Well….I did get a few things done yesterday so that was not a total waste….and I got a good bike ride in but my lower back is hurting again…went over a hundred miles and that didn’t happen until into April last year and I still almost made 3K miles….so maybe this year will be better….didn’t sleep well last night and I am feeling it today….forgot to take the allergy stuff so I couldn’t breathe too well and that had something to do with it….but, I was good last night so that should help today….really don’t have a lot to do today so I think I’ll take it a little easy and just clean some….more later…..

I told you so #2
Well….as I said before, this series is going to be about the things I predicted would happen if the idiot trump got elected that most people said “he’ll never do that”…well, guess what? He is doing real damage already and this is to document another one….today, the idiot reinstated the “gag rule” that states that any organization that takes funds from the US can’t talk about abortion at all..not as a family planning or women’s health issue…not at all…and you know what that means? The the idiot trump has just sentenced thousands of women to death across the world and did it with a big grin on his face….and the idiots out there thought there would be no consequences for not voting….geez…
January 23rd
Well…another wasted day yesterday…okay, I did get a few things done so maybe it wasn’t totally wasted….had a weird thing happen to the car yesterday…had a headlight bulb explode inside the housing….had to take it off and shake all the glass shards out….have never seen that before….that’s the second one that failed in a couple of months….and I got some stuff done around here yesterday that will have to continue today…need to run some errands this morning so I can get more work done around here…but, I’m not feeling it right now…it was nice to hear from T yesterday and I feel for her having to go back to work today….I do need to win the lottery so none of us will have to work anymore….okay…need more coffee…more later….
The resistance begins…
Well…I don’t feel alone anymore…after watching the people across the country coming out in record numbers to protest against trump and his cronies, I know that there are enough people out there like me that all is not lost…the latest estimates are that almost 4 million people protested in the US, making it the largest protest in US history…bigger even than those for the Vietnam war by a large margin and I hope this puts the repubs on notice that they have to pay attention to us…that they will not be able to just do what they want and the protest showed that a large group in this country knows the trump is an illegitimate president and has no mandate to do anything…and the protest across the world shows that everyone knows that trump is an idiot and is only in power by illegal means…I hope it keeps up and we can show that all of us didn’t vote for the idiot in chief….geez…
January 22nd
Well…yesterday was a day that I needed to break out of the malaise that I have been feeling lately…I mean, how can you not grin when it is 62 in January in Michigan? I did get out on the bike in a t-shirt and shorts for a long ride yesterday..but today doesn’t look promising…may have to have a half thermasuit but that will be okay, too…or I may go full and get out early….I do like riding in the fog….I have been almost successful in keeping my weight down this winter but I still have gained over 5 pounds….and I hate that…but, I guess all I can do is keep trying….don’t have a lot to do today…the Wing play around noon so I will have to get out on the bike before then…and I should clean some but probably won’t…just not into that right now….more later….
I told you so #1
Well…have been thinking about a new series here that will document every time trump and his minions screw over the people who voted for them and I think that “I told you so” is a great title for it. So, let’s start this one off with the first thing that trump did after getting sworn in…reversing the interest rate relief for all people who have FHA loans…that generally go to people who are middle class or poor…and guess what? He just raised your taxes by $500 dollars for each one of these loans…so to all of you idiots who believed the lies that he was going to protect you…I told you so….
Shame on you Brad K. and Clint B.
Well….after seeing both Brad Keselowski and Clint Boyer singing trump’s praises on twitter and responding to them there….this afternoon I feel it still isn’t enough to just tweet them….I needed to have more than 140 characters to respond. First to Clint, I know you have a young son…can you really point to trump and say to your son “I admire this man and want you to be like him”? And Brad, it’s even worse for you…you have a young daughter and you admire a serial sexual assaulter that thinks it’s perfectly okay? I thought you two were pretty good guys but with this trump support I can see that you are not and do not deserve my support or for me to support your sponsors….and I hope that you have this trump love pinned on you every day for the rest of you careers….geez…
January 21st
Well…didn’t sleep well again last night and I’m not sure what that is about…but, I do know that I feel worn out this morning and need to get things done today…okay, I should get things done today but nothing that can’t wait…oh, I did win at pool yesterday and had fun doing it….haven’t checked the Mega tickets yet since I want the possibility of winning to last longer….will do that later today….didn’t get anything else done yesterday but I am going to try to do something today…will be out on the bike in shorts today and I am looking forward to that….riding in full thermasuit is more of a chore than I like….okay, I need to have more coffee and watch some soccer…more later….
A half hour away from the theft of our country…
Well….we are now a half hour away from the theft of our country by collusion between trump, the FBI, and Russia and I refuse to watch any of it…I have spent the day so far running errands, getting some work done around here, and shooting pool later but I refuse to participate in any manner in this illegitimate regime….and I hope those of us of the truthful, progressive mindset do the same…I grieve for this country right now….
January 20th
Well…woke up to the sun in my face and that quickly told me I slept in way too late….and the reason is I went out to have a couple with G last night…after she told me that the Mexican place was evacuated for a fire…hope it wasn’t too serious since I like the place…didn’t get anything done yesterday and today looks the same…although I do have to go to fedex to send a piece of equipment back to get a new one….and I really don’t feel like it but need to do it….slept pretty crappy last night and feel it today so I need more coffee and the couch for a while…more later…
