Saw it Again to the West this time.Large Colorful Pulsating Light

Posted a report about a Dec 23rd sighting of a pulsating color changing light in the sky east of I75 in Manatee county. Well I saw it again this morning, this time in the Western sky over the gulf of mexico. Same object but much, much farther away. This time I was able to view it through binoculars for appx 30 minutes. Actually got my wife out of bed and made her watch it with me. I am a little freaked out as to what the heck this was. This time with the aid of 16x32 power and also 7x50 power bino's I was able too observe many, much smaller points of light dance all around the larger object. The large object again pulsated and changed from red to blue to green to yellow. It Appeared to remain stationary for the 1st 20 minutes of observation as the smaller red and blue points of light danced all around the large object. Had too be at least 10 to 12 of them but they were so fast and erratic in their movement that it was hard to confirm an exact count. After ap! px 20 minutes the small points of light just merged into the Large object and it slowly began to drift up and to the south. From my location/angle it appeared to rise in the sky about a foot and drift to the south about 4 feet. Then it just dissappeared like someone turned off a light. No flash, No nothing, just there one second gone the next. So now my wife and I are both freaked out a little and as we take our dogs for their morning walk as I proceed to tell her about my Dec 23rd sighting that occured the previous morning. Same object without the little light's dancing and much, much closer/larger. When we got home from walking the dogs I went back outside to see if anything had returned to the area in the sky we saw the object. Saw nothing at first but then I thought I might be seeing some twinkling lights around the same general area in the sky. Looked through the Bino's and saw 2 Military jets flying all around the area flying larger and larger circles. The scale of th! e jets were that of the small dancing light making the scale o! f the la rger object HUGE!!! This went on for appx 25mins then they headed out over the Gulf of Mexico out of site. Just like yesterday someone else had too see this. Any body looking to the west towards the Gukl around the same time could not have possibly missed these lights. They were very distinct and Bright. 0331exmc
