A new month

Following a really exasperating and brutally busy day yesterday, I got back– got a butt load of pictures uploaded and posted and felt like a night out to eat was in order. My Queen was agreeable to it, grabbed her a quick shower and we were out the door. We have a small gift certificate for the place we decided to go to and since we haven’t been there in a bit-  figured it would be a good time to remedy that.  We sat and watched a gorgeous sunset, had an agreeable meal, 2 or 8 drinks (yes, I broke down and was hitting them fairly steady after the day I had) and had a scrumptious dessert. By the time we got back, my belly was full, and I pretty much just locked the house up and crashed. I knew I had to get up early this morning and sleep was sounding really good right about then. I guess it was a good thing I went to bed a little early, as my belly gave me an ugly reminder about 04:00 this morning on what happens when I drink a lot….. UGggh…… I finally got up a little after 5:00 and just stayed up and dealt with that……… Dammit Emmit~! Got everything ready for work….. went in and got Angie up as today is a workday for her…. apparently she had a long tough day today, as she is not back here yet. She did ping me and said she was on her way….. So I’ll have a drink waiting for her and I’ll stick to my flavored water…..woo-hoo~~~ I wasn’t really in the mood to eat anything…. but made myself nuke up a sausage, egg & cheese biscuit. Not as good for me as my usual, healthier breakfast but at least it was something. Got to the dock, boarded our boat and got my gear ready. Fairly full boat again today, but everyone on board was certified divers and shouldn’t require a whole lot of attention…… Heading out, a young lady on the boat asked me a question about her rig. Turns out she is making her first ‘non-training’ dive today….. which means this is dive 6 or 7 for her. Working with her to get her rig assembled correctly, the Dive Master starts yelling frantically from the front of the boat. I am a little bit annoyed by this as I was doing his job and not mine (photographer) I finished up what I was doing and hustled up to the front of the boat [camera in hand]. Dolphins………. LOTS of Dolphins~! That is a rare treat for us here on this island. We drove around with them riding our bow wave for several minutes. Long enough for lots of pictures and some video. The ensuing dives were fabulous…. Visibility was still awesome and lots of friendly underwater critters. Most of the divers were receptive about getting their picture taken….. just 2 really good dives~! Going back out to the North shore tomorrow (back to my 1 hour round trip driving).

Vera— I sure hope you’re getting healed up and feeling better~!

Good Night Ya’ll > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Thankx for stopping in~!

Born in Germany as an Army brat - I moved permanently to the United States about the time I was ready to start school - Dad put to me to work when I turned 13 tearing off roofs and packing shingles.. I did that, DE tasseled corn and bucked hay all the way through high school. After graduation, moved down South for a year or so trying to figure what I wanted to do. Finally came home and joined the Air Force serving almost 5 years - which included a 3 year tour in Germany, where I met my Queen. Came home and started working as a roofer. Economy went to crap and I knew I would not be able to support my growing family the way I wanted to, so I pestered the HR department at General Electric until they hired me. A very quick almost 34 years, 4 Daughters and 9 Grandkids later - here I am .... waiting as patiently as I can, to start the next chapter of our life - romping around in the Caribbean Sea checking out the various islands that we have not been to yet. Holy $hit what a ride~!!!! ;-)
