Outside My Window ~ 9.2.2012
Outside my window…is another rainy Sunday evening. Rain…more rain. It appears as if Isaac remnants have finally moved far enough east to impact our area. I saw a fairly confusing forecast earlier this week that said part of the remnants would split from the main storm and move east {what we are experiencing now} and the rest would follow {expected tomorrow}. Our forecast is for scattered storms for the week. I’m not sure how much I believe them….last Sunday it said we would be in the mid 80’s this past week…they were wrong, it was more like the very high 80’s and low 90’s with a heavy dollop of humidity on top of that. I can understand how, the ground is still saturated from our flooding storms last Saturday and continued rain for the early part of the week….it has been like a huge steam bath outside. For those of you unfamiliar with heat and humidity ~ imagine a very hot day and as soon as you step outside the door, someone tosses a heavy, wet towel on you….yes, it is as lovely as it sounds.
I am thinking…how much I love three day weekends! 🙂 I’m also thinking about how I kept thinking it was Saturday all day today ~ guess because I knew I didn’t have to go to work tomorrow.
I am glad…that I switched Internet providers and decided to bundle when I did. I switched to FIOS and have digital television now ~ yes, I know welcome to the 21st century Debbie! 🙂 I resisted for a long time because I thought the price was a bit ridiculous…but I got a good deal and couldn’t be happier. My Internet is lightening compared to the DSL I had before and I’m excited with all the different television channels I can get now….especially the two horror channels I now get!
I am going…to continue these daily walks with the dog because I love the exercise I have been getting. This little dog could probably walk all day but we are only going about a mile and a half each day….more on the weekends because we go both in the morning and the evening. I actually look forward to them and will be building up the distance as time goes by.
From my kitchen…was a new recipe for chicken and cheese enchiladas. Not bad but before I share I want to make a few changes and see if that improves it. I decided this morning I was going to make myself a nice breakfast tomorrow morning….eggs, grits, bacon and maybe even some biscuits. Once upon a time a big breakfast was something we did on a holiday morning….except the girls generally requested waffles or pancakes. So while I’m going to be by myself, after I walk the dog I’m going to make a nice breakfast.
I am hearing…the ticking of my many clocks….Sex and the City on television….no rain at the moment.
Recap of last week…was just one post this past week and that was a shot of the blue moon last month. If you check out the post, make sure you click on the link to hear the best version of the song. 🙂
Plans for the week include…enjoying my day off tomorrow….working from home on Tuesday….catching up on my web workshops….posting the new free desktop calendar for September ~ I need to get a little better about getting these things out on the first of the month rather than a few days in.
One of life’s little pleasures…days off with pay from work…relaxing time. 🙂
From my camera…a couple of images I took of frogs on my very damp storm door the first of the week…guess it was even too wet for them outside.
