The sun is trying to come out today. I understand it will succeed the rest of the week, with just an occasional thunder storm here and there. I can handle that.
A flock of flirting flamingos is pure, passionate, pink pandemonium-a frenetic flamingle-mangle-a discordant discotheque of delirious dancing, flamboyant feathers, and flamingo lingo.
Last night was bittersweet. He is leaving this morning (hopefully). I only cried for a minute.
So, a couple of weeks ago, the left wheel fell of the boat trailer. Did some serious damage to the trailer, but not the boat. We had just turned onto the main road, so we weren't going fast.
So G bought a new trailer and had someone lift the boat from the old one to the new one. Well, the new one is too long. It can't be used. So now we have to pay someone to fix the old one. Hopefully, he has the parts and can do it this morning.
This has just been a clusterfvck.

It has been an overwhelming and frustrating morning. BUT instead of eating the bag of chips I have in my desk for emergencies, I just took a long walk at lunch. I popped in my ear buds and let the sunshine clear my head. I'm still overwhelmed, but ready to tackle the afternoon
Little Scully will be happy. You've done good, FWM.
O4, I hope that can be fixed. Ya'll may just have to get a bigger boat.

I treated myself to a shopping trip this morning. The best birthday present was the pants I bought are 2 sizes smaller than what I was wearing! That made me feel really good so I decided to brave swimsuit shopping, and I found a cute one! Then I went to Sephora and updated my makeup.

Dress lily has some of the cutest swimsuits. But I wonder if they are worth it.

So I have lived in our house for 27 years, and the once-nice suburban neighborhood has definitely declined. The place is designed with a few winding through streets & lots of cul-de-sacs that open off the main streets.
I turned into our subdivision at 2:30, only to find 5 police cars blocking the road. I turned off my car, got out & one of the guys came to talk to me. I thought they had blocked the entrance to our court.
I told him where I lived & asked if I could get to my house. He said that if I went the long way around, I could.
Why were the police there? They were investigating a drive-by shooting & photographing the casings. Luckily, no one was hit.
Da fuq? Just drive your car in the middle of the afternoon & shoot a gun? I have no idea if I'll find out anything more.

It didn't used to be. And I still feel safe...most of the time.

My previous neighborhood was very nice when I moved in back in 1993. It has gone down hill a little now but not too bad. Somewhere around 2004 or so some guy held his wife & kids hostage & was shooting at the police. They closed the main road into the subdivision. It was really scary but isolated. Hopefully this will be isolated for you.
Even in the nicest of nice areas murder still happens. Not as much for sure but it can and does.

So, from what we can tell, there were 7 - 10 shots fired. Apparently the vehicles were traveling in opposite directions & gunfire was exchanged as they passed each other.
My husband is going back to work. Well, for at least six months anyway.
