cool thoughts

cool thoughts

With the heat of summer pretty strong at the moment here and in many other parts of the country and the world for that matter, here we are in a drought as I showed on Saturday the ponds and river levels and very low in many places, the grass is so brown, in many parts of the world there have been raging bush fires, the worst on record, but yes tell me again there is no climate change, and I will stop there and not rant about that.

But I thought looking back and some of the shots I took in the cold of winter and thinking cool may be nice for todays post

Starting by the Duck pond in Buttonwood Park it may be hard to tell but not only is there snow on the ground but ice on the pond

Next up on East Beach, not to thick a layer of snow on the ground and plenty of footprints, I do remember them morning I took this walk, it was very chilly and my fingers were freezing at times

I do wear gloves in Winter, but I hate the feel of full gloves so I have fingerless so partially fingerless gloves ones, for two reasons, I find them more comfortable to wear, and that way I have my thumb and index ( or as I call it my clicking finger) free.
Now as someone pointed out recently in a comment back at this time I was looking forward to warmer weather and recently have bene talking about the heat here, I was thinking about that and I think in some ways I prefer the heat, as I can go out as I do for early morning walks before or as the sun rises and the temperature is quite pleasant, and since I am retired I can stay indoors and cool during the heat of the day, whereas in Winter, its cold all day long so no matter what time you go out for a walk your feeling the cold

Climate Change is real and make sense to rant on this.

Winter is my kind of favorite season tbh and wearing gloves part and feeling them I've same feelings

Tho i Agree with you POV it's cold in winters all the time so problem for extroverts unlike introvert like me stays at the house.

Already loving the cool vibes of winter from those pictures!

Have a good day ahead!

I prefer cold weather to hot weather. When the heat is excessive, it affects the quality of life very much, but the cold can be remedied somehow.

This year we are experiencing more forest fires and a drier summer.

I hear what your saying, the forest fires are terrible in some many places around the world at the moment

Now that I am retired and do not have to go out during the day unless I really want to, I dont mind the summer so much as I do my walks generally in the early morning when it is cooler

Good morning @tattoodjay !

If you doubt climate change is affecting every corner of the planet.

As always marveling us with your beautiful pictures!

When you live in such hot weather situations it's good to look at winter photos as it seems to help you feel a little cooler!

Have a great day!

Big hug

Wonderful to see the cold and snow… craving it almost with the heat here and the a/c broken. Landlord doesn’t want to fix it hehehe 🤭

Even though living in a warm country, I wish for the full 4 seasons again. I miss them. 😊
Beautiful photographs @tattoodjay
The last one is stunning… than the colourful benches 😊😎
Happy Tuesday 👋🏻☀️

Funny right? We miss the opposite than what we have @tattoodjay

He won’t fix it… been 2 weeks already 😕 31 degrees Celsius inside, he had even a second opinion from a technician. All said it needs to be replaced as 20+ years, parts are not available anymore…
But we move out end of the month as contract ends, first we were planning on staying until we have our big move as we could stay here month to month as long as it took, but with things happening and he isn’t willing to fix anything. We will move in between… it will be closer to work too (instead of 1 hour 15 drive now only 25 minutes) and the rent will be cheaper, so we do gain a lot actually, just extra hassle with another move. So I have to pack up this month again. We have a few viewings this weekend.

Sorry but your landlord sounds like a hmmm thinking of a non swear work hmmm jerk that will suffice

But saving on commute time and costs works out well

Yep… let’s go with that, but I can fill in the dots hahaha 🤣
Just cheap and doesn’t care about his tenants.

I know, too much positives to not move. And enjoy the last months we are still in Spain. We guess it still will take 6 to 9 months before all is arranged and we can go on our big adventure. Hopefully sooner…
So when we can save 400 a month that’s a lot even if it is just 6 months.
We told the landlord Monday by telling his agent. So far none reply… from both, what so ever. Just rude.
Hope we hear something today. As we need 10 extra days here, which we pay of course. As no rentals in summer season before the first of September. Our contract ends 25 august. So we need to bridge it. Hope they accept 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Good morning to you @tattoodjay 👋🏻☀️

It has been horribly dry for sure. I can't even tell you the last time I mowed my lawn! It has been kind of nice but also a little sad. We got some good soaking rain yesterday, but not nearly enough to make up for the deficit.

We got some rain the other morning but also not enough to make a difference

Seeing these snowy pictures cools us down. I also don't use gloves in winter because I feel that I can't do it. The duck pond is also very beautiful

No doubt the climate is changing, JJ.
At the moment I would love to walk in cold fresh snow and your photos have cooled me down a bit - the penultimate image is my favourite today 😊

My pleasure, JJ 😊
That's what I'm also thinking. The Winters are not like anymore they were when I was a kid and it's becoming even worse, I believe, but we'll see what the future will bring.

so hmmm maybe just wait til fall?

but i AM still staying active. and losing weight! hehehe i'm doing that keto and intermittent fasting - and its really working so amazing

i can't believe it cuz keto works for so many people - but wouldn't work past 2 weeks for me! here is the guy i listen to! hehehe why am I sharing it?? i don' tknow hahaha maybe someone is reading my comment here and needs it LOL or maybe you'll like him too!

anyway... i'm at 33.4% weight loss of my goal now hehehe i'm hoping to hit my 100% mark by Dec 31! hehehe
