Well…that didn’t take long…the jury came back in what was about an hour to find the idiot boy guilty of defamation and battery of E.Jean Carroll…don’t have many details yet but I did want to get this out there…back later with more
Okay…Carroll got a 5 million dollar payout that idiot boy has to pay…still waiting for someone to write about idiot boy’s meltdown so I can relay that, too….more later…
Well…it’s been another busy days so I’m late coming here…but I did want to do a short one on the latest trump trial…today is going to be the start of jury deliberations in the E. Jean Carroll case that has been going on for the past few weeks…you know the one where she charges that idiot boy raped her in a dressing room at a department store back in the 90′s…the thing to remember is that idiot boy’s lawyer didn’t call one witness to refute what Carroll had to say as her lawyer put on witnesses who said trump did the same thing to them…it sounds to me that finally, idiot boy is going to pay for his bullshit…literally, and I hope it costs him lots of money…and then we call all call him what he is…a rapist…geez…
Well…up at 4 and then out of bed a little after 6 today and I’m feeling worn out today….it’s going to be a busy day today with getting two rides in and edging the sidewalks along with mowing the lawn…not really looking forward to all the work…cripes, it’s only 44 out there so the rides are going to wait a couple of hours til it gets over 50 so what the heck do I do til then? It appears that the tomato plants survived overnight with the rain and I still have over 30 of them downstairs that need to be planted and I have been thinking of mixing them in with the flowers at the back of the house like I had last year…not going to throw them away after I plant the garden…it has been a struggle to get things going this year and having them survive is not a given….but the trial end of the garden is sprouting and I can’t wait to see what it is going to look like…I need a day off…even being retired, I still can’t just waste a day doing nothing and I think that needs to change….it would be luxurious to just watch movies all day and do what I want….but, I won’t….not much to do today…yeah, that’s not true…once the day gets rolling it’s going to be busy and I see the heating pad being necessary….getting old is hard work…more later…
Well…finally got some work done today when I heard the string trimmer calling my name…hadn’t had it out this year and the yard was looking pretty shaggy so just before it started to rain hard I dug it out, changed the edger out for the trimmer attachment and got to work…tried to start it about 20 times and couldn’t figure out why it wouldn’t start until I remembered that you have to turn the ignition switch to on…one pull and it was running and I got almost the entire yard done before I had to put some more string in it…and that’s easy to do so no big deal…I needed to break the yard work up to keep from hurting myself but it only half worked…my right side hurt like I’ve strained it so I’ll put heat on it later after I get ready to take it easy for the night…but, I’m not there yet…I was going to plant the peppers and beans today but the rain looked like it was going to be pretty heavy so I thought I’d wait a day and do that tomorrow…fingers crossed that the tomatoes I’ve planted will survive the rain…
Well…with the repub morons intent on crashing the economy unless Joe Biden pays the ransom of cutting everything that normal Americans depend on to live, I have just one thing to say to Joe: just pay the bills and ignore the repubs…you have it written right into the 14th amendment that the US WILL pay it’s bills…it doesn’t say you have to say pretty please to the hostage takers…and the debt ceiling is just a construct…it’s not in the constitution anywhere…it’s just an accounting mirage that is a courtesy, not a law…and the repubs raised it 4 times during the idiot trump’s term with no hostage taking and no cuts to anything…so, Joe, just ignore them and pay the bills and then let’s let the SC tell us that the plain language of the amendment is not what it is…and they will…geez…
Well…running a bit late this morning with not getting out of bed til 7…only woke up once at 4 so I think I can consider that a good night…need to get moving here in a half hour or so to get two rides in before the rain comes in this afternoon…might plant some beans and peppers before that since it’s not supposed to storm and I need to get that done…I was looking forward to having a day off yesterday but it didn’t happen…the storms that were forecast didn’t happen and I should be used to that by now…I have a green pepper in the fridge that I am going to strip the seeds out of and plant…could use as many green peppers as I can get since none of them survived last year….didn’t get much done but planting the tomatoes yesterday and today will probably be much the same…there is soccer on today but I really don’t care much about it with Man U losing yesterday…damn they have been stinking up the place lately…have been treating a plantar wart on my left foot and the band aid I put on it let me walk without pain for the first time in quite a while…damn, I hate getting old….not much to do today…I am bone tired today and should rest but you know I won’t….going to drag myself out and get going soon…but I’m not sure if I’m going to like it….more later…
Well…I notice something shaving this morning and getting ready to shower after the bike rides…for the first time since I was in my 20′s I can see my collar bones with all of the weight I’ve lost…and that is really strange for me…one bad thing I saw was that I am starting to get deep lines on my face as I lose weight, too…and now I really do look my age I think…oh, well…I did get some plants planted today with putting 8 tomato plants in and some others, too…have lots of stuff coming up in the trial end of the garden where I’m putting in stuff that I’ve never grown before but I forgot to do a map of it so I’m just going to have to wait to see what is where…and that will be fun…and I planted a potato that has sprouted and I have another one to cut up….need to go out and put cups over the tomatoes since it may storm tonight….
