It took 293 days and 2,906 miles, but I finally reached the finish line last night! I got almost 46,000 coins, even though there isn’t anything I can do with them.

It was a beautiful ride. There were just a few blocky sections, but they didn't last long. I was a little frustrated at first because when I got down to 0.0 miles, the finish line just wouldn't pop up! So, I pulled up the map and saw a little bit of a red line left. A couple of minutes later, I hit it. Now I'm going to enjoy shorter rides that other people made until the mood strikes to do another long ride I made.

Hurricane Beryl is said to be the first major hurricane that’s come this early in the year. I remember most of them coming around September. So yeah, global warming is definitely stirring things up. It’s not coming for us, though. It’s going to Mexico and then Texas.

I hear the mowers now, but they’re not mowing us because Tom has the little orange flags out blocking the side and the front due to the seeds he put down. I’m still worried he’s just throwing money away. Countless others have claimed they can’t get grass to grow no matter what they do. He says he wants to be more active, but I really think it’s about kissing up and sending the park the wrong message—one that says they can boss us around at will as if we’re their children.

No cold spells yesterday. I swear I went from hot flashing to cold flashing. I still have spells where I’m utterly freezing, and I don’t know why for sure. I thought it was connected to my thyroid, and most of it probably is, but thyroids don’t fluctuate that much.

I keep forgetting to mention… it worked! Putting an acrylic overlay on the split nail cured it.
