In reality it is not about more time off, rather LESS! |
Most commonly observed when the individual sentences uttered by a person are complete, but coupled together with adjacent sentences the overall meaning is disjointed, contradictory or makes no logical sense at all. Often friendly, however, some are egomaniac in a small-town way, ie 'explanations & thoughts don't add up.' In short, as my friend Gwen said 'People just don't think things through!'
UK house guests mean we get to do a bit more touristy fun things. This included a trip to the Florida Aquarium in Tampa with these amazing sea dragons and nesting Roseate Spoonbills.

For us humans, winter means we have the opportunity to get a flu shot at the drive-through, so we can 'remain in our car'!! Yes, really.

has documented Florida wilderness in film and breathtaking photos.
Sadly the corridor doesn't come near us in Tampa!
Just for comparison Florida is 2/3 the size of Britain with 20 million people vs Britain's 60 million. We could almost be a country!
My favorite friends are back out front in great numbers, diving for fish near shore, soaring through the air and generally hanging out. When beach brain sets it, I occasionally call them penguins - who knows what synapse get mucked up.
Brown Pelicans, not penguins! |
The stores are full of Halloween, Thanksgiving and yes Christmas decorations and trinkets competing for space. Mini me is off to do some machine quilting!
It brings a smile to mini me's face that in sub-tropical Florida, we decorate with colorful fall leaves + snow and advertise cold medicine on TV with blizzards that don't occur here in Tampa. Irony, however, is not a national pastime and hence the incongruity is lost on many locals.
Hubby and I were # 2 in the 'drive thru' flu shot lane this afternoon. Must say very efficient and the ladies doing the 'jabbing' were friendly with a great sense of humour -- Hubby's 'injector' called it a 'drive by shooting.' Never got out of the car; all in all arrived at 10 past the hour and had driven away before 25 past. What an experience! And it was free - a real medical novelty in the USA!!!
