Bluntness

I've also been told I have little tact, so if this offends you simply ride on.

Reality Checks

 Hello happy day before Christmas Eve!  I say that with good hearted jest.  You see, the first thought that went through my head when I woke up this morning was: damn, I have to go to work this afternoon.  Yep, I thought it was Christmas Eve.  It wasn't until I sat down my computer that I saw today was actually Friday, the 23.  I'm in really good spirits, now.

The Vet call last evening.  Biggie is not going on meds.  No hormone blockers.  He does have Cushing's but his symptoms are not severe enough to require medication.  Biggie, as if he had already known this, slept through the night without having to go potty outside.  While I have no problem spending the $$$ for treatment, $400 + every 3 months for bloodwork was mice.

As for the snow we had yesterday morning?  It's practically gone.  We a total accumulation of 3 inches.  I went out and shoveled because a delivery from Chewy was expected.  Then, around 1:30 PM, the rain began, and it's been raining ever since.  Had it been cold enough, this would have been one hellatious snow storm.  The cold doesn't arrive until later this morning, carried in by high winds gusting to 50 + miles per hour.  That's another reason why I'm glad I don't have to go to work this afternoon.

Yesterday there were quite a few individuals got reality checks.  Can you hear me laughing at them?

Matty Gaetz was shooting off angry retorts because many, many people were outraged that he and Bimbo Boebert sat through Zelenskyy's speech.  This is one of many images of the two sitting on their hands, or checking their phones.  Did they think they were making some sort of bizarre statement?


Even the conservative rag, Newsweek, published, with large headlines, the names of the seven congressmen who stayed sitting.

That Putin asset, Tucker Carlson, was gesticulating so wildly I felt certain he was having a conniption as he shrieked about Zelenskyy throwing a foreign flag on the dais.  Fox has a serious problem with Tucker in that he makes news because he rants, not because he makes points.  Ranting people are rarely taken seriously.

And then there's George Santos, a Republican from New York who lied extensively about... well, everything.  Let's see, he's not Jewish.  His grandparents didn't flee Hitler, they were born in Brazil.  He was married to a woman for some time.  He has not been openly gay for 10 years.  He never worked for Goldman-Sachs.  Shit, the list goes on and on.  George is having a serious reality check.  George says he will tell all next week.  Right.

Finally, the January 6 committee has released it's findings.   The Republican party is dealing with a very serious Reality Check, as well they should.

  1. I still can't believe those two Sat through that speech. What ignorance. I also saw on the news that Tucker Carson said of Zelinsky, that he was surprised he wasn't in a suit, he showed up in Army fatigues and said he basically look like a strip club owner asking for money. I can't stand that little fat runt.

    As for the strong gales were getting, I've already had to tie up my two little Christmas trees outside for the dogs ...they keep blowing over already, and my wig looks like hell from the wind!LMAO!!!!!

    1. Evidently Carlson doesn't know that Winston Churchill also showed up to address congress wearing the same attire. Sorry about the wig, I wear a cap to keep my head warm. 😎😎😎

  2. Santos needs to be removed from office.
    The Escort and the predator are pigs. I wish them one week in Ukraine and see if they stop flapping their Putin ass-kissing lips.

    1. I do believe the Democratic governor of the state gets to choose who will replace Santos once he resigns. The House majority keeps on shrinking.
