Well…as the idiot trump considers firing more of his incompetent cabinet (all women)…the visual comes to mind of that old cliche of “rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic” and then continue their delusion that his problems are all caused by the media just not getting how “amazing” he is…but he sure won’t fire Litnick who is all over the epstein files just as idiot boy is…look, it’s not a messaging or media thing…it’s a stupidity and incompetence thing…he had no plan for going to war with Iran and had just wishful thinking that bombing them for a couple of days would get him the “regime change” he wanted…the only problem is that his stupid attempt didn’t result in what he wanted since it was never going to happen…and that goes with his trying to bully the rest of the world to bail him out and they all said no…and he can’t sue to end the war, he can’t declare bankruptcy to end the war, or stiff creditors to end the war…and those are the only things he knows how to do…he created this mess all by himself and now he whines that no one sees the “awesomeness” of what he has done…hey, stupid, it’s because it’s not awesome to spend 200 billion dollars to be led around by netenyahu and kill thousands of innocent people…geez…
Saving the political stuff for later…
Well…Sitting here finishing up the coffee as I wait to head out for the dentist appointment at 9:15…feel pretty good this morning so I think I’m going to make this no cocktail thing last for at least a week just to see how much damage I’ve been doing to my body…already have a lot more energy and the indoor bike ride was an easy one…I’m hoping that cutting out the cocktails will let my sense of taste come back a little…I know my vision is better after only one night so that is enough incentive to keep it up for a while…and I’ll be losing weight without the extra calories so I can buy new clothes for the Italy trip…and I can spend the money I’m not spending on booze to update my wardrobe…okay, need to get ready for the dentist by doing a good job cleaning my teeth…more later…
March 6th
Well…up and moving again at 5am and I didn’t sleep too well but there is a reason for that…not sure what that is yet but I know I froze my butt off in bed all night and I wonder if the unrelenting cold out here has something to do with it…this is the coldest spring on record and today is going to be 20 degrees under the average high for April and it’s getting down to 21 degrees overnight and that just sucks…need to go out for a dentist appointment this morning and I’ll have to warm up the car since it’s only 32 here right now…last night was the first night of no cocktails and I feel pretty good this morning so I’m going to continue that for a while just to see what the effects are…can’t hurt…and it will save me some money…have the food all planned for this week and will be cooking the pork shoulder Thurs or Friday and that will keep me eating for another week can’t wait to make some pulled pork sandwiches and pour gravy over everything…not much to do today…going to be too damn cold to work on the lawnmower so I think I’ll just do one more hibernation day and do some reading after I get back here…more coffee first…
The easiest day….
Well…okay, it was probably the easiest day today since all I did was the weight work and one indoor ride and that meant I was done for the day before 8am…so all I did was read all day since there no races on…finished a book and I’m 3/4 through the next one but I still have 4 more to last until later in the week…only had one meal today but I am going to have a snack later of rosemary and olive oil wheat crackers with pastrami and swiss heated…need to heap a lot of flavor on with not being able to taste much…and it’s a no cocktail night with having a dentist appointment at 9:30 tomorrow to get my teeth cleaned…need more water and to watch some tv…
I think he’s a little stressed out…
Well…it’s being widely reported that the idiot trump went off on a profanity laced rant this morning since Iran is not doing anything he told them to and I think the stress of his stupid war is getting to him…man, he really can’t take anyone saying no to him like all of our NATO allies did this past week and Iran is doing right now by keeping the strait of Hormuz closed and attacking American bases every day to the point that most of them are uninhabitable…so what does the idiot do? Threatens to commit even more war crimes by attacking power plants an other civilian infrastructure…he better watch himself if he ever travels again…his fat ass is going to end up on trial in the Hague since no one is scared of him anymore…can you imagine what the repubs would have said if Obama had said what idiot boy did? But when their god king says it there is nothing but silence from all of them…geez…
March 5th
Well…up and out of bed before 5 today and I’ve bitched about that enough…think I slept okay but I know I’m going to be worn out later…it’s cold and windy here and it’s not going to get out of the 30’s and 40’s until Wed…so I think I’ll take an easy day today and just do the weights and one indoor ride…but before that I need to pour coffee down and attempt to get moving…don’t really have much to do today other than clean a bit and read…I did get through one book yesterday and I’ll start working on another one after the ride…but I need to remember to enjoy them…after all, it’s not a contest and there is no reward for getting them done fast…I do need to eat more today after just 2 pieces of pizza and a piece of ham yesterday…so I’ll start today with a bagel in a bit and then a full ham plate later…but that should be enough with only doing one ride…not much to do today…just need to get going and get started…more later…
It rained all day…
Well…it rained all day here to go with the all day rain yesterday and I still can’t believe how hard it stormed this morning when it was in the 30’s here…never did get out of the 40’s today when it was supposed to get into the 50’s…and the next three days are going to be cold with highs in the 30’s…ick…didn’t get much done today but I didn’t need to with getting all the work done yesterday…I did get out to get more books and I’m going to finish the one I started today here in a few minutes…I did run out to Meijers to see if I could get a pork shoulder on sale and they did have them so I’ll be cooking that in the instant pot later in the week…going to leave this one in for 90 minutes to see if I can get it to break down and leave enough juice so I can make gravy for the mashed potatoes and an au jus…but right now, it’s back to reading…
The whole world is laughing at him…
Well…it appears that the entire world is tired of the idiot trump screwing things up and everyone is laughing at him…and are openly mocking him and the stupid crap he says and does…the French, Germans, Australians, Canadians, and the UK have all weighed in on his toothless threats and stupidity for starting the war with Iran and his continuing economic damage to the entire world…it really does look like they are finding their voices and are no longer giving him the benefit of the doubt on anything…especially the NATO countries who just laughed at his threats to pull out of NATO when they know he can’t do it by himself…gee, I guess they know more about how our government works than the ignorant moron in the WH…really, anybody does since idiot boy knows nothing about anything…geez…
March 4th
Well…I really don’t understand where the energy comes from to power thunderstorms that are raging here when it’s only 40 degrees but it’s happening so there must be something…up and moving before 5:30 today but it’s a bit of a struggle just to get my brain working without coffee and I’m pouring it down but I don’t think I have enough to drag me into the day…I do need to get going since I need to hit the library for more books since they were closed yesterday and I finished up the last one in the afternoon…didn’t get much done yesterday but the painting and some light cleaning and I’ll probably do the same today…no painting since I went through the quart I bought already and now the wait begins to see if it will work on the spalling…no cooking today with the pizza leftovers and lots of ham left…I probably should run to Meijers when I’m out to see if I can get a pork shoulder to cook in the instant pot but I really don’t like going there on the weekend…I guess we’ll see…more later…
Another death…
Well…I guess this is to be expected as we age but it is still never easy to hear…my youngest sister messaged me today to say that one of my brothers in law died this week…he was in a nursing home with dementia and died from a massive stroke Wednesday…he was a good guy and they were married for 60 years…no obit or funeral so I guess I’ll just send good thoughts my sister’s way…
