for the most part this week has been mid 60s climbing up to mid 80s by the end of the day. and as i generally do most of my work before lunch, it's a welcome change for me.

usually in FL you can't really do anything after 2pm anyway in the summer, but it also gives me the rest of the day to myself after doing my 8 hours :D

so many leaves and branches on the ground right now i don't think many people care.. at least not down here lol... you should see it.. the roads aren't lined with grass they're lined with chopped up trees after this storm.
