Well…just as I talked about when the idiot trump started to tear up international agreements and tried to cut Ukraine off at the knees, the world has found that the “necessary ally” US is not really necessary after all…the world has found ways to get around idiot boy’s tariffs and every day there are more and more economic, military, and political agreements that we are not even invited to talk about anymore…and Ukraine has used real diplomacy (something that idiot boy has no idea what it even is) to strengthen it’s position as the idiot boy’s buddy putin looks weaker and weaker every day…and it’s all trump’s stupidity and bluster that has led us to where we are…where our standing in the world is more and more tied to the idiot and will take decades to repair if it even can be…this is what you’ve done repubs…what our enemies have been trying to do since the end of WWII and couldn’t, you have thrown it all away because you’re scared of the dementia riddled orange idiot…and we dems are going to have to come in again and clean up your mess…geez…
June 5th
Well…damn, stayed up til almost 11 last night but that didn’t help…up at 5am again and I’m quickly getting to the point that I need to try something else to sleep more…it looks like rain today but I’ve got til almost 10 to get the rides in…going to be lots of wind but it’s already warm enough to get out in shorts and a t-shirt…and we’ve got some almost 90 degree weather coming for the later in the weekend…about time…not as sore as I should be after all of the work yesterday and I won’t need an ibuprofen…yet…but I’ll wait for that until later…it’s going to be nice to be done for the day and then read while it’s raining this morning…need to figure out food for today…the avocados are not ready yet but I think I’ll make the chicken soft tacos anyway…still have the pickled red onions to have with it so that will be enough…I actually tasted the turkey dogs with homemade pickles yesterday and I think these are the best batch I’ve made in years…a cross between dill and sweet with lots of heat and I’ll have to make another batch next week…not much to do today…I do need to clean the kitchen and dining room and should tear the fridge apart and clean that, too but that will probably wait til Sunday…need to get the day started with more coffee and the weight work before I get on the bike in a half hour…more later…
Lots of stuff done…
Well…it was a pretty busy morning today that I kind of planned but not all of it…I started out with getting two rides in beginning at about 6:20am and by the time I was done with the 2nd, my legs were completely flat and I was struggling a bit…and when I got back here, I discovered that I had used up all the weed killer from the last application from a month ago and I really did want to feed the lawn with the rain that is coming tomorrow…so darn, I had to put the top down and make a run to menards to get what I needed…when I got back here, I pulled weeds in the lawn for an hour or so to get rid of the tree of heaven sprouts that we all through the lawn…and the bending over gave a good stretch to my hamstrings and even made my back feel better for a bit…after that I fed the lawn and hit it with weedkiller since the weeds were trying to take over even with the grass really stressed from no rain…then I treated the ant nests that were big enough to swallow my lawnmower and I was done…oh, after the rides, I cleaned up the trash that the idiots in the rental left on the street and in the vacant lot and poured it all on the front steps of that run down piece of crap so they would have to deal with it…I was done by 11:45 but that’s enough after getting started a little after 6am…so now it’s pushing 2pm and I’ve barley gotten any reading in but that is going to be the rest of my afternoon…
Nothing on paper…
Well…this is where we are now…the head of the justice department todd blanche has just said that he is not going to “put anything down on paper” about the fraudulent “pay the thugs” fund that he was instrumental with ramming through…and over 30 past judges have signed their names “on paper” saying that his actions are a “fraud on the court” and are grounds for disbarment…and he has to June 12th to explain how he set everything up where idiot boy was the defendant and plaintiff in a suit trying to keep it from having a court scrutinize the fraud…and that doesn’t even get to the “agreement” where blanche has tried to set it up so the IRS can never investigate idiot boy or his family ever…something that is so damn corrupt that it’s never been attempted by anyone before…so it looks like another trump lawyer is going down for being around the idiot…these people are so dumb they can’t understand that…bye, bye, todd….geez…
June 4th
Well…another day of getting up before 5am and I said I wasn’t going to talk about that anymore..so that’s it…but that else do I have to talk about? My life is pretty boring, after all…I do feel pretty good even after no sleeping last night so I’ll just go with that…and it’s 57 degrees out there right now so I can go out in shorts as soon as the sun comes up…but I need to get the weight work in before that happens in an hour…and I do need to have lots of coffee before that…today looks like yard work after the rides are done and I need to do the weed walk with the pump sprayer since I don’t have enough weed killer to use the hose…not sure if I’m going to mow the front today but I know I’m not mowing anything else since my lawn is dying and not growing much…I’ll be out on that by 9am and should be able to carve out some time to read today…I did make the homemade pickles late last evening so I’d have some to put on the turkey dogs I’m having today…going to have to wait to make the chicken tacos since the avocados are in a paper bag ripening and won’t be ready for a couple of days…so, I don’t know what the 2nd meal is going to be…maybe some quickie stir fry? It looks like we have rain in the forecast for a couple of days starting tonight and through Sat but I’ll believe it when I see it…the weather widget is saying an inch of rain Fri but that just makes me laugh…need to air up the tires on the bike before I ride since it’s been since I put the old wheel on on the rear of the bike and the tires do lose air over time….more later…
