There's a live webcam where you can see it every day.  Hall's Harbour webcam.  High tide is about an hour from now.  Although you might not be able to tell because the wharf is wet from snow and rain, the picnic table in the centre foreground will be standing in a couple of inches of sea water at 1:42 pm Eastern Time today.  Check it again six hours later, and the boats will be high and dry on the harbour floor. 

 

The harbour floor is at the half-tide level, so at low tide, the water is as far below the harbour floor as the dock is above it.  In other words, the picture only shows you half the actual tide range.

I've forgotten, you're on the Fundy side, right?

Those are some monster tides!

Nearby Cobscook Bay has similar tidal range, but lacks the massed tidal bore.

Beautiful day today. had my appointments, My speech was from her office but my counselor was from home. My speech therapist was saying the VA is having everybody who is not essential see their patients from home.

We did head to the hills and try and find an open trail but all are closed to prevent damage.

 

Shawna you just need remote start. I have one in my Lincoln and one in my Explorer. If it is cold and/or snowy I usually take one of the two. I plan on putting one in my 2000 Crown Vic hopefully this summer.

I tried to convince my work that I needed remote start on my work truck and they laughed at me. They said I’m a wuss but all the supervisor trucks have remote start lol

Good morning

We've had patches of weird hail-like snow last 2 days. Today cloudy but supposed to make 40s F later.

Plans include workbook from a former counselor, guitar, and being the opposite of depressed.

I might skip checking the news.

Skipping the news is a great plan!

Along the way I got offered a deal on a classical guitar - La Patrie Presentation all rosewood with spruce top. I had to bite. The sound is amazing! It rings like a bell and the sustain seems to vibrate way up inside your head like a harp.

Otherwise I have two drawings to complete for a small exhibition/fundraiser for the Eureka Springs School of the Arts. Exciting day, if you like sitting and drawing for hours on end!

Cold here in Northern NJ this morning, but the sun is shining brightly and the wind has finally died down.  It's supposed to warm up to the mid 50's today, so a run later this afternoon may be in order.  Enjoying a nice cup of coffee and catching up on the latest patter here in the forums.

 

Happy Saturday to all,

Its still freakin' snowing here in VT.  I swear we are going to go from winter to fall and back to winter.

I'm over the snow.

To day it's going to be 62, tomorrow chance of rain/snow mix. Go figure! Been lounging around in my robe all morning, guess I'd better get dressed but being stuck at home with no place to go makes it easy not to get dressed.

 

Hugs to all from my fortress in Linclon,

Sunny, Windy and Cool today and tomorrow.  But tomorrow late afternoon through Monday morning is expected to be stormy and rain.  At least no snow.  I will have to add lines and dock dock bumpers to add more protection  for my sailboat tomorrow.  I just got done fixing the hull from the damage created by the last bad storm.  I don't need more. 

 

@KathyLauren The video of HallsHarbor is interesting.  The fact that the boats can sit on the bottom without either tilting over or damaging the keel is amazing.

 

Stay safe and healthy.

The bottom is mud, and the boats settle down gently, so there is no damage to the keel.  But tying up so that there is enough slack in the ropes to accommodate the 6.5 metres of tide in the harbour, while keeping it tight enough to neither drift nor tilt over, is quite an art.  Not for amateurs.  One side of the wharf has vertical metal rods that the boat captains can tie up to, so the mooring ropes can slide up and down with the tides.

I can’t argue that!  

Well it makes just about every morning now that I’ve woke minutes before my normal week day alarm and started getting all bent out of shape over needing to get up only to realize it’s the weekend. 
oh thank goodness!!!

So I’m still under my covers. Snug and warm but still not sleeping.  Lol

 Coffee is still hours away.  

Have a blessed day!

Good morning! Thought I would try this due to I’m single and have no one to say good morning to!  I’m Tessa and it’s 6:28 AM in Nebraska. I’m in my bed waiting for sunrise. Today starts my one week vacation and I really need it. I’m working from home for a bank. I work in the collections department. We’re giving out loans. So many sad stories. ? 

