Well…I finally broke through the malaise and got some cleaning done today and that’s a relief…have been a slug for way too long and I’ll try to keep that up tomorrow with doing the bathroom and taking the rest of the tiles down from the dropped ceiling….I did cook some today, too but I think I ate too much…a chicken thigh and tiny drumstick with 8 asparagus spears for lunch, and a burger with two spoons of potato salad for dinner…full completely full…stuffed actually so I’ll have to do better tomorrow…maybe one meal…just noticed that I can hear the big V-8 powered boats on Muskegon Lake from my house and that’s kind of cool…it looks like a Svengoolie night for entertainment tonight sine he has a movie on I don’t think I’ve seen….
More charges for trump?
Well…read the good news that the grand jury in DC is still in session and is considering stolen document charges since some of the thefts occurred in DC….and that gets away from the idiot trump’s pet judge who is going to run the Florida case…and the article even said that quite a few more people are in the sights of Jack Smith in Florida as well….they also said they are looking at charging in New Jersey since they have a tape of idiot boy showing documents to an aide and a writer who was working on the Mark Meadows book…I wonder how many more felonies the idiot is going to be charged with…oh, and some moron writing for the Washington Post a few days back in an opinion piece put forth the idea that Biden should pardon trump to “heal” the nation…nope, nope, and nope…and let’s do a double nope…this criminal needs to be held accountable as Nixon should have been…that’s what got us here in the first place….geez…
June 17th
Well…damn, I thought I’d lost my sense of smell this morning since I didn’t smell the coffee when getting out of bed at 6:30 but I just forgot to hit the timer button on the coffee maker…still can’t taste it much but I need the caffeine to work so I can get out on the bike by 8…too damn cold right now at 50 degrees and I am so damn tired of the cold…the heat didn’t come on yet but I think it will if it doesn’t warm up soon…didn’t get much done yesterday but I do need to clean today…want to get the kitchen floor done before F1 qualifying at 4 and I have some chicken and Italian sausage to grill today and want to do that for lunch…going to have to call the cops again today if the idiots who bought their kid a mini bike send him out on the street again to run up and down the street all day….8 or 9 year old just flying the thing and almost hit a car more than once…who the hell does that…sounds like child endangerment to me and I’ll probably be on the phone in the next hour or so….not much to do today…just cleaning and cooking and taking care of the garden that is dying….oh, well…more later…
Lazy day…
Well…took a day off today other than riding the bike twice this morning and I need to get out of that habit…I do have work to do especially cleaning that I could be doing do tomorrow is going to be clean the kitchen day since it really could use it…and the bathroom could use a once over along with the living room needs dusting so I will need to show some discipline and get some things done….I am waiting for a call back from the cops since there has been an 8-9 year old kid blasting a minbike up and down the street all day and I really think he is going to get killed with how he’s driving the thing…and it’s damn annoying to have him go past my house 4 times a minute…has been going on since 2 this afternoon and I’m not going to listen to that crap all summer…who the hell buys an 8 year old a minibike and set him loose on busy city streets? Geez…
17 tapes…
Well…you are going to hear a lot coming out of the right about the magic 17 tapes that they lie show that Joe and Hunter Biden took bribes from somebody somewhere in Ukraine…never mind that no one has heard the tapes or knows who has them and the oligarch who supposedly paid the bribes has been missing for 3 years but that doesn’t matter to the idiots on the right…as it doesn’t matter that these rumors started by rudy giuliani have been totally investigated by Ukraine and the FBI and not one bit of it is true…the right thinks that because all them are corrupt fools that Joe has to be, too…it just another case of repub projection when they accuse everyone else of doing the thing we find out later that the repubs did….so, if you hear anything about 17 tapes, it’s all just a pack of lies and don’t waste your time listening to it…geez…
June 16th
