Afternoon. The boys are playing on their
iPads. Kim and Paul are sitting in chairs under a large yellow umbrella on the
beach. Carol is reading in the living room with the boys. You are in the
bedroom sitting in an outdoor chair and working the MacAir on an outside white
table overlooking the grand green hued Gulf of Mexico while listening to the
Beatles on your Pandora ‘Traveling Wilburys’ station.
1412 hours. “Come together, right now,
over me” so sing the once Fab Four. Such is our life in Madeira Beach in the
present.
Mid-afternoon. Kim and Paul are taking the
boys out to the beach/pool.
1627 hours.
After a half hour chat you are back and Carol is six feet away getting some sun
on the balcony – lots of sun and placid waters this afternoon. No music, just
the whir of the bedroom ceiling fan.
A
good time to work on Dewdrop, boy. – Amorella

Mid-morning. Everyone has had breakfast. The boys and Paul are playing a game and Carol and Kim are reading the morning St. Petersburg Times. You are waiting for the Fitbit to charge and everyone is waiting on Bill who will be over after his medical appointments at the Vets, here in St. Pete. Among other lingering problems from being an active Marine in Vietnam – Agent Orange. When you first met Bill after he and Linda were married was in his fifth grade classroom in Tampa. – Amorella
0946 hours. Bill had a wonderful
classroom, full of all kinds of small living critters for observations. He was
a great teacher and stayed in elementary schools as an administrator his entire
career. He still volunteers at the local school near their house. He is a
dedicated professional when it comes to kids, now through coaching.
Bill swam in the pool with everyone this
morning after the hospital visit. When he left to work on his gardening you
left for lunch at Dockside Dave’s. After which the boys played on their iPads.
Tonight supper again with Bill and Jean and perhaps Jen – Conch Republic is the
destination (as of now). You finished chapter four of Elon Musk while
Carol was working on her email. She’s a third through The Last Juror by
Grisham and you are back here. Such is another family day in Madeira Beach. –

1605 hours. I didn’t complete the
editing work on Dewdrop. Now is a good time. It is quiet, plus I had a needed
nap from earlier forty minutes exercises as well as leg exercising in the pool.
1656 hours. Bill called they are on
their way over for supper. I haven’t finished with August 09 in Dewdrop but I
am close. Hope to complete it tonight.
2121
hours. I just posted the edited Notes of August 25 – 31, 2009 on Dewdrop. I
want to say ‘spiritual’ or ‘metaphysical’ Notes but ‘spiritual themed’ or ‘metaphysically
themes’ Notes reads more accurately even though it is also wordier. It also
reads ‘presumptuous and arrogant’ between the lines.
Leave it as ‘edited Notes’ boy because that
is what it is. – Amorella
2133 hours. I have not yet looked at
the September notes for editing. Should I only do a post with so many days and
no more? Do I need a standard in this sense of days and posts?
#Rule: no more than ten days on a single
post. – Amorella
Thank you.
Tonight, as last night, you took photos of
the sunset. You are disappointed in their caliber so far. You also watched the
end of the newest Star Wars. Paul, the boys, Carol and you have seen it before.
Kim had not. Everyone enjoyed the film, the boys especially. – Amorella
2145 hours. It is so much fun watching
Brennan and Owen watching the film; even though they had seen it before both
had large eyes and full attention on the screen. Owen in particular knows the
names of many of the characters already. He reminds me of Kim at his age.
Brennan knows fewer characters but he has the main ones. Earlier this Spring
they began watching the first six films. We had the same excitement when we
first saw the films years ago. I like how a good story continues to live in the
minds of the viewers or readers – most awesome.
