Hurricane Ian. September 29
Power still out! Internet via cell 4G network super slow. Looks like power mostly restored on the Tampa side. May jump over to a Starbucks later; I need to be on a call this afternoon. Going out for a walk.
Hurricane Ian. September 28
1. Doing fine so far this morning! The storm turned a bit south last night. Pretty quiet, actually. Power & water still good. 2. Hurricane Ian/Tampa update. We’re finally seeing some wind and heavier rain. I went out walking earlier and the Hillsborough River water level was pretty low. 3. Power out! Going offline to
Hurrican Ian. September 27
Checking in. It just started raining. Sounds like tonight’s gonna be noisy but not horrible (40 mph winds, heavy rain, but landfall to the south). Some guy’s outside, bragging it up how bad it is, when the parking lot’s full of cars of people who didn’t evacuate. So tough there, buddy.

Yesterday was a lot of running around, errands, phone calls, and other assorted hugger-mugger, in preparation for the hurricane. Today has been pretty good so far, but who knows how it will go. Ray and I are staying in place; we are out of range/elevation for the storm surge. I anticipate the power and water
Hurricane Ian. September 26
Right! Ray and I are in Tampa, which means we’re in the path for Hurricane Ian. We were in St. Pete next to the bay, but now we are further away from the water, around Busch and 50th. We are near the top of the one hill in Tampa and are not actually in an

Disrupting my routines this morning coz I’m agitated. The guy with the problem with AI and pumpkin spice lattes that I’ve been bitching about over the last few days on locked posts has been blocked. He just kept…trying to erase what he’d done, pulling a complete 180 via messages, brown-nosing, trying to overflow my buffers

Yoga this morning: I was feeling stuffed up in my own body, like I had a sinus infection of the self. Blah. Didn’t want to get up, whine whine. Got up, swept the patio, laid down the mat, grumbled through the first few poses. Once I hit the Warriors it got better and my energy

This morning was rough–I was feeling very disconnected–but good news: I can get my ADD meds tomorrow. I was trying to tell myself that I was doing relatively fine, but yesterday I was running on empty and it took a while for the rationed dose to kick in this morning again. My regrets as a
