Bluntness

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

Bands

 We ended up getting a fairly large amount of rain from Henri, but not nearly what they received up in Connecticut, and Rhode Island, and New York. We got a lot of drizzle, wizzle soakers, and they got a long downpour.  Over the next 4 days things are supposed to warm up.  With all the moisture in the ground, that's going to translate into hot and humid days.  I am not excited.

I've started a core routine to my work out.  It's pretty much the same stuff I had when I was in PT for my back 6 years ago.  Breaking out the power bands I'd bought back then,  the 'light strength' green band  snapped the minute I gave it a trial stretch.  Everything ages.  Nothing lasts forever.  As we get older, weakening core muscles become a problem.  In 15 years I don't want to be walking around nearly stooped in half.  The older we get, the more we need to do to fight the aging process.


I had to take my car to the dealership because of recalls and for some reason they gave me 3 free months of Sirius XM.  I don't have a subscription. and thought this is a nice change to listening to the music I've bought and downloaded.  I might consider getting a subscription if they'd offer an Alternative Music channel without the DJ.  Having to listen to a babbling bubbled headed DJ is not what I want to listen to when driving my car.   Why anyone needs to have a radio personality chitter chattering away is beyond me, yet there are those listeners who practically live for their DJ.

I understand Loser #45 had a rally in Alabama over the weekend.  Before he launched into his medley of falsehoods leading up to his rendition of The Big Lie, he mutter something about getting vaccinated, and the MAGAs in the crowd booed.  Not that this bothered him, for 2 seconds later the crowd was cheering as the deceits began rolling from his lips.

  1. Oh, yes! Core exercises are super important. My Korean youtube gurus always include them. I have to be extra careful because I've thrown my back sneezing. True story.
    I did hear that Cheeto was somewhere doing something. They showed what appeared to be throngs of racists in red hats. A superspreader event, of course.
    And his lies seem less and less effective? IDK. He's not even trending on twitter anymore. Joy.

    XOXO

    1. My cousin did that to her back.

      Everything he touches rots and dies.

  2. You're right about needing to work on your core strength (not that you'd guess it from looking at me). But to be honest the thought of being doubled over spending most of my time looking at the ground as I get older is also what keeps me going. Well that and not wanting to ache anywhere either!

    1. I see a number of people shuffling around the store and looking down, and using carts for support. That is not a crowd I want to be part of.

  3. That is so true, what came naturally when we were young, we have to fight to maintain now.

    1. And, of course, there are no do-overs. We're all stuck with the body we've built.

  4. Poor man, his minions booed him, though of course he'll spin it that it was a cheer of approval,

  5. We had six months of free Sirius when we bought our Chevy in 1915. Enjoyed it but not enough to pay what they wanted. So we cancelled, then they offered 6 months for $29.95. So we took that, then cancelled when it was over. They repeated the offer regularly over the next couple of years until I got tired of having to remember to cancel, and dropped it.
