Another Monday I get to stay home thanks to the Government furlough (since February 13th). I have been renovating two bedrooms in the home, so I guess I don't need to burn any vacation days.
Here is a salute to a perfect day.

A catchy tune from the 1970s, just for you @sizzlinsophieb.bsky.social

I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend and I pray that the rain in Portugal & Spain would finally end for all my friends over there.

I am driving 25-minutes to my Government job to sign a document that says "Due to the Government shutdown, I am not allowed to come to work." Then I drive straight back home.

Here is a tune to cheer up your Monday.

Working at my desk this ugly Monday morning and this song popped up on my playlist.
For a brief 3 minutes I was whisked away to happier days.

Bom dia Bluesky!
This song played with hiking up the treadmill this morning.

Good morning Bluesky!
If you are a model based in the Carolinas or frequently travel through South Carolina, please drop me a comment.
Meanwhile, here is a tune I heard while running on the hamster wheel at the gym.

Mentally, I am not at my best. Everything on the news is causing me to have anger issues and feelings of helplessness. So I am going to try to focus entirely on my photography and healing.

I have plans to photograph a Brazilian model tomorrow and cannot wait. Although our accents will be different, I feel confident my Portuguese skills will allow me to guide her through the session.
Until then, a song from a famous Portuguese actress.

Last day at work for a few days. Yesterday was a great day when I found a Sweet Potato Pie at the grocery store. So much better than Pumpkin Pie, in my opinion.
Here is an oldie, but goodie to listen to.

Thursday, and you know what that means? You have almost made it to Friday.

I took a walk in the brisk air today and loved every minute of it. Autumn and winter are my two favorite seasons simply because summers in South Carolina are oppressively hot.
But not today. Today was a perfect day.

Another random song on my playlist today. Great song, and from just one of the several albums I have from Melissa. However, I cannot help but laugh at the hairstyles in this video.

This was the first song on my random playlist this morning. A beautiful way to hit the rowing machine at the gym.

It's been a while since I have shared a Tune of the Day. I've had a lot going on, between researching a Visa to live in Portugal and returning to my Government job while trying to get paid again. There is a light at the end of the tunnel.

It's my first day back to work since September! I may have missed my coworkers, but did not miss working. And apparently the shit hit the fan while I was gone and there will be changes. Love it!
So let's get back in a routine and just push PLAY.

Almost time for my Portuguese lesson. It has become clear to me that my "Great European Retirement 2027" should be bumped up to October 2026. My mental health can't take much more and it is almost impossible to not see the news.
Enjoy the Tune of the Day.

Day 36 of the Furlough (aka Practice Retirement)
Woke up this morning and read the latest news. I am in such a good mood as I dance in the kitchen making coffee and breakfast.
Although I prefer the album version, there is something about this "unplugged version".

Day 35 of my furlough. I am now predicting this goes past Christmas. Fun times, eh?
Today's Tune of the Day is one I had in my head early in the morning and need to listen to. You can't hear this song and be in a bad mood, just like banjo music. ๐

Day 34 of the furlough.
Cheeto Jesus said on TV he has no plans to negotiate to end the shutdown.
I can pay bills until January, but after that I will have to sell the house (before foreclosure risk) and move to Portugal.

I hope everyone has a safe and fun "Halloween Night".
I am going waaaaay back for this one, I remember when the song came out and think it is appropriate for today's Tune of the Day. Horrible video, however. ๐๐๐ฎ

Does anyone else remember the old Atari game "M.U.L.E."? I would play that for hours and wish I could play today. I always think back to that game while listening to this Tune of the Day, especially at the 2:12 mark.

Day 29 of the Furlough and no paycheck. Most people hear the name Meredith Brooks and think of the song "Bitch", which was totally overplayed on the radio. Personally, I thought this was the best song on the album.

Day 24 of the Furlough and I will not be surprised if this beats the 35-day record.
This song/video came out while I was in USAF bootcamp, so a lot of memories to simpler times.
