...At Surfside, Champlain Condo Towers as of this writing.
The first time that less were unaccounted for than found.
Sad progress, as of yesterday

Moving on...
The X-so-called president is trying hard to be noticed at different venues, but fortunately, his appearances have had quite mixed reviews!
So his base/minions are having second thoughts?
How marvelous!
Perhaps, the possibility of any indictments for wrongdoing in a few states realistically has questioned their support?
Moving on to an important topic, close to me...
Today in 2006, I quit smoking, so fifteen years ago, after yes, believe it not forty-four years of smoking! You heard right, I was twelve, but didn't learn to inhale until I was sixteen, by a person who first teased me and then taught me to do that disgusting habit the right way! I do not remember who that was to this day! Fast forward to 2006, I quit when a neurologist told me I had had a TIA, Trans Ischemic Attack, a mini-stroke! He instantly prescribed 81 milligrams of aspirin nightly and suggested strongly that I quit smoking, and since both my parents had died from having strokes, and so I did! The doctor who prescribed the inhalent medication that helped me stop smoking all those years ago... was smart, I just forgot its name, Nicotrol inhaler I think, but within two weeks I was never a smoker again! I just Googled it and there are so many now there is NO EXCUSE to not quit! "Nike it", JUST DO IT!!! Mine, I do recall it was not covered by insurance and was very expensive; $300 comes to mind. Now they are much less expensive! I had tried seven times previously from the patch to cold turkey..., some times as long as six months... but that last stuff worked great!
Moving on once again...
Our morning's sunrise.
Cloudy.
And so we must go, for now ...
I am called Aussie because my Mom asked a sixteen-year-old girl, who had been looking at me, in the crate at the adoption site, that day, what she thought I should be named. And without hesitation, the teenager had said, Aussie! She was just looking, by the way,... so Mom did not steal me from her.
We never did find out the girl's name, and Mom liked the name Aussie too. We have since found out that it is a very common name, but it is still just right for me! My parents think that I am uncommon though,... some might say even unique! I do like that.
I am an Australian Shepherd. Here is an interesting factoid about me, I was supposed to be a miniature Australian Shepherd, but... as you might know, I AM NOT! Although I am now three years old, so I am the baby, though I tip the scales at around seventy pounds, HA! I must admit, a very big one!
I was three months old when Mommy and Daddy adopted me. I had been taken out of a hoarder's home in the Carolinas with my litter. Below is my new PIC that had been taken on the birthday that I share with my Dad, but Dad is much, much older than me!!! I was the first to be adopted, February 16, 2018, his brother's birthday.
Please don't forget me, I am Chance, pictured above, a Bichon Frise! I am six years old, so they think, and the eldest, and I like getting up early with Mom and Aussie. Bella sleeps in with Dad, till after seven most days, even later! I enjoy a good tug-a-war on the ropes that Dad had twisted for Aussie and me, and sometimes even Bella plays too! I was the last to be adopted, on January 23, 2020.
I was wandering the neighborhood for days and then saw Aussie and Bella in their living-room window, so I hung out there... The Animal Welfare League checked me out and kept me for sixteen days until I was allowed to be adopted. Good evening?
The animal control lady was called and came out to see if I had a chip I.D. with her machine, and Dad told her that he wanted to name me Chance. His reason being, that if no one claimed me, I want to give him a second chance! So that is how I got the name Chance!
Easy as Aussie, Bella, Chance, now you got it!
