Well…what was so important when Biden was in office now isn’t I guess…whenever Joe made a gaffe, which he did his entire life, it would be the most damning thing and every mainstream media outlet would go on and on about it…constantly saying he should retire because he mixed up a name or forgot something…but with the idiot trump? He gets to just make shit up and there is never a report in any media outlet at all…just lately, idiot boy was going on and on that his uncle taught the Unabomber at MIT…the only problem is that he was never enrolled at MIT…and his uncle died before anyone even knew who the Unabomber was…but not one damn reported called him on it…he is constantly making up conversations that never happened…he even forgot the name of the Japanese premier, calling him Mr. Japan…and at an energy summit in Pennsylvania this past week he couldn’t make a bit of sense in any conversation he had with the media…and again, no follow up questions when he just lied and lied…this is a lot more serious than Biden’s decline was since idiot boy has surrounded himself with a gaggle of fascists who know that they can manipulate him all day long…and they do it all day long…geez…

Still Trying…
Well…have been trying to find a political topic to do today but no such luck so far…I did get the rides in and the car cleaned and waxed and even did the entire interior along with the glass and then ran over to the library to get more books that will last me until the damn motorcycle rally is over…there is no place left to park for the people that live here and that sucks…making an easy town into a pain in the butt until Sunday night…and they just did a sound check for one of the stages and it sounds like it’s in my front yard…that is really going to suck later…I have been getting the cleaning done and need to get the floors done today right after I do this one…have the microwave clean and will do the stove and countertops later and that will just leave the bathroom and living room to do…and a day and a half to do them…okay, time to get off my butt and get moving…I’ll be back for a political one later…
July 17th
Well…damn, running late today and I just poured the first cup of coffee at 6:39 so that will mean I won’t be on the bike til 7 or so and that makes me late for the entire day…a cold front came through last night but we didn’t get a drop of rain from it and that sucks…it’s only 62 out there right now and the wind is blowing like crazy so the rides will be a chore…the high is going to be only 72 today and that will be a relief after the nearly 90′s we’ve been enduring…my damn right elbow is howling in pain and has been for almost a week now so I’ll have to take some ibuprofen for it in a bit….don’t think I’ll go to the beach today since it’s not going to be warm enough and I have too much to do anyway…need to clean the kitchen today and mop all the floors after I clean the car and go to the library…so it will be a busy day…again…and I need to get it started soon…slept better last night but I sure don’t feel like it right now and I sure hope that’s not my life from now on…more later…
Got some cleaning done…
Well…after the good news yesterday, I vowed to myself that I was going to go out to the beach to make up for cutting my swim time short to come home and see the results of the tests…so, of course, I did wake up a little happier today and got right into the rides at 6:30am…then did the grocery run, and then out to the beach by 10:30am…where I stayed until noon or so since I really did have to get cleaning and I did…have the dining room cleaned and will work on the kitchen tomorrow and should be able to finish that but I do want to clean the car since it is coated with dust it’s been so dry up here…so it will be two rides and then clean the car…and I do need to hit the library to get more books after the car is done…and I need to remember to just use a little of the car wash soap since I used about 5 times more than I should have last time…not sure if I’ll wax it again but I probably will since it only takes about 10 minutes to do…and I do have new wheel/tire cleaner that I want to try…okay…need to read a bit before tv…
A little bit of everything…
Well…let’s talk about the ICE expansion in the big ugly bill that the repubs rammed through with no dem votes…thye are going to be given 45 billion dollars to build new detention centers (concentration camps) across the country…guess how much they have for affordable housing…12 billion dollars…yep and this ugly bill takes food assistance from 270,000 veterans…all to give tax breaks to billionaires…and those tax breaks are only going to the rich…for example, in Maine those making over 800K per year will get a 34,000 dollar tax cut…while the poorest Mainers will get 30 bucks…hmmm…does that seem fair to you? Is that equal as the repubs continue to lie about? Oh, and let’s remember the epstein files and the fact that trump and his cronies are engaged in a huge coverup using the entire government to do it…and it’s not because there are dems in epstein’s client list…you know who was involved in sex with underage girls and his address is the WH….geez…
July 16th
