Well…once it was reported that a girls school was hit in Iran and over 160 girls killed, of course the idiot trump lied and said it was an Iranian missile that did the damage even though there are photos of the tomahawk that hit the school and Iran has no tomahawks…and just today reporting with pieces from the tomahawk came out of Iran proving that idiot boy was lying his ass off and he continues to do that today when the entire world knows it…and now, finally, the dems in the senate are going to use the tools they have been given by the war powers act to shut the senate down until there are hearings where all of the trump idiots will be called to testify about the war like who gave the order to start it, what the cost is, and how does it end? That needs to happen now since this war is illegal and has already cost over 200 billion dollars…dollars that could have been used to save medicaid and the rural hospitals that shut down over the cuts….geez…
March 10th
Well…another morning of getting up before 6 and I probably should stop talking about that…it’s pretty boring but it is part of my life that these are supposed to chronicle…the temp starts dropping today ending with a high of 25 on Sunday and I am so damn tired of the cold…it was a nice day yesterday but waiting for spring gets harder every year…oh, well…didn’t eat much yesterday and I’m still disappointed that I couldn’t get some reasonably priced corned beef to celebrate St. Patty’s day next Tuesday…I do have enough stuff in the freezer to substitute for it but it’s just not the same…I may do just potatoes and cabbage in the instant pot and then use them for sides for chicken or pork loin fillets…still have leftovers for today so I’ll think about what to cook tomorrow…not much to do today…I do have to wean myself off reading so much so I can get things done around here starting with my bedroom but we’ll see how that goes…more later…
Shouldn’t put the trash out…
Well…made a big mistake today when I put some trash out in the outdoor bin…okay, let’s back up a minute…after I got the indoor ride this morning, I suited up to get an outdoor ride in even though the wind was really blowing and it was only 42…so, I get to the point by the condos and got hit with a gust that literally stopped me dead…so I did what I very seldom do with my right thigh screaming, I gave up on the ride and came back here…then, this afternoon, I put the trash out in the outdoor bin and it was over 50 and the wind had abated a bit so I put my light thermasuit on with just my padded, fingerless riding gloves and a baseball cap and headed out…the wind was still blowing pretty hard but there was no way I was abandon two rides in one day so I gutted it out since I knew it would be fun coming back…and I flew back here after taking a minute to just relax at the water stop at Lake Michigan…and now I don’t have to feel guilty about being a slug…I did run an errand today and put the top on the car down and that was a lot of fun…but not getting the corned beef since aldi was already out of it…but I did buy a cabbage since I like steamed cabbage and I do have some pork loin fillets that will go with it okay…time to take my teeth out and clean them before I go back to reading…
He’s a war criminal…
Well…with the idiot trump’s bombing of a girls school in Iran that killed 162 young girls, there is no other way to say it but the idiot and all of the military going along with this crap are war criminals and should be on trial in the Hague instead of staining the WH…this moron has permanently destroyed any moral high ground the country had…and that wasn’t that high since the orange asshole settled his fat ass back in the WH…I think we are going to have to rethink our Italy trip that is set for September if this crap goes on…I am so ashamed to be an American…geez…
March 9th
Well…that was a little better…up at 4:10 but forced myself to go back to sleep until after 6 today and I needed that after the time change…and I’ve already had a bagel after only eating about 700 calories yesterday…need the fuel if I’m going to keep up the pace…with the easy day yesterday, I need to do everything today but I’m not sure if I’ll get outside for a ride with how the wind is howling today…want to run an errand with the top down on the car no matter how cold it is…it’s just time to get the third top down ride for the year before the temp plunges Wed and then we endure a week of 30’s…and even 20’s next week and that just sucks…didn’t get a lot done yesterday but I need to clean the kitchen today from top to bottom and then do some meal planning…going to see if I can get some corned beef at aldi even though it’s 3.50 a pound so I can make corned beef and cabbage in the instant pot later in the week and maybe some masala…I should be able to splurge a little and not just make cheap meals…have no room in the freezer for more DD stuff so I probably should not buy anything this week and just use what I have…more later…
Gave myself an easy day today…
Well….with 4 days in a row of doing 21 miles a day and weeks of weight work every day, I could feel the wear and tear piling up so I gave myself and easy day today with just doing an indoor ride and calling it good…and the wind is blowing over 25 out there so, after the crazy wind I rode in yesterday, there was no way I was doing it two days in a row after the pain it caused in my legs…and I’m even eating more to try to get my energy up some…and I really needed to remember that I needed to ride since I am working on 871 days in a row of getting at least one ride in…okay, going to read before the race comes on at 3:30…
Hiding terror alerts…
Well…with the idiot’s stupid war on Iran, the likelihood of US properties around the world has skyrocketed but you wouldn’t know that from idiot boy…3 of our intelligence agencies tried to put an alert out so people could make decisions about the risk…but no, idiot boy didn’t like that so for the first time in history the information was ordered to be withheld from the American people just because idiot boy didn’t want it known how big of a screw up this war is…and that the idiot was responsible for putting Americans across the world in harms way…and that even includes the possibility of attacks in the US…so I guess if you don’t know you’re in danger, the danger doesn’t exist in idiot boy’s head…when are the repubs going to do something about this asshole? It should have happened way before now…I would like to know if I’m going to be killed by terrorists…geez…
March 8th
Well…up at 4:14 this morning or is it 5:14? DST just screws me up for a few days and I’ll be doing the calculations of time for a while…so I’ll crash later and I hope I can take a nap…didn’t sleep well at all last night and I’m sitting here in kind of a daze that I hope will lift after I pour some coffee down…not as sore as I expected to be today and I can even move my left elbow without pain and that is weird after how much it hurt yesterday…not sure what the food is going to be today but I should make a pizza so I can use up the pepperoni and green pepper that I have in the fridge…this one is a 4 meat that I’ve never had before and it may be a bit much…but I guess we’ll see…damn, I’m already tired and can barely move…I probably should clean some today but I just need to get through the weight work and the indoor ride to get the day started…probably won’t do an outdoor ride today since I just need a rest…more later…
Way too windy…
Well…after the rain stopped this morning after dumping over an inch overnight, I decided to do an outdoor ride and I forgot to look to see how windy it was…so I get to the point with the condos, it blasts me in the face with 25 mph winds that were gusting to almost 40 that stopped me in my tracks and I almost turned around and came back here…but I didn’t and gutted the brutal conditions out…fog, mist, and wind was not fun going out…but coming back with the wind behind me was fun…I some damage to both hips into the wind and they both hurt and I am limping around here…since it was 52 when I went out I almost put shorts on but I’m glad I didn’t…I forgot that it is normally 10 degrees colder at the beach and I was freezing by the time I finished my water stop…and it’s only getting to 43 tomorrow so I may just take an easy day with just the indoor ride and for a little recovery time…now it’s race time and reading…
No planning…
Well…hey maga folks…how do you feel about electing the idiot trump now? Now that he has saddle the world with an “Iran war tax” by attacking Iran and causing oil prices to skyrocket…and that is going to cause everything else to increase in price, too…gas prices here are 65 cents higher than they were before idiot boy’s stupid war and it has been forecast that these price increases will add 1-2% to general inflation and that’s just to start…oh, and let’s add idiot boy’s stupid cancelling of wind and solar projects across the country so now the oil and gas price increases will be even worse since will will have to use this higher priced oil and gas instead of renewables…there was no planning when the toddler in chief and his cronies started this “gut feel” war and now we all have to pay for his stupidity for years…I never signed up for this crap…geez…
