Castles made of sand…

Summary of last week:
Monday - Fay begins dumping rain on southern Florida, but I don’t see any all day. I get Tuesday off.
Tuesday - Fay makes land fall in southern Florida. It starts raining early morning Tuesday. Fay moves towards east central Florida. I get Wednesday off.
Wednesday - Fay sits off the coast of east central Florida. More rain pretty much all day. Flooding. During part of the day, the center of circulation was close enough that it wasn’t raining for part of the morning. I get Thursday off.
Thursday - Fay starts moving slowly. More rain. More flooding.
Friday - Back to work. No real major flooding in my area, but other people in the county weren’t so lucky.

Fay’s track went from hitting the other side of the state to going almost right over me. Boo. It did give me a day off of work. Hopefully it won’t cause any damage.

Life is like a jigsaw puzzle: we go about asking ourselves, “does this piece fit here, or here, or here….” Sometimes they fit, sometimes they don’t. Oh, and no one gave us the picture on the front of the box.

Too many people are thinking of security instead of opportunity. They seem more afraid of life than death.
