January 8th

Well…I did get a few things done yesterday and this place is shaping up…finally….but, I feel pretty crappy this morning with going out to have a couple with K and then cocktails last night…still not over the bug yet but it is a low level one that just takes my energy away….so today will be a low key one and I think I’ll just watch soccer…the FA cup games are on until this aft so that will be my morning….T left for the Bahamas yesterday and that is kind of a change for me….no texts for two weeks leaves a little hole in my life but I’ll live through it….both the Wings an Lions lost yesterday and that is getting to be normal…maybe the Wings will get a superstar draft pick from it….the Lions…nope, not going to talk about them…the last win in a playoff game in 1991? That’s all that needs to be said….okay…going back to the couch to watch soccer and have more coffee…more later…

January 7th

Well….crap…they shut the power off last night and I had to reset all the clocks in here….that’s not an excuse for being late this morning…just got up late…and I feel pretty crappy this morning…all my fault but I don’t feel bad about it…I think it’s strange that I had an equipment failure Thurs night but the damn thing is still working today so I am breathing a sigh of relief…can’t afford to replace anything right now….didn’t get anything done yesterday and today looks about the same but I think there is vacuuming to be done so I think I’ll do that later…but, after the rest of the Man U match…more later…

No pool today….

Well…I just remembered to come back here today since I don’t have an excuse not to…Tom is still feeling crappy so no pool today and, with overdoing it last night, that’s not a bad thing…..I was in the car all morning and it was so cold I never shut it off for 2 1/2 hours…but, I made some cash so that is cool…think I have enough stashed now to get through the end of February and that takes a load off….so, I think I’ll end here and watch a little Star Trek on BBC….

January 6th

Well…feel pretty crappy this morning with going out with G for a few and it being a cocktail night…and I had an equipment failure when I got home that was a pain in the butt but it appears to have fixed itself which will have me scratching my head all day today….it was actually fun hanging out with G last night and that was a relief…..I’m never sure how it’s going to go….didn’t eat enough yesterday and that is part of how I feel right now….I can fix that today if I can get motivated to cook but I’m not sure if I will or not…I do have an errand to run this morning and I am going to make a little cash so that is cool….I did get more cleaning done yesterday but today I won’t…just going to recover and go out for pool later…more later….

These are the bastards YOU elected…

Well…I slipped today and read a headline to an article that read: Tea Party giddy to repeal the ACA….

The first thing that came to mind is that these are the bastards that YOU people elected…anyone that can be giddy to take health insurance away from 30 million people who could never afford it before can only be described as bastards…and that these same bastards are now going to condemn millions of people to never getting health insurance again due to pre-existing conditions…and are going to condemn millions more to bankruptcy under crushing medical bills….but, these are the bastards YOU elected….enjoy going broke, idiots….

January 5th

Well….it was kind of a productive day yesterday with errands and the kitchen cleaning…and today I’ve already gotten the grocery run completed and it’s not even 8 yet….slept good again last night but tossed and turned all night and my bed looks like it…..not sore anywhere today and that is weird considering how I’ve felt lately….it looks like the bike is done until spring with the forecast I see for the next ten days or so…the snow will make the trails impassible for me so I guess I’ll just settle in for the winter…got up so late today that I didn’t even get my morning water in or the couch transition that I normally get…so, I am pouring the coffee in right now and think I still need to wake up…I did kind of sleep walk through the grocery run and I hope I got everything I had on the list…more later….

Oh, and Chelsea lost yesterday so that will make me smile today…

Finally….

Well…have been sitting here waiting for both my dish and the internet to come back on since they have been upgrading both of them all day….now, I can’t tell if they’ve done anything for the dish going out all the time but trying the internet, I have been able to run at 2 meg 720P which I haven’t been able to do regularly in many months…so, maybe that has helped…and, with both of them off, I have almost gotten my entire kitchen cleaned including taking a scrub brush to the floor and cleaning the stovetop and the cupboard doors….so, the place is looking better and tomorrow will be cleaning the washer and dryer to get them shiny again….I have had lots of energy today and I’m not sure why but I am not going to complain….hope it keeps up tomorrow….

January 4th

Well…woke up feeling pretty good today with much less coughing…right now…and hope that it is done….feel okay but had a damn spider in my bed last night that woke me up and I lost a good hour of sleep from it…oh, well….might even feel good enough today to get the kitchen floor cleaned and the rest of the stuff I have been putting off since Saturday….but, I won’t be running any errands today…well…maybe..since it is cold out there with wind gusts of 40 but I do want to get some cheap chicken from Aldi’s so maybe I will later…can’t ride the bike today but I can work out so that will be first on the agenda for the day…after coffee, that is…and I just poured the first cup so that will be a while….for some reason my hands hurt today and I think it may be from the double gloves on the bike…they hurt like crazy while I was riding and I had huge cramps the entire ride….more later….

I’m confused…again…

Well….after feeling halfway to death yesterday, I am so damn confused abut how I feel today….have had energy, got the car washed, worked out, got the bike ride in, and ran some errands and I feel okay…still coughing some but how many times does a cold or virus last only 3 days? The bike ride was even a good one without the brutal overtones of Sunday where it was pure torture with my lungs on fire….and, I made some cash today so that was cool…..the infection in my eyelid is even better but I have been treating that so maybe that is not such a big surprise….still have no desire to look outside and see the ruin that has started for this country but I am getting a little bit of curiosity when I talk to T and she asks me with incredulity if I have seen who the idiot Trump has picked for his government….maybe in another month or so after 30 million people lose their health insurance…..

January 3rd

Well…still feeling pretty crappy today with lots of coughing and fever….and I just can’t get warm so that will be a problem when I wash the car and ride the bike later….but, the car needs to be done before it gets cold tomorrow and later in the week and this will be the last day to ride for a week or so….had the damn phone dream again last night where it wouldn’t work to get vital information and then it just fell apart in my hands….at least I had a dream that I remember for the first time in a long tome….just laid low all day yesterday trying to get better but I think I’m on that plateau where you just feel crappy for a couple of days and then you go into the swings of feeling better and then worse for a couple of days…have been having a hard time eating since nothing appeals to me but I do need some fuel today so I need to figure something out….more later…
