Rainy Day....

HIGH WINDS AND RAIN!!
Well today has been a lazy lazy day. Its raining outside...and I hadn't had a chance to take out the dogs until an hour ago... Eddie and I are both either reading or playing on this computer... I myself, have been playing on this blog site for too many hours!
The wind is really picking up...and the boat is rocking heavily from side to side. I keet hearing it banging on the dock which isnt good...and which also means I need to go and fix it before the rain picks up and I get soaked!!
So I went outside to adjust the lines from the stern on the starboard side. My buddy...Captain Neil has been teaching me about the wind direction and how to adjust the lines correctly, so I thought I'd go and try myself. Wrong!! The wind is really strong... so even though I tried... the boat kepts shifting towards the portside and I'm not strong enough (YET) to pull it back.... unfortunately..I had to get Eddies help. What a girl I am... haha... I guess I need to work on that(my strength) a bit!!
Now the boat is set and its gently rocking back and forth... I'm now back in the comfort of my cool BUT dry cabin....and I'm looking around for something to do......the galley needs to be cleaned..haha..as well as the rest of the boat... but I'm going to stick to being lazy... atleast I can catch up on my reading. I'm currently working on my Rescue and Recovery and Divemaster books...along with "Maiden Voyage" by Tania Aebi. (yes.. I tend to do too many things at once...haha..and then never finish...)
So long... for now... hope everyone is having a great day....I'm going to go and see if Eddie will cook me another fabulous meal for dinner!!
Boredom creates hunger...... and I'm famished!!