Well…darn…up at 4:53 this morning and that is going to make for a long day today since I can’t take naps anymore…it was such a good day yesterday except for the crappy copy of “Superman” that I tried to watch last night but it had advertising type floating all over the screen and that was so damn annoying that I shut it off after a few minutes…I did grind some beans for today’s coffee and it just tastes so good I wonder why I don’t do that all the time? I have 6+ pounds of beans in the drawer and I haven’t even gone through the first bag I bought months ago…it’s going to be a little busy today with getting the first ride in then doing the grocery run…I do want to clean the car today since it is so dusty and filled with sand from the beach trips and I am going to do a full beach run since I cut yesterday short with the mychart notification…man, I have been so lucky with my health lately that I want to just relax and live for a bit…so I’ll have to haul ass so I can get to the beach by 10:30 or so…the math doesn’t work, though since I’ll still need to do the second ride after the grocery run and won’t be done with that til 10:30…maybe I’ll wait to clean the car til tomorrow? I did get started cleaning this place up and need to keep working on that later today…the kitchen needs work and I’ll clean the microwave today along with the sinks…I do still want to carve out some time to read so I can finish the last book and get a few more from the library but I’m going to cut back on that to get other things done around here…ha,ha…they have a 70% chance of storms tonight and I am laughing at that forecast…it just doesn’t rain here…more later…
Maga hates Superman…
Well…with the release of the new Superman movie, the maga assholes are going nuts because this superman admits he’s an “illegal immigrant” and believes in social justice and caring for people…and punching nazis in the face…and the contrast to maga and the idiot trump’s actions can’t be clearer…with maga the cruelty and mistreatment of people is the point and I could see the “alligator alcatraz” that ICE just built in Florida would have been the target of Superman since the start of the comic in 1938…and this caring for people has been a main theme from the start…and a superhero who actually protects the downtrodden? That’s too much for all of the maga assholes who are predicting the movie will fail and no one will want to see it…yeah, as always they are wrong since the movie has wracked up almost 150 million dollars since it opened only 4 days ago…doesn’t sound like failure to me…they just can’t stand that their maga hate is being exposed by this movie…and, of course, if the superhero tries to help people the movie must be “woke” as the maga assholes spew their nonsense…what the hell is wrong with these people who can’t have any empathy for anyone but white christian nationalists…no one else deserves protection they way they think…and it makes me smile that something as simple as a movie sets their hair on fire and exposes them…geez…
Just got the test results..
Well…just go the test results of the ultrasound and everything is pretty normal…no masses in the liver and no cirrosis…no gall stones and spleen is normal so I’ll bet the high billirubin IS from being dehydrated…so, it looks I’ll live for a few more months anyway…probably the best results I could have hoped for…yay! and I just got a call from my doctor’s office confirming that there are no problems and nothing to do but check the levels in November…yay, again! Lucky day for me…
July 15th
Well…damn, I’m sore today after all of the work yesterday but today will be a little easier after I get done with the rides and the periodontist appointment…I do need to get started cleaning and I may run over to menards to get some lawn food to feed my burned out lawn with the rain that is supposed to be coming in the next few days…darn, I hurt so much that I just took an ibuprofen for the first time in a long time…it looks like a break in the weather Thurs with highs in the 70′s and we really need some relief….and I need to get some home defense bug killer since I’m getting lots of spiders and other bugs in here and the old stuff I have has a broken sprayer and that’s annoying…and a gallon of spectracide is only 6 bucks at menards…so maybe I’ll skip the beach today so I can get the food on the lawn and get the fridge and dining room cleaned…might be a good day to play a little vinyl while I work….going to get a 2nd cup of coffee down before I head out on the bike and that is going to happen before 7am…more later…
A busy, busy day…
Well…I really hadn’t planned to have such a busy day today but it turned out it was…started out with getting the two rides in and then decided to hit the beach for a swim and the water was just perfect so I was in it for a good 45 minutes…then back here for lunch and then made potato salad and right after that, I decided to get the yard work done so I took the cover off the car, fired it up, and drove it around the block hitting the brakes hard to try to get some of the rust off the rotors and then mowed where the car sits…after getting the cover back on it, I decided to mow the rest of the lawn and trim some branches off the trees…after that, I did laundry and just put that away…then put the trash trolley out and now I need to do my teeth and make ice…no cocktails tonight with the periodontist appointment at 10 tomorrow morning…oh, I forgot, ran out to DD to get more braunschweiger and a package of black forest ham and a pound of kielbasa…so now I just want to have a few minutes to read…this has been a really busy day…
