Well, it's Monday. Outside it's 68 (F). That's not the best sleeping temp, but it's not bad. It will be deteriorating (getting warmer) during the week as a mini-heatwave rushes past us. Then, we fall back into more seasonal temps.
In comparison, the temp right now in Athens is 91 (F), and in Delphi 77 (F). Delphi, contrary to what many may believe is halfway up Mount Parnassus. It gets cold there in the winter. In fact, there's a ski resort a few miles away. Isn't that fascinating. All of my life I thought Greece, being in the Mediterranean, was more tropical than anything else. And they still wore togas when it was cold, though they were thick. This is because the wearing pants was considered effeminate. My, how things change.
I should have provided more information about my neighbor before yesterday's post, she is not your average stay-at-home mom and mother. They are from Lancaster, about 45 minutes away, and because that's where her mom lives, she doesn't talk to anyone in the neighborhood. If she's outside and I go out to do lawn work, she goes back into their house. She and I doo talk occasionally, and she told me once that she thinks everyone is staring at her, (no one cares). Instead of taking the garbage out and putting it in the trash bin, she throws the garbage bags out the back door and lets her husband put them in their garbage cans. The wall separating our houses is poorly soundproofed, so I can tell you she needs the power naps because she stays up late watching TV. Tammy, my neighbor across the street, has told me on more than one occasion that she's just "freakin' weird," though she didn't use the word freak.
Anyway, people keep asking me if I've started packing. The answer's yes.
I wasn't the least bit surprised The Felon wants to skip the debate; he's a tiny scared little man.
ReplyDeleteHe's going to have a difficult time avoiding the "I told you sos."
DeleteOh, you know Cheeto is gonna try and sneak his way out of the debate cause Kamala is gonna sweep the floor with him. Kamala's cam is pushing for him to use the mic (not silent) so see how much shit he talks. Devilish.
ReplyDeleteAnd in many places in the Mediterranean you change climate just by climbing a mountain or going across the Pyrenees.. Same in South America.
I want pictures of you talking to cute Greek dudes, btw. Tell them you know someone in the Untied States who is going to enjoy them very much.
XOXO
I don't if she'll sweep the floor with him as much as she will simply hose him down the drain.
DeleteThat's right... Greek dudes.
Trump is 10 pounds of shit in a 1 pound bag, and that bag is bursting ! :)
ReplyDeleteThat bag's been dripping for quite some time.
DeleteWow, that neighbour does sound "freaking weird". Could it be mental illness? And glad to see you've started packing!
ReplyDeleteBelieve me when I tell you "freaking weird," doesn't even come close.