 

So I write romance stories on an App called Chapters and submit them for people to read, I journal currently on my 22 journal, see my kids on Tuesdays and every other weekend, love Marilyn Monroe movies, I post inspirational Tic Toc’s on Tic Toc, colored over 300 grown up coloring pages, I’m a photographer and have over 3000 pics in my camera (not a famous one though), I love to hear about people’s passions! 
 

I mostly live in a woman’s mind. I love deeply, love to be cuddled and told I’m beautiful (I don’t think I am) I dream of a special someone holding me in their arms and looking into my eyes and telling me I’m important to them. (I rarely feel this way) I do dress in mainly men’s clothes but I wear both panties and men’s underwear. It all depends on how I feel. (Being open here) 

 

To love someone is to be able to let that person be who they are. That means letting them express their inward emotions and for you to validate those emotions and not discard them. My ex wife told me I acted like a woman in our relationship because I wanted the affection all the time. Now being alone I have learned I have to give myself love and not push away my feelings. Self love comes in many different forms. There’s no one way right for everyone. For me (This might be crazy) but it’s pretending I have someone with me and they hold me and listen to me. I’ve never just been held and loved. My ex pushed me away. 
 

I know I have a great love to give to someone! They will have to understand who Tessa is though. I can’t just not be me. I was that for years. I may be male but inside I’m screaming female. I love to look pretty. I do my nails and pick out a cute outfit. Mainly men’s clothes but I make it look good. 
 

I miss human touch. I miss someone saying I love you. I miss being held at night. (I’ve never experienced this) I miss someone giving me a back rub. I’m sorry....(has to cry) 

 

that’s all folks 

 

love Tessa?‍?

Woke up and looked out my window.  Sure enough, the snow is making its predicted comeback.  I am so ready for warmth that is steady, but now I am pouty 'cuz the sky is so cloudy...

 

Welcome, @Tessa! It is always nice to see something new around here!

Emily, Not unheard of in this area. In 84 on my way to Ellsworth AFB my first time. It was just after a major blizzard. 36" in 37 hrs. and this was mid May. I was seeing the remnants of the drifts under the over passes.

 

Well, woke to snow, yea. still lightly coming down. about 2" on the ground as of now. Forecast for it to last until tomorrow.

 

Have a good Easter. Everyone stay safe and healthy.

 

Hugs

Kymmie

      I firmly believe I drank entirely to much for about 25 years. Got drunk every day. This was my coping mechanism to keep hiding deep inside that I was a woman. I miss a lot of signs over the years. Now I drink mabye 1 or 2 beers a day don't even get a buzz anymore. totally accept myself and on regret is that I hide that part of my self which  truly makes me happy being violet 💜. I wasted a lot of time before  being self destructive and had no clue I was just hiding th real me

      Hey, everyone. my life is going down the tubes. at least I think. So, today. A customer called about his car, I told him that the oil change was done. The parts to fix the check engine light are ordered. He can come and get it. For the weekend if he wants. Customer says I didn't want an oil change. it was check the engine light and check for an oil leak. Checking the work order says oil change. The boss wrote the vehicle up. checking with the customer on services wanted.   Being that I wrote down the appointment in the book. and clearly states oil leak. She is complaining because she can't read my small ish writing. It seems she read oil and assumed it as an oil change. It seems like she is blaming me.  She wound up going home because she was too upset. She is stressing about an eye problem she has, she has to get eye surgery it seems she has a tear in her eye.    I feel that I am short for this job. because of the BS they are blaming me on. Plus I am still upset about the trust issue. If either one of the bosses start their Shite tomorrow. I am walking out.

