November 6th

Well…have spent the morning resetting all the clocks here…and I haven’t even gotten to the one in the car that I lost the instructions for…so that one will be trial and error….the tire on the car is still up so I don’t feel bad that I am going to wait until tomorrow to fix it…I do have to run an errand this aft so I will have to check it and make sure that it is okay with having an e-way run…I did get a few things done yesterday and today will be the kitchen’s turn since I have corpses of those damn little gnats everywhere….and I had the chicken brine bag unzip and spill rosemary and salt water all over the fridge so that will have to be done, too….I am roasting a whole chicken today with mashed potatoes and I am looking for ward to having something different than the thighs that I normally have…..okay…going back to the couch to finish my coffee and watch some soccer as I wait for the temp to come up to get on the bike…more later….

Who’s the criminal?

Well…with the idiot Trump continuing to whip his crowds up with chants of “lock her up”, it’s time to really look at who is the criminal here. Over the past 25 years, the repubs have spent over 100 million dollars “investigating” the Clintons…and guess what? While the right breathlessly repeats that Hillary is under investigation, none of them have found any criminal wrongdoing by her. On the other side, the idiot Donald is going on trial for fraud on Monday…the first of many trials related to him ripping off the students at his Trump U…and just yesterday, the NLRB has found that he is breaking the law by refusing to bargain with unionized workers at his Las Vegas hotel. And yet, working class people are overwhelmingly supporting him no matter that his policies would drive them even deeper into poverty if he is elected. So, who’s the criminal here? It sure isn’t Hillary…geez…

November 5th

Well….had a little problem with the car yesterday with running over a screw and puncturing one of the rear tires….I just could not believe how bad the car handled with just a soft tire…it really felt like something had broken in the rear…just evil handling…but, I had the stuff necessary to fix it and it is still up this morning so I guess I’ll wait until Monday to take it off and plug it….just don’t feel like fixing it today…oh, I did win at pool yesterday and if was nice to get out for a change…and the run back with the tire fixed with the top down was fun…still feel a little crappy today and the bug is still here….so, today is going to be a slow one after the bike ride…have to remember to fall back tonight since daylight savings time is ending and that will put me out on the bike even later…could go out right now if it was light since it is warm enough but it is still dark so I won’t….not going to do a lot today…might do my kitchen but still don’t have a lot of energy so maybe not…more later…

November 4th

Well…woke up this morning thinking it was Saturday for some reason…and I thought I was feeling better but have had a relapse…but, it’s just like every other bug…I feel better then worse, then better and that appears to be the pattern here…I did make some cash yesterday…finally….and that added to the 9 bucks I had in my pocket….and I had a nice lunch with T for her birthday that was fun…put the top down on the car all day, too, so that added to the fun….I do need to wash it soon so maybe today….I did wake up to a pleasant surprise this morning finding 5 pounds of venison burger on my door knob…I had cleared out my freezer with not having a lot of cash so this restock will come in handy….venison tacos next week….with running most of the day yesterday, I didn’t get a lot done and today looks the same with pool later and still not feeling right…I do feel much better than Monday so I guess I shouldn’t bitch too much….more later…

This is why the FBI needs to be reformed…

Well…if it wasn’t bad enough that the FBI director tried to swing the election to Trump last week with a breathless letter to congress that said there were new e-mails to be looked at from Hillary’s server…never mind that they were not sent to nor from Hillary…he still had to try to help his guy Trump…now we find that the investigation into the Clinton Foundation was not based on anything but a book written by a noted Clinton hater that was pulled by the publisher since it was full of provable lies. But, that it was against the Clintons was enough for the FBI to spend millions of dollars investigating the right wing propaganda from the book. Now, this is a pattern of the people in the FBI and the director using the agency to forward their right wing views when it is supposed to be a neutral fact finding institution…and that is enough to reform the organization from top to bottom to weed out the people who are, on a daily basis, letting their political views and their Clinton derangement syndrome color and delegitimatize the entire organization….something needs to be done…and no more “internal investigations” that are just CYA…geez….

November 3rd

Well…I think I may be feeling a little better today…at least I slept some last night and that helps…still coughing, though, and I was sweating like crazy just doing the grocery shopping so maybe I shouldn’t jump the gun….did get out on the bike yesterday and that felt pretty good and it looks like I’ll be getting out again in a few minutes but no t-shirt this morning…I did take the day off and didn’t do any work…and today looks the same with having lunch with T for her birthday….wanted to buy today but haven’t made any cash in 6 weeks or so I need to conserve cash after having to use the debit card for groceries today….haven’t even driven the car enough to have to put gas in it in two weeks…and still have a full tank….okay…need to get back to the news before the bike ride so I’ll end here…more later….

There’s only one candidate going to trial…

Well…with all of the rhetoric from the idiot Trump saying that Hillary is a criminal and should be in jail, let’s just remember that there is only one candidate who is going to trial for actual crimes….in late November, ole Trump is going on trial for felony fraud in regard to his scam “Trump university” and the thousands of people he defrauded…and this is not speculation, this is not hyperbole…this is a real crime committed by this candidate…and I just don’t know why the media has been so in the tank for Trump on this issue…a felon, trying to get elected to the presidency…that’s the story that should be written…not some innuendo about a few e-mails…geez…

Rudy Giuliani is a racist…

Well…despite his protestations that he wasn’t going to “politicize” the killings of two police officers in DesMoines…ole Rudy went on to do just that…comparing these killing to those that happened after Eric Garner was murdered in NYC…and the dog whistle of law and order was there along with the assumption by this ass (without any evidence) that the killer was a black man. Well…guess what Rudy? It was a white guy who has been seen breaking into sporting events carrying a confederate flag and generally being an asshole…hmmmm…I wonder who he supports for president….yeah, that’s an easy one..Trump signs all over his yard….and talk of armed revolution if Trump loses. You own this crap Trump…and Rudy….you have destroyed the small faith that people had in the institutions of government just for your petty aggrandizement….now, there are two officers dead because of it….did I hear an apology? Nope…didn’t think so…geez…

November 2nd

Well…yeah, didn’t come back for another one yesterday and now I know I have a bug and it’s not allergies…or maybe a combo? Oh, well….it was such a nice day yesterday with it being over 70 but today it’s going to rain so I think there will be no bike ride today…just sitting here has me sweating and that never happens with allergies….still didn’t sleep well…better than Monday but I still just want this crap to be over….I did get the bathroom dine yesterday and I should do the kitchen today but I probably won’t….I am really sore from coughing the past few days and the coughing is still here so that will go on, too….okay…tired of talking about how I feel so I’m going back to the couch to finish the coffee……more later….

November 1st

Well….still not feeling 100% today and that is really irritating…oh, well…and I didn’t sleep at all last night…didn’t get a lot done yesterday with feeling crappy and having no energy but I think I may be getting a little better….hope so, anyway….it looks like the bike ride will be in a t-shirt this morning with it being 57 already…..and the high is almost 70 for Nov 1st…I’m good with that after how last year got cold in October and it never warmed up until April….looks like it may be easy to get to Thanksgiving in shorts this year….don’t want to have to put the snowies on before December this year since they are almost worn out and I need to get this winter out of them….don’t have a lot to do today but the normal stuff so I won’t go into that today…more later…
