the night...which I inevitably do anyway. Trying to function, get things done, but not really. Finally surrendering and just going to sleep, to wake up whenever the body feels it's ready to....only to feel wiped out again in the middle of the day!
💦 I'd forgotten how humid Maui can be.
🌧️ Today has been off and on wet, but it is really coming down now. I hope that we don't sail away.
🚘 Heading to Lisbon today.
⛈️ Woah! Now it is coming down. We got home just in the nick of time. A meeting canceled, but I prefer to be back home than out on the road in this. Be safe anyone who is out and about.
🥱 8:30am and I am just getting up. I never do that, this late in the morning, until I have just done so. I was tired...still feel that way. A slow Sunday ahead?
😮💨 Feeling tired at the far end of a day moving around Lisbon. But getting things done, enjoying ourselves, and meeting with friends
🥵 very hot today. Peaking at 35C (95F). We are on the search for cooler temperatures.