Well…running a bit late today with not getting up til 6:40 and I’m wondering what would happen if I decided to not get on the bike today? I know I won’t but it would be nice to just do whatever I want for just one day….had an okay day yesterday and got some work done on the spare room but I think I’m going a different direction in there…the previous owners put some kind of fibrous paneling over the plaster on the ceiling that would be a pain to take down so I may just buy new inserts for the dropped ceiling and leave it in there….we’ll see…I did get the overhead light re-mounted to the ceiling yesterday and I’ll take the last panels out today…after the bike rides….my daughter sent me a couple of pairs of what would be called sweat pants but they are too nice for that…made out of stretchy material that look stylish….I wonder if she doesn’t want me traveling in jeans? Can get on the bike as soon as I have my coffee since it’s in the 50’s right now and I want to get it done as soon as I can….need to make potato salad this morning and cook some chicken on the grill later but I really have no motivation right now….just so damn worn out that I hope the coffee works soon….not much to do today…going to drag myself out here in a while to get started on the day…but more coffee is essential to make that happen…more later…
Ronnie, you’re done…
Well…as you know, ron desantis, the governor of Florida has announced he’s running for president for some reason but the latest polls that came out today basically say that everyone hates him…and only 34% of the people in Florida approve of the job he’s doing….and very few of them even want him to run…so how is he going to muster up the support to beat anyone in the primary, let alone the general election? He’s not…it’s that simple…just another delusional repub thinking that all you have to do is hate the right people the right amount and everyone will just ignore how badly he and his cronies have screwed up Florida…yeah, that’s not going to happen…and his stiff, wooden demeanor and thin skin are going to reveal the true ronnie…and no one wants that…geez…
Well, crap…
Well…crap…one of the people I read since I joined Daily Kos many years ago died last night…when I started following him his Kos handle was BFSkinner and he changed it to CameronProf a few years back and I don’t remember why that was…his life was filled with health problems that he unflinchingly shared with us but he never once cried about it…that was just his life and he stoically went about it and kept moving forward through trials that would have stopped most people….he always tried to engage people with questions about music, art and life and damn, I’m going to miss him…RIP BF…
June 15th
Well…man, I feel really worn out after the work day yesterday and I wonder if it’s from getting old? My back still hurts from the yard work but it’s not quite as severe as it was last night so I’ll take it…up at 6:04 this morning but laid in bed til after 6:30 and I’m still forcing myself to get out of bed when I don’t need to and I’m not sure why….it still feels wrong to relax and after all this time it shouldn’t…after all, I worked my butt off yesterday so I would think I’ve earned an easy day…I would really like to buy a steak to grill for my birthday but damn, at 20 bucks for a ribeye? That just isn’t going to happen…and I won’t be able to eat it anyway with the periodontist work I’m having done before it…oh, well…not going to get the big ride in this week so it will have to happen next week….need to carbo load before it and I don’t see that happening until the weekend….it looks like the ind is going to pick up later this morning since there is a “beach hazard” warning up today for big waves and rip tides but the water is not warm enough to swim so that’s kind of moot…not much to do today…it’s warm enough to get on the bike right now but it’s sprinkling so I’ll wait a bit…need to get the ingredients for potato salad done but just don’t feel like it right now…more later…
Another busy day…
Well…damn, I don’t know why I keep doing this to myself…go the day started at 8am with the first ride…back here for 5 minutes and then back on the bike for the second ride…and when I got back here I changed clothes and went out to take the string trimmer to the yard and that was the only thing I was going to do…but, the yard needed mowing since there are parts of it in the shade where it is still growing and looked like hell so I mowed the whole thing…and while I was doing that I noticed that the branches on the mulberry tree were only about two feet off the ground with all of the heavy berries on them and I had to push them aside to mow…so I got the clippers out and trimmed all of them up so I can walk under them again….didn’t get done until about 2:30 and then I had to prep some food and grill some burgers for dinner…and now it’s 5:30 and I can finally take a break…some damn animal attacked my garden and at most of my broccoli and then it got fungus in everything today so I give up…too damn much work…at least I still have carrots….
