Good morning. Just a Random Saturday Post which includes 'stuff' from the internet.

| Unfortunately, due to the intense thunderstorms we have been having, I have been unable to wear flip flops, sigh. |
Time/Weather...9 am and its 77* with a 70% chance of rain/thunderstorms today-after 1 pm and the real feel is 92*. Florida is in its rainy season. Hey, there is a little storm out in the Caribbean, hmm...will keep an eye on that.
Watching...nothing in particular. I did watch Lottery Dream Home, and one of my YouTube shows.
Trying to...although the temps are still hot and humid, I am trying to get the fall feeling going, which includes the blog. I just can't get my head wrapped around the idea that this is the last weekend in August. sigh.
Doing...absolutely nothing today--gas in my truck can wait until tomorrow. I wanted to try to get in the pool this morning. Hubby wants Nachos yet again for dinner. So, that is the plan, nothing...and that is ok.
**up the road, at the Florida Horse park, there is a big Rock the Country concert going on, so traffic is a big issue out here in God's country aka SW Marion County.
Random Stuff from the internet:
You get a spur-of-the-moment invitation to a meal with your best friend. Could you go wearing what you have on right now? Since its only 9 am, I am wearing swim shorts and my swim tank, so no--although if you go to Silver Springs or the short drive to Crystal River, folks wear their bathing suits out and about. You do see a lot of that even in town, folks who stop at Walmart etc. to get their supplies for kayaking/ day in the springs or the Gulf of America etc. I will say, here in our county, most folks do wear shorts and t shirts. It's just a combination of the heat and humidity that causes us to just be casual. If someone asked us to meet up, probably would be capris and a nice blouse, but again, shorts and t shirts are the norm around here. Sorry, folks, it's just to miserable hot.
***and since I do have to dress up during the week, I prefer casual.
Gertrude Temple, Shirley's mother, was her daughter's on-set hairstylist, creating the famous "curly top" with pin curls. What's your hair care regimen? Wash, condition, leave in conditioner, mousse, curling iron, hairspray. Yeah, I'm high maintenance. The humidity plays a big part on how the hair day goes.
Share 4 Somethings from August:
I love...the afternoon/evening showers we have been getting. Although, they are pretty intense, but nonetheless, yay! We're getting rain, still in a drought, but yay!
I am making space for...well, not yet...because I am just too lazy, but I did start cleaning up my desk-and shredding stuff-- area to get moved over someplace else. Something is stopping me...yet again, the Education Dept. continues to grow and change sometimes at a snail pace and sometimes at a pace one cannot comprehend (think spinning head).
I am carrying forward...I am really trying to carry a better attitude...truly I am. Hence why I am taking time off next week to better myself --I mean the attitude. 😄
Just one photo from the week...
Afternoon storms rolling in. I beat one storm that rolled in on my way home the other day. A typical Florida sky in August.


Well, I hope your leave isn't canceled, Linda. I always enjoy reading your thoughts on the various topics you share. Enjoy your Saturday!
ReplyDeleteHave a nice weekend, Nachos sound good! And hooray for some time off next week~
ReplyDeleteHave a good Sunday and short week ahead. I hope you get your long-weekend vacation, and make it to the beach!! Renewing the soul is so important!! Keep us posted, Linda! Peace!! xo
ReplyDeleteOh, I DO hope you get your full long weekend next weekend. You need it and even though we need the rain, we don't need anything too crazy going on out there. I do love the afternoon showers, but they skipped over us the past two days, and I am not too happy about that. I am thankful that we are moving into September, which makes us think it's going to be cooler even though we know it really isn't, but we start making ourselves believe it is anyway. LOL. Our brains start trying to trick us into thinking FALL. Sounds good to me anyway. LOL. Have a good week. Hooray for the long weekend.
