BREAKING NEWS

Depression becomes Tropical Storm Berry

Forecasters say a tropical depression crossing Mexico's Bay of Campeche has gotten better organized…
Received by email 2:57 P.M. on today Wednesday June 19. 2013.

I so enjoy receiving breaking news from the Tampa ABC affiliate, where our closest, biggest city is and has a fine group of news anchors and meteorologists who usually move on to major news groups once leaving this south eastern largest market area next to Miami I believe, but I could be wrong, I’ve been wrong before…
Any-who, in most cases their mistakes are minimal, which is why I do enjoy receiving breaking news blurbs/items from them. Although, not that it really matters that much but the second northeastern Atlantic tropical storm of the hurricane system after Andrea that just passed is actually called Barry, although Berry is cute, Barry is its name.

Boy does that make me feel good!

These are well educated folks, way beyond my ken and they can still goof!
My very occasional ignorance has been exonerated, hip, hip, hooray!
Oh, alright, mine is more frequent, but they have more people to edit, me none, they have fail-safe systems that oops too… This is so wrong and really sad that I find such delight in their minute inaccuracy at least they have its direction correct, that would be more awful and we here in southwest Florida know how horrible that can be! And the direction accuracy of any storm is the most important part of forecasting! Although, to be fair, no one has that much control of storms decisions… and we all know there is no one to blame when they take a quick right, but even so many years later we sure wish some one could figure it out!
Interesting enough that Berry, I mean Barry will probably be turning back into a tropical depression again, thankfully as it goes across land and then its name status is removed anyway! Just called a ‘tropical depression’, but then we move on to the next ‘C’, Chantal, named storm and this will be just another blip in that time space continuum that I captured for your viewing.
Sounds cool, hmm?
Me reaching into the sky for that?

Moving on…
The powers that be, The American Medical Association have determined that ‘Obesity’ is a disease!
Just what I needed was another one of those, diseases!
Kidding, sadly, I knew that; it kills more people today than smoking with one out of three people being obese in the USA!
Then why did I quit smoking on July 11 2006!
And yes, my 7th anniversary for that is coming up next month and sure I am proud… and will not start again, until I turn eighty, since neither of my parents lived to that age and I will feel safe.
Although, by then, they will be either fifty dollars a pack or only sold on the Black Market, who knows who cares why that is more than a decade away!

By then I will be slim again, since I am still going to the gym/ rehab and have now incorporated another piece of equipment into my routine that I did ten reps each, in two directions, today! It is that thing you pull down with your hands, no weights yet, just the system itself, but I did it! Now I do 15 minutes on the arm cycle both directions, and 100 reps, fifty break fifty, on the total gym and now this too, yeah!
Two days so far this week and Friday is coming up and as long as I have no problems in the interim I will be there!

Now for the curious and interpreters of film or PICS in this case I think that the picture looks as if a giant snake is over by our birdbath, you tell me what you think? Hubby doesn’t think so, but I am the one with imagination… ha!




On that note of WHAT???? Allow me to be the very first to wish all of you a very happy good night and ask you to kindly count all your blessings and share all those overages with you know who and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear!
