    Yeah, it was really crazy today.  They also cancelled the MV Coho to Port Angeles.  Apparently that’s only happened twice since ‘97.  I was down at Esquimalt Lagoon today.  There were actually whitecaps on the lagoon side of the causeway. Sun was out for a couple minutes though so I got some gorgeous pix.



    Beautiful pics, Fifth.

    I was cycling yesterday, like always. Going in to work wasn't too bad. Coming home was.... ill-advised :lol:. I had to stop and walk for parts of my trip, where there were no buildings blocking the gusts from knocking me right off my bike.

    Yikes!  That must have been quite the journey. Glad you made it home safely.

    It was an adventure. 

    At one point I stopped at a red light. A pedestrian looked at me and said “good luck getting home”. It wasn’t a cheery “good luck!”  - more with the subtext of “I don’t like your chances” ;)

    Searching to buy a Subaru Crosstrek - as I was watching this review on you tube, I noticed Pearl Jam is on the radio in the car they are reviewing! 2:26 min into video and again 7:48. It's a sign! Of course,  my husband thinks I am nuts   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wdegTQRCZWc

    I really like my job. It's data management, and I love it. I really like my co-workers.

    I'm still learning the ropes, and I'm putting in a lot of weekend and holiday hours to finish projects. I'm making too many mistakes to feel comfortable in my job. I'm getting very down. I really like this job, and I should be good at it. I'm kind of sad.

    Give yourself more time. You'll get better. Mistakes are learning opportunities. Sometimes we are our own toughest critics. You got this. :hug:

    That was really interesting - how the economic hardships have given birth to so many grassroot bands.  Looks like a really exciting scene!

    That lead singer for Night Stalker made me chuckle and the lead singer for Planet of Zeus (i think that's right) looks INTENSE. 

    Enjoy on your birthday & forward..  :rock_on:

    My goal is to be kind to myself in the new year but to also push my comfort zone in order to heal and get back into the game of life!

    I just realized earlier that I am cigarette free for one year and 6 months today. Never thought I'd do it. Now just hoping for mental and physical wellness. For myself and for others....
