By Odins beard! Good day!
I wish you all a very pleasant cup of #coffee.
Top of the Tuesday to you!
Make the best of it, but if you screw it up, when you wake up tomorrow, you can give it another shot.

Holy moly! I just looked at my notifications for followers - so many! I don't get auto-notified and haven't checked recently.
Well, I'll try to find time to go thru them all. Warning - I don't' treat it like an obligation here. I look to follow folks that provide conversation or content, not simply likes (nice) or follows (also nice) so my friends column is homey and comfortable. I often hide the hose, but browse it to find new interesting folks.
Don't take offense if I don't add you. 🤟
I'm pretty sure it's tied to #J6 but I've just felt "off" all morning. An anxiety that I just don't usually ever get. That all of this - 10 sessions of this and the recommendations - are going to result in absolutely squat. I do hope there is a Rick Smith announcement immediately after this today but not holding my breath either.
I yield back my time.

Fire and Water in Puerto Rico.
Lots of FEMA money allocated since Maria 5 years ago - but little has been used, and Fiona showed how fragile the electrical grid is. Completely unreliable. Little has been done to decentralize and provide a robust system via renewable solar.
Water pumping stations have little backup power, even though $$ is there to purchase/rent generators, and diesel in short supply.
No fire, no water.

60° today, 49 and snow tomorrow. Wanted to sail or ride. Co-captain didn't get out of bed til 10:30 hungover, and motorcycle battery is dead, had to buy new after a couple wasted hours attempting to charge it. Now into my 4th pint of hazy and many sads. 🙁 But - Good convo with barmate on the other side of the political spectrum. I value and work to make those convos happen.
Good morning lovely people! Sunny, clear and supposed to approach 60° today. I think a motorcycle ride may be in order after breakfast, or maybe to go get breakfast, but after #coffee...hmm, I need a good diner a short ride away with a long road behind it.
