Shalimar, FL (Hi 74 Lo 45) This post is 3030.
This is the first day of March and my anniversary of moving to Bob Hope Village is tomorrow. I feel like I've been here for years, but it's only two. It's been a learning curve, fun, exciting at times and even frustrating. The biggest thing is learning patience (kinda still bad at that). I've learned to put up boundaries and saying no when I feel I should. I know I'll be here for many years more so it's a good thing to be flexible.
More zooms this week then anything else, but it's always really busy at the end of the month. I have several different type of zooms and it's been fun this week. I'm also a moderator with tiktok and loving it. People can be rude and some very funny. I also have many zooms with friends I've made since Jim's death with widows. We are a group that help each other.
The week of activities were quite a bit this week. I actually got a haircut this week here on campus. I tried calling the one downtown but she didn't answer and never called back. So that person is out and gone from my calling list. The lady here did a good job, I guess I'll just stick with her.
I went with one of the activities gals on the walk thru the woods and trying to come up with a plan to clean up the paths a bit. It looked like someone was trying to make a smoother path, it wasn't nearly as bad as last time I went thru it. (Click on photos to enlarge)
Turtle on the path. I almost stepped on him. A lot of the trees have died, trying to see if an university or school would like to take on the project of helping out to see what can be done to help the woods. This one has a woodpecker on it.
Thursday I had crochet at 12 then to massage/chiropractor by 3 and a zoom class at 5:30. I actually got dinner at 4:30 so that was good.
I watch a youtube 24/7 critter cam. This couple moved to a big property near woods so they could feed all animals for 24 hrs and rigged a cam to watch it all. I'm amazed how many animals eat together.
Here's the link. There's usually 5 raccoons and mice and some other creature I have no idea show up sometimes.
Another link is the california eagles. This is the third time I've watched these two raising their babies, this time there's 3 eggs. They should be hatching by the middle or late March, (I think).
Here's the link. These eagles sit on the nest with tons of snow on them. Amazing to watch when the weather is bad.
Besides those two cams. I watch earthquakes around the world. That's another love of mine. I've followed quakes for many years, they're getting more frequent and more powerful. It's all linked together,
I have 2 more football gnomes to make. This is the Miami Dolphins. I even have a dolphin on the side.
I spent almost the entire day on summer plans on Friday. I have the flights to Illinois, in May and the rental car with help of grandson. The cruise and everything lined up for getting there (by car) for April. I've got the boots and getting some other little things to stay warm for Alaska in September. It's going to be a busy summer. At least the planning has all started.
Saturday morning, up and ready at 7:00am. Whew, that's early, but I wanted to be first in line to get my car washed by the Eglin AFB guys and gals. We have pollen on the cars and it's making my car look yellow/green. It's a way for them to make money and it's a help for our community with part of the money the collect. They do a really good job.
