And, the rain is almost here.

Kayla Tsukino @kaylachan (84702) • Daytona Beach, Florida 27 Oct

I can hear thunder which means we might get rain. We're expecting a cold front that'll peak on Friday. At least if we do get rain, it'll be it for a while. George had me put on a race, we've got several pre-recorded from...

So today the weather forecaster told us a storm was coming through. In fact they have told us for a while it was coming. They do that. The worst of it would be on the South Coast of the U.K, named Storm Benjamin by the French...

I hear thunder ….i see lightning ….i don’t like it !

Traceyjayne @Traceyjayne (11252) • United Kingdom 3 Sep

No, I am definitely a person who hates a storm. The rumbling of thunder I don’t actually mind that much, it’s just that it’s usually followed by the lightning which is the thing that I really don’t like. I can not be anywhere...

Traceyjayne @Traceyjayne (11252) • United Kingdom 21 Jul

So today should have been the day that the window cleaner comes to Moms. He usually rings the day before just to confirm. He didn’t ring yesterday as we were having storms. I spoke to Mom a few minutes ago and she confirmed that...

Well nice surprise and destressing day.

Kayla Tsukino @kaylachan (84702) • Daytona Beach, Florida 11 Jun

I saw the dollar signs this morning and realized I got pad. Disappointingly, a 11 days in, and I've only made 1.05 this month and it'll be difficult to reach 5 at this rate. and I'm putting a lot of energy in. We've already had...

Good later afternoon.

Kayla Tsukino @kaylachan (84702) • Daytona Beach, Florida 11 May 25

I'll be honest. I haven't felt motivated to post today. When it takes ten days to make a dollar, something I could easily do in four-five, then it can be de-motivating. I know some people might be concerned if I vanished off the...
