HEY! There's A Cat In My A/C!

Can't think of a better way to end the beautiful winter day in central/south Florida with a fluffy and soft sunset. We had a couple of cloudy and rainy days (we needed them desperately) and a sunset like this only means tomorrow will be clear and sunny. This is why we love to live in Florida

  What's this Jada sleeping in her new favorite spot? It sure is, can't think of a better way to "recycle" an old air handler than sleep in it. When I was a young and wild young man I do recall drinking a little to much on a Sunday and instead of driving drunk I stayed at work and slept on a bed of insulation. I still itch when I think of that. I'd like to type good times, but it wasn't really.

A couple of the neighborhood kids call me The Sunset Guy and get a chuckle out of it. One day they will see. It's all good.

While you were gone these faces filled with darkness.
The obvious was hidden, with nothing to believe in.
Sullen wings of fortune beat like rain.
You're back in terrapin for good or ill again, for good or ill again.



Winter has been mild, and we are warm for February, the heat is creeping our way, don't be scared when it hits us hard, and the sweat rolls off our brows, it only takes a quick little ring , to call the man of your dreams, he will race over swiftly to help your needs in fast and honest way, when he leaves it's cool, and it's back like it's never been before.

A Traffic Jam I Like

If you see something that looks like a star
and it's shooting up out of the ground
and your head is spinning from a loud guitar.
And you just can't escape from the sound
don't worry too much, It'll happen to you.
We were children once, playing with toys.

And the thing that you're hearing is only the sound
of the low sparks of high-heeled boys.

The percentage you're paying is too high priced
while you're living beyond all your means.
And the man in the suit has just bought a new car
from the profit he's made on your dreams.
But today you just swear that the man was shot dead
by a gun that didn't make any noise.
But it wasn't the bullet that laid him to rest
was the low spark of high-heeled boys.

If you had just a minute to breath,
and they granted you one final wish
would you ask for something, like another chance.
Or something similar as this
don't worry too much, It'll happen to you
as sure as your sorrows are joys.

And the thing that disturbs you is only the sound
of the low spark of high-heeled boys.

If I gave you everything that I own
and asked for nothing in return.
Would you do the same for me, as I would for you?
Or take me for a ride
and strip me of everything, including my pride.
But spirit is something that no one destroys.

And the sound that I'm hearing is only the sound
of the low spark of high-heeled boys.

Winter in Florida

Step 1

Find a good day to fish the beach.
Clean water, some current, not too hot, and a little spare time.

Step 2                                                                                                             

Catch and clean a couple of sweet Pompano.

Step 3

BBQ and enjoy!

The weather has been perfect and no one is using much a/c or heat. The pompano have been biting on a regular schedule. I wonder If I can pay some bills with a fish swap.

If you need an a/c replaced or new ductwork done, this IS THE TIME for your best savings of the year.

Just call, if I don't answer, leave a message and I will call you back during the next tide.

Love ya,

Tim

Adios 2011

Spent the day at the beach with my son catching pompano and enjoying the last of 2011.
Good luck and God bless to all for 2012.
It sure can't be any worse than 2011, it was a tough one kids.

Grillin' and chillin'

Charlotte

Ted my youngest (14) is on a traveling lacrosse team. He LOVES it. First off he is a huge kid, he is over 6 feet and around 225 pounds. When he played football he always had to play with kids his own size and they were usually 2 to 4 years older. Physically they matched up but mentally at that age their is a big difference, don't get me wrong he played very well and kept pace were needed. We never feared for his safety or any other issues, it was what it was and we all had a good time.
Lacrosse is different, there is no size or weight limits, it's all about the age. He towers over a lot of players and lacrosse IS a physical game. I never had it as a Florida boy growing up so I am unfamiliar with a lot of it, but we all like it.



Secondly, it is a travel team. Last weekend took us to Charlotte, North Carolina. We got in town just as a strong cold front was making it's way into town and we enjoyed some cold and frosty mornings. I think it made our boy's play even better. When we go on these trips we have dubbed it "It's all about Teddy weekends".
What this mean is Sam is at left behind covering the home front and the zoo of pets and Ted chooses everything (well almost).
He picks what we will eat, where we stay, times for arrivals and departures, and what extra activities we do. We all get a kick out of this and it all has worked out rather well.





The tournament went very well for us considering the first one was last April in Parkland and I believe the team went 1 and 4.
The team has improved immensely over the last 6 months. They won 4 games and was the #1 seed going into the playoffs but they got beat by a very good team from Atlanta.
They took the loss kinda hard.





Our next and last tournament for this team will be in 2 weeks outside of Tampa and we will look forward to another Teddy weekend. Good luck Blue Devils it's been a fun and very educational year. I know you will all do fine.

Driving a van,
