I woke up to sunshine so bright this morning, that I was momentarily blinded when I looked out the front door window. Sitting at the kitchen table, I was serenaded 🗣️🎶 by birds - also happy with the sunshine 😊
When the sleepy cobwebs were cleared, and I could see again without sun spots dancing before my eyes … I started strength 💪 & body toning 🧘🏽, exercises - stretching being the focus, today 👌

Cycling is a great way to boost circulation and strengthen the muscles in your legs. The pedaling motion helps stimulate the production of synovial fluid, which lubricates your joints and allows them to move more easily - this motion also stimulates blood flow and helps prevent venous insufficiency.
Unlike high-impact activities, cycling with a pedal exerciser doesn't put excessive stress on your knees, hips, or ankles. Regular use builds strength in the muscles around your knee, providing better support and reducing pressure on the joint.

Last night, my husband showed me what the weather in Florida looks like right now 😲🥶 I'm GLAD 👏 we skipped Florida! Honestly, the BEST place for us to BE right now, is where we've been since August 30th, 2025: during this period of sketchy Earth Cycling (the [reset] demonrat screeching shills never consider), Yeshua's hand of mercy 🤝 has been over us 💖, here in Coalinga-CA; where we have been sheltered from the raging wildfires 🔥 that devastated CA regions; raging floods 🌊 that ravaged the PNW; hurricane force sand storms 🌬️ that scored their way across AZ ... unprecedented rain storms ☔️ that sent record-setting water racing through AZ washes and neighborhoods; & historic snowfalls ❄️ on the East Coast. It has been cold here 🧦👕🧣, and our electricity bill has matched our space rent 😱 - but, we've been righteously shielded & our home is secure.
We are greatly blessed & eternally thankful 🙏
Earlier this week 📅, Florida experienced a record-breaking 117-year-old cold snap in cities like Daytona Beach and Vero Beach 😲 The freeze caused snow flurries and freezing iguanas, with temperatures dropping into the 20s°F and 30s°F in various areas 😱 The cold weather also led to power outages and stress on infrastructure, as many residents turned on heating systems to combat the extreme temperatures. Florida's is not accustomed 🤦🏻♀️ to such severe winter conditions - though there have been occasional severe freezes; reported since the 1980's.
And Earth's weather cycling just kept on cycling 🌎👀
{{Cuba Just Had Its First Freeze On Record
The same cold outbreak that smashed records across Florida and the Southeast earlier this week also toppled some all-time records in Cuba, the Bahamas and Central America.
By Jonathan Erdman•20 hours ago
Cuba just had its first freeze on record, and other records were smashed from the Bahamas to Central America from the same cold outbreak that left Florida and the eastern U.S. shivering last weekend.
On Tuesday morning, the Indio Hatuey weather station in Perico, Cuba, reported a low of 32 degrees, a new national all-time record low, according to Cuba's weather service, the Instituto de Meteorología Cuba (INSMET). The previous record of 33 degrees was set in Bainoa almost 30 years ago on Feb. 18, 1996.
Frost was apparently seen on crops around the weather station, according to a Tuesday Facebook post from INSMET.
It appears four other stations in Cuba tied or set new all-time record lows in this cold snap, according to INSMET and weather records expert Maximiliano Herrera:
- Aguada de Passengeros: 37 degrees (3 degrees Celsius)
- Jucarito and Santa Cruz del Sur: 44 degrees (6.8 degrees Celsius)
- Guantanamo Bay: 57 degrees (13.9 degrees Celsius) tied
Six other weather stations tied or set new February records, ranging from 43 to 46 degrees.
More Cold Records
Cuba wasn't the only place shivering.
On Sunday, the high in Freeport, Bahamas, reached only 51 degrees, the coldest high temperature on record anywhere in the Bahamas, according to Herrera. That's more typical of early February in Nashville, over 800 miles northwest of Freeport.
Herrera also found Flores, Guatemala, tied its all-time record low of 48 degrees, while a mountain station (Finca Los Andes, elevation about 5,500 feet) in western El Salvador set its February record of 38 degrees.
Belize had its coldest low since 1968, dropping to 42 degrees, Herrera noted.
Cold Fronts Aren't Unusual
This was from the same cold outbreak that smashed records in the eastern U.S., from Ohio and Pennsylvania to Florida and the Southeast.
But winter's arctic cold fronts often don't stop once plowing through Florida.
The Bahamas, Cuba, Mexico's Yucatán Peninsula and Belize are usually close enough to the U.S. to witness a few cold fronts make it that far south each winter, plowing southward from the Gulf into the western Caribbean Sea.
Last Saturday was the eighth such cold front of the season in Cuba, according to INSMET, accompanied by 40- to 50-mph wind gusts.
These winds pushed water from the Gulf into the waterfront in Havana on Sunday, crashing over the seawall and flooding several city streets.

What is happening (weather-wise & otherwise) is nothing new to Earth's Cycle; just new to us, who happen to be living through it 🤔🤷♀️