Great bike rides…
Well…to celebrate this International bike day, I got two great rides in today and really enjoyed them…I did get the grocery run in and have the ingredients for all kinds of dishes…chicken breast with asparagus that I already made for dinner today, and chicken soft tacos with pickled red onions and avocado, along with omelets and chicken stir fry…oh, and I have some uncured turkey dogs that will go well with the pickles I’m making tomorrow and the pickled onions…so I’ll be cooking a lot and I don’t know why since I still can’t taste anything…maybe it’s just habit? The new power pack I bought has tons of capacity and I’ve used it for a week to power the mp-3 player and the charge indicator still reads 100% so that’s cool…and when the charge starts to fall in the player, it automatically starts charging it so I don’t have to hit a button like I did on the old one…and only 10 bucks so that’s a deal…I did run across some people helping out a hatchling turtle today just like I do and I laughed and said to them: “so you do that, too?” They smiled and showed me a tiny green back they were moving…and I’m still getting all the smiles, waves, and good mornings I’ve been getting on the trail and it feels like the trail is our little community and that makes me smile,too…okay, need to find something to watch tonight…
This is perfectly normal…
Well…I really can’t believe the lengths the media going to protecting the country from the reality of how far the idiot trump has deteriorated…and this was shown in all it’s evil yesterday when idiot boy was returning to the WH from another trip to Walter Reed and when he got out of the car he stood there motionless for 6 full minutes staring at one of the pillars on the front of the WH…yep, he just stood there while his handlers didn’t know what to do…and it was all captured on video…I know his protectors are going to say he was studying the engineering of the column to make sure it was structurally sound or some such other nonsense but the truth is the idiot is no longer cognizant of where he is most of the time and is so much worse than Biden was when the media drummed him out of office…so where is the media attention now? The news is now owned by all of the idiot’s billionaire buddies who have a financial stake in keeping “weekend at Donnie’s” going as long as they can so they can keep stealing everything that is not tied down…geez…
June 3rd
Well…that was a mistake….had a cocktail that I nursed all night last night but I still feel like crap and didn’t sleep any better than I have been so I won’t do that again…I know I said I was not drinking to fix my eyesight so I could pass the test but it’s more than that…I just want to be healthy and can’t be having cocktails…so I’m done with that…I am looking forward to getting out on the bike this morning with getting it cleaned and lubed yesterday but it’s still pretty cold out there…it was supposed to stay 56 for a low but it’s down to 52 right now so I’ll be out in long pants by 6:30 to get the first ride in before the grocery run…going to hit DD this morning since they have black forest ham on sale for 1.98 a pound and, with the food inflation on everything these days, I can’t pass that up…and I have lots of meals planned for this week…stir fry chicken, chicken soft tacos, dogs and I’m making pickled red onions to go with it all as soon as I get back from the 2nd ride and oh, I have asparagus to go with some baked chicken that I’m making this afternoon…and I can make ham sandwiches if I need a fill in…oh, again…I have eggs so I’m making omelets with the green pepper I’m getting today…so lots of food but the only problem is I have to make it…like everything else, when you live alone you have to do everything and I’d like a rest for a change…more later…
What I said they should do…
Well…a few weeks back, I wrote one of these saying that dems should be shouting from the rooftops that anyone who is engaging in shady deals and corruption with and for the idiot trump will be hauled up in front of congress and will be subject to prosecution for these crimes…and now Senator John Ossoff from Georgia has said just that..taking about the corruption and bribes that being handed to idiot boy’s sons he said: Prince Eric and Don, here’s the bottom line, if any of you are involved in this, next year you will be raising your right hand and swearing to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth in front of congess”…this is what we can do to stop the worst corruption in the history of the country…promise them they are not going to get away with it and specifically show the public how corrupt they are…good on ya, Jon…geez…
That was pretty painless…
Well…got through the vision test at the SOS and I can see that my vision is worse than it used to be but I still passed easily…so no more stress and that feels good…I had a very friendly clerk who was funny and we had a good couple of laughs while getting things done…I will say that everyone at this office is really nice and it has been pleasant going in there…and I like the idea of setting up an appointment online and not having much of a wait when I get there…I do remember the cattle call days when I was younger that could take an hour or more but today I was walking back in my door here by 9:30 with a 9:10 appointment…so I’m grinning a bit and need to get back on the bike for ride two in a minute or so…and then I’m going to wash the car and bike when I get back…both are really dusty with not getting any rain here for 10 days or so…
