August 24th

Well…running really late this morning since the internet connection was down all morning and I forgot that my phone can double as a wifi hotspot…but it’s fixed now…it was just another normal day yesterday and I really didn’t accomplish much which I plan to change today…I have work to do here and then I have to get ready for one of my nephews wedding for later today…and I think I should wash the car for it but I probably won’t since it is going to storm tomorrow….but, right now I do need to get working so I’ll come back for more later….

August 23rd

Well…just another day yesterday and I’m running late again today since I just can’t get motivated…I do have to do the grocery run this morning and it is a task I’m not looking forward to….but, I need to do it so I better get going…I’ll be back later to add to this one…

Okay…have to do an update of my day starting with some weirdness at the coffee shop…an older woman came out of the shop and commented that she liked my car…then proceeded to strike up a conversation that lasted more than an hour…and I was a youngster to her…she was 78 and by the time we were done, I knew lots about her from her childhood to now…maybe it’s that I have one of those friendly type faces…this happens to me quite a bit and I don’t mind it a bit..after all, what else do I have to do? The second thing is that I just bought my first pair of new shoes in almost 5 years and for only 20 bucks…my old ones were really shabby and these are pretty cool…so I think I’ll smile the rest of the day…and maybe come back for one more…

August 22nd

Well…I don’t know how long I need to keep saying that it was just another day but it was….and nothing really happened so there is nothing to report…other than another night of no sleep and it is really starting to wear….and I feel like crap even with being good so I think it may be a bug of some kind..or I’m not eating enough again but that has gotten so old that I don’t even want to talk about it…not much to do today…I do have to get my hair cut for the wedding Friday but that will be about it…need to conserve cash for the Seattle trip so it looks like I’ll be in lockdown for the next two weeks…more later…

August 21st

Well….it was just another day yesterday but it was fun to go out and have a couple with G….but, the allergies are really killing me and I feel like crap…but I did have a short dream last night which was really surprising and included fishing and my grandparents cottage…oh, and a woman who tried to convince me that Audis are the best cars in the world…don’t know what that was about but it was nice to have any little dream…needless to say I will be taking it easy today and not doing much…I do have some errands to run and I need some more cream cheese for the bagels and salmon….I will be back later for more…

August 20th

Well…running late again and I just have not been able to get going…it was an okay day yesterday but I got wet coming home…had to stop on the street to put the top up but it was still fun….I think I won at pool but we won’t be going back to csb again…they raised their prices and I just can’t afford it…not much to do today…have to run some errands after coffee but that is about it…feeling kind of low today so I think that will be the theme for the day…Man U is playing this aft so I will have to see that…

One more thing, I was right on the Roy Schmidt debacle from a few months back…a State Police investigator here in Michigan says that both Schmidt and Bolger have conspired to commit perjury in their attempt to defraud the voters here in Michigan….now, I think our AG Schutte should stop chasing non-existent voter fraud and charge these criminals with the felony they deserve…

August 19th

Well….it was just another day yesterday where not much happened…I did drive the car with the top up today and it is so cool how quiet the car is with the new wheel bearing…it is actually quite pleasant….what a deal for 47 bucks….slept okay last night but no in-head movies and I am disappointed again….I do have something to do today with pool with Tom this aft and, of course, the bike ride in a few minutes and I should have another cup of coffee first but it just doesn’t taste that good today…..I think I will have a bagel and salmon before I get on the bike so I should get going on that…more later….

August 18th

Well…it was a fun day yesterday with smoking a bunch of fish out at Tom’s and eating a bunch of it…had more of the fish on a bagel with cream cheese this morning and that was just good…but, I do feel a little crappy after cocktails last night and I need to get out on the bike to help get the toxins out….the wheel bearing fix has quieted the car down so much all I hear now is the exhaust…and it was one of the easiest fixes I’ve had on any car….20 minutes from start to finish and I didn’t even get dirty…slept okay but no dreams for the 3rd week in a row and I am starting to get a little concerned…but not too concerned…have enough other stuff to be concerned about….more later…

August 17th

Well…another day yesterday and there really isn’t much to say about it….didn’t ride the bike with the rain and high winds but I needed a day off anyway so I don’t really feel guilty about it…tried to be good last night with some success so I’ll feel okay to work on the car today….I do need to get the salmon drying after being in the brine for two days so it won’t be wet when it goes in the smoker….so, I better get at it so I can get out to coffee…more later…

August 16th

Well… running late again today and I think I’ve figured it out…it’s the new phone…since I can get everything from the internet on it, I never even fire the computer up much anymore…but, I’ll try to do better…it was a normal day yesterday and I did get some small things done…I did get the salmon in the brines for Friday and I may have done a little too much with using both of them…but, has anyone ever complained they have too much smoked salmon? It can be frozen so that will take care of it…I do also have to do a small grocery run today and since Tom bought some Win Schulers, I have to have some too…more later…

August 15th

Well…it looks like I missed the life update yesterday and I can’t figure out how…so, I’ll have to do two of them today…it was a pretty good day yesterday…I won at pool but was not good when I got home so I am running late and feeling crappy today…Brian, who works here, just dropped of a bunch more salmon and his recipes for the brines you need for smoking…it will be fun to do that Friday when I replace the wheel bearing out at Tom’s….okay, need to get going and take a shower so I’ll stop here….more later….