Well…I sometimes comment on other countries even though ours is quickly becoming a war zone with daily deadly shootings but that is not what this is about..I wanted to talk about the 150 million pounds that the British government spent on king chuck’s coronation over the past week…and that dovetails nicely where I read that the UK has over 2500 food pantries in a country half the size of Michigan where almost 50% of of the population goes since they can’t afford enough food after the stupidity of brexit and the ruling tory party (or conservatives) doesn’t care that their people are starving and losing their homes…so I have a suggestion…since king chuck is worth billions, do you think he might match the taxpayer money spent on his stupid coronation and help people be able to eat…150 million pounds would buy a lot of food…now I get a lot of news on Mastodon from the UK and it’s heartbreaking to read of people my age who have had to give up their pets since they can’t afford to feed and take care of them anymore…no wonder the liberals and green party took almost a 1,000 local seats from the conservatives in the election last week…just like here in the states, you can’t trust any conservative to care about people…just stealing everything that is not nailed down…and sometimes they even steal the nails….geez…
Well…that was better…slept through most of the night and didn’t get out of bed til 6:21…had some dreams that blew away before I could remember them as I normally can…I wonder if I’m going to have to suffer a night of bad sleep before I can have a good one? Seems to be the pattern right now and it’s wearing on me….had an okay day but my first wet one on the bike and that was not pleasant…the wind has been crazy out here…okay, no…it’s been normal from my experience…it always blows like crazy out here….but it appears to have moderated some overnight..we were supposed to get storms all night and all day today but the radar says otherwise and I may even be able to get out on the bike today…don’t know if I should…could use a day off but do need to make up for the week off that is coming up after the next biopsy on the 22nd….have to figure out meals for the next few days and get something out of the freezer…had a pork chop and two soft tacos yesterday and that left me under 1K calories for the day and I’ll take that…have a damn plantar wart on my left foot that is making it painful to walk that I am treating with some wart remover and hope I don’t have to have it burned off like the last time…not much to do today…was really looking forward to a day off today and to be forced to rest but the storms are doing what they seem to do a lot…splitting Muskegon and going to the north and south….but I’m going to ease into it with more coffee and some soccer…more later….
Well…when today started, I had a lot of plans that involved two rides and replanting the garden but that went all to hell after the first ride…it was brutal and cold coming back into a 20 mph wind and it took me hours to warm back up again…and now I sit here sweating…and it’s been raining off and on since I did the first ride at 7:15 to miss the first wave…so now I wait…have decided to wait on the garden until Tuesday with thunderstorms forecast for tonight, tomorrow, and Monday and I want to give these plants a chance to acclimate before they get pounded…damn, I am no good at waiting, that’s for sure…a wasted day to me that I could be accomplishing things if the weather would cooperate…okay, deep breaths…nothing I can do about that but wait….crap…oh, well…here’s the weird thing…it’s raining and my back windows are wet but it’s not raining hard enough to wet anything else hardly…at least it’s over 60 out here…much better than the 54 when I went out early…
