Pearl Harbor Day
Dec. 8th, 2009 12:45 am Pearl Harbor Day- I did my stretches, lifted weights, rode my bike and then it started to rain! The rain was coming down quite steadily all day until about 6pm when the wind started to blow real hard all night!
Today’s Weather was: Temps of around 34 and 53 degrees, NW-W winds of 25 to 44 with gusts over 50 MPH, humidity around 60 percent, low stratus clouds blanketing the sky with lots of rain.
According to the National Weather Service: “Tuesday: Mostly sunny, with a high near 45. West wind between 14 and 17 mph becoming light. Winds could gust as high as 24 mph. Tuesday Night: Partly cloudy, with a low around 32. West wind between 3 and 8 mph.”
I stayed inside because of the rain and started to get everything ready to do my Christmas cards. I lost my address book because of my house is in such a mess after putting in the new tile and had to do a search for the dang thing. I finally found a backup I did on the computer and put it altogether but then I discovered that Windows 7 doesn’t have a mail or address program! Who would of thunk! So I put it on another netbook that is running XP and all is good. I downloaded the Mozilla Thunderbird mail program for the Win 7 netbook. I tested Thunderbird out and it wanted to download all 967Megs of emails I have archived on my Gmail account; that will never do, so I set it to work offline until I can figure out a way to just download my inbox. All I was able to do on the cards so far was get the return address on the envelopes.
Because of the wind and rain I didn’t go for my evening walk. I watched “My Name is Earl” but towards the end the channel went out because of the high winds, damn!
I wrote my column for the newspaper and sent out the newsletter early because I wanted to let Lee Hines friends know that there will be a memorial potluck this Saturday at 1pm over at the community center.
I watched “Castle” on ABC but the dang reception kept cutting out but I was able to get the drift of what was going on.
Dang, I’m sitting here writing this at 1am and the house feels like it’s going to blow away! I hear lots of strange banging noises as the wind rips across my home.
I did my stretches; practiced my guitar; wrote to my journal, posted it to the web, and called it a night.
