It was cold, windy and cloudy all day today but just as the sun went down the clouds cleared, the temperatures dropped like a rock and out comes Mr. Moon.  I wished this photo was better but it was just too cold for my hands to operate.

The overgrown rodent has predicted another six more weeks of winter and I for one is ready for winter to pack her bags and leave.  The weather here doesn’t seem to know exactly what to do.  It was in the 60’s on Saturday and right now it’s in the 20’s.  There is even talk of snow later on this week.  Can’t wait until spring time.

Another dreary, wet day in the deep south.  With the temps hovering in the low to mid forties and low thick clouds that hung around most of the day made this boy wish for spring even more today.  Rain is falling right now and is expected to stick around until early Saturday morning with a chance of light snow before ending.

I have a photo shoot scheduled for Saturday afternoon with a young single mom.  Nothing too fancy just some catalogue work.  I haven’t photographed anyone in quite some time.  Lately all I’ve been able to shoot are some landmarks and my pets.  I hope she isn’t afraid of some cool weather and we get some good shots.

The above photo is from the Botanical Gardens located here in the Birmingham area.  It’s free to enter and has sever genre of flowers and trees to sit and ponder things through.  I really enjoy going there when I have the time to spend.  The last time I was there I nearly had a hawk on top of me.  She was after a squirrel and I got in her way.

New Year New Start

cold weather, Cycling, diet, Weight loss

I posted back in December that I was starting over.  It didn’t work.  I failed.  Just too many food items to contend with.  I decided to start again with the new year.  Today is the 2nd day of my diet and I’ve done pretty well.  I’ve kept my calories down below 2000 but my steps have not been up to par.  I’m going to work on that. I haven’t lost any weight yet but that’s because I haven’t exercised to amount to anything.  I’m looking at my treadmill and I just can’t get excited about it.  I just can’t wait until warmer weather so I can get out and ride my bike.  I hate being cold.  Next week winter will officially hit here in the deep south.  It will be in the single digits come Monday and Tuesday morning. I shiver just thinking about it.
