Crap…

Well…my back is back to as bad as it’s been since it started to hurt and that sucks…I even had to take some ibuprofen since the pain was so breathtaking…literally…it has gotten a bit better after the heat and ibuprofen kicked in but it still hurts to move so I’m kind of done for the day after doing the laundry and putting it away….I do have a problem with my clothes dryer that I noticed a couple of weeks ago in that the thing doesn’t shut off on it’s own anymore…I think the timer is going bad, or has gone bad but I don’t know if I want to spend a hundred bucks to buy a new one with the dryer still usable…but that means I can only do laundry while I’m here…I’ve only done it while I’m here anyway but that takes away the option if I’m going to be gone more than an hour…oh, well…I can live with it…so I guess it’s no big deal…

Poor babies….

Well…as I sit here with a seized up back that has me heating it again, I thought I’d do a little comment on the whining that the idiot trump’s former staff was doing during their testimony to the January 6th committee starting with Hope Hicks who cried that she would never get another job in DC…and this was a pretty common theme for others, too…and all I have to say is good! After seeing felonies being committed for 4 years and not saying a damn thing about it, how the hell could anyone trust them? It was and is their duty to report the illegal crap that was going on every damn day that idiot boy was squatting in the WH and that they didn’t says a hell of a lot about them…they knew he was plotting the January 6th attack and the overthrowing of the legally elected government and not one of these whiners said a thing….not one of them resigned until after the attack when they could have prevented it by just going public with idiot boy’s plans but not one of them did…so if none of them ever work again is not enough punishment for them….some of them should be in jail…geez…

January 2nd

Well…running a bit late this morning with not getting out of bed til 7:23…I did wake up about two hours before that and tried to go back to sleep but had the weirdest thing happen…I did sleep and dream for these short, couple of minute dreams that went all over the place…..and they all changed as I woke up again and again….just looked outside and there is pretty dense fog out there and I just may try to ride in it today…but it’s only 37 out there and I don’t want to be that cold…so I guess I’ll start the day downstairs and then go outside later in the day to get my two rides in….didn’t do much yesterday and don’t feel like doing anything right now and I don’t know when I will….going to start getting the stuff I need ready to work on the house again but I guess that could wait til tomorrow…I need more coffee to even start to think about that….I did get my bills set up to be paid yesterday so I guess that’s something and I may have to go out and do the grocery run tomorrow since I’m running out of milk….and I’m not buying any protein this week so I don’t have to wait til Wed….I did get the turkey carcass in the freezer yesterday but that took up the last space I have in there so I have to use up some stuff from there….took out some chicken and another container of ham soup so I’ll have food for the next few days….not much to do today….I think it’s going to take a while for me to start the day with how I’m feeling….so I think I’ll read a bit and then get on the bike….darn, my back hurts….more later…

Elon sets a record…

Well…with the cratering of Tesla stock and all of his other stupid financial moves, ole elon has set a record that I’m sure he never wanted to….he is the first person in the history of the world to lose over 200 billion dollars…yep, he’s lost half of his fortune since he bought twitter and with all of the shenanigans there expose him as being a lousy businessman and right wing troll, the sales of teslas is cratering along with the stock price and even the price of used teslas is falling like a rock as his yes men at twitter go about ruining it. So, can we just admit that when you start out with 400 million dollars in inheritance and make some money from it, it doesn’t make you a genius or even a good person…it just makes you appear to be an insufferable asshole with how you treat the people around you…I hope he goes broke….geez…

January 1st

Well…another year starts and I’m not sure how I feel about that…I mean it’s nice that I’m still alive but life seems like a lot of work these days….especially when you wake up at 3, 5, and then out of bed at 6:23….I did drag my butt out to get a paper this morning and I wonder why…not much point to it anymore with how small it has gotten…you know it’s a sinking feeling when you get up and realize that you didn’t set the coffee maker up to start at 6 like normal…had an okay NYE last night and don’t feel too bad right now…and knowing that I don’t have to get on the bike helps that…going to sit here and just read the news for a while and try to get back into my routine….riding outside and then back inside has really set my back off and it hurts to just sit here right now so I guess I’ll have to heat it again and that sucks….didn’t really do anything yesterday but get two rides in and today will be even lazier with no rides and just vegging most of the day…there are soccer matches and the Lions losing to see and I will be on the couch most of the day…need to figure out what to eat today with the turkey finished and just soup in the fridge and I’ll have to plan for food the rest of the week but don’t want to right now…just need more coffee and down time to get the day started….more later…