      "I love you so much,"  Lois said.  They met in the driveway. "I could not live without you." "Neither could I." "What are we going to do?" "Find another counselor?" "No. I think we need to solve this ourselves." "Do you think we can?" "I don't know.  But what I know is that I don't want to go through that again.  I think we have to hope we can find a solution." "Otherwise, despair." "Yeah.   Truce?" "Okay,  truce." And they hugged.   "When we know what we want we can figure out how to get there."   That began six years of angry battles, with Odie insisted he could dress as he pleased and Lois insisting it did not please her at all.  He told her she was not going to control him and she replied that she still had rights as a wife to a husband. Neither was willing to give in, neither was willing to quit, and their heated arguments ended in hugs and more.   They went to a Crossdressers' Club, where they hoped to meet other couples with the same problems, the same conflicts, and the same answers, if anyone had any.  It took them four tries before they settled on a group that they were both willing to participate in.  This was four couples their own age, each with a cross dressing husband and a wife who was dealing with it.  They met monthly.  It was led by a 'mediator' who wanted people to express how they felt about the situation.  Odie and Lois, as newcomers, got the floor, and the meeting was finally dismissed at 1:30 in the morning - it was supposed to be over at 10 - and everyone knew how they felt about the situation.   There was silence in the car on the way home.   "We aren't the only ones dealing with this." Odie finally said.   "Who would have thought that?  You are right."   "Somebody out there has a solution." "I hope you are right."   "I hope in hope, not in despair."   "That's my Odie."

      The counseling session was heated, if you could call it a counseling session.  Sometimes Lois felt he was on Odie's side, and sometimes on hers.  When he was on her side, Odie got defensive. She found herself being defensive when it seemed they were ganging up on each other.   "This is not working," Lois said angrily, and walked out.  "Never again. I want my husband back. Dr. Smith you are complicit in this."   "What?" said Odie.   The counselor looked at him.  "You will have to learn some listening skills."   "That is it? Listening skills?  You just destroyed my marriage, and you told me I need to learn listening skills?"   Dr. Smith said calmly,"I think you both need to cool off."   Odie looked at him and walked out, saying "And you call yourself a counselor."   "Wait a minute."   "No."

      I have read some of it, mostly in areas specifically targeted at the LGBTQ+ peoples.   You also have to take into account what and who is behind the words, not just the words themselves. Together that creates context, right? Let's take some examples, under the Department of Health & Human Services section:   "Radical actors inside and outside government are promoting harmful identity politics that replaces biological sex with subjective notions of “gender identity” and bases a person’s worth on his or her race, sex, or other identities. This destructive dogma, under the guise of “equity,” threatens American’s fundamental liberties as well as the health and well-being of children and adults alike."   or   "Families comprised of a married mother, father, and their children are the foundation of a well-ordered nation and healthy society. Unfortunately, family policies and programs under President Biden’s HHS are fraught with agenda items focusing on “LGBTQ+ equity,” subsidizing single-motherhood, disincentivizing work, and penalizing marriage. These policies should be repealed and replaced by policies that support the formation of stable, married, nuclear families."   From a wording perspective, who doesn't want to protect the health and well-being of Americans or think that families aren't good for America? But let's take a look at the author, Roger Severino. He's well-quoted to be against LGBTQ+ anything, has standard christian nationalist views, supports conversion therapy, etc.   So when he uses words like "threatens the health and well-being of children and adults alike" it's not about actual health, it's about enforcing cis-gendered ideology because he (and the rest of the Heritage Foundation) believe LGBTQ+ people and communities are harmful. Or when he invokes the family through the lens of, let's just say dog whistles including the "penalization of marriage" (how and where?!), he idealizes families involving marriage of a "biological male to a biological female" and associates LGBTQ+ family equity as something unhealthy.   Who are the radical actors? Who is telling people to be trans, gay, or queer in general? No one. The idea that there can be any sort of equity between LGBTQ+ people and "normal" cis people is abhorrent to the author, so the loaded language of radical/destructive/guise/threaten are used. Families that he believes are "good" are stable/well-ordered/healthy, specifically married/nuclear ones.   Start looking into intersectionality of oppression of non-privileged groups and how that affects the concept of the family and you will understand that these platitudes are thinly veiled wrappers for christian nationalist ideology.   What's wrong with equity for queer families, to allow them full rights as parents, who are bringing up smart and able children? Or single mothers who are working three jobs to get food on plates?

      Well yesterday didn't work like I wanted to. I met a guy and started talking and he was wanting to be in a relationship. I asked my kids on how they thought of me dating a man and they said gross and said no. I guess it's time to look for women. I think that is going to be harder. Oh well I guess.
