Bluntness

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

Grey Tones

Yesterday was nice and sunny.  The temps were just right.  Then last evening the clouds rolled in and we had rain.  More is in the forecast for today.  Then, things are going to dry out. 

I also work today, but only for 6 hours and I don't need to be there until 12.  This is fine.  I've put together some Kettlebell exercises which I'll do after Lily's walk.  

The house next door is finally on the market.  He's asking $185,000.  He had his first showing yesterday.  My neighbor from across the street asked if it was a couple or a single person, since I went down to York to visit my friend Betsy, I don't know.  She'd sent me the link to Zillow, but I'd already looked.  So many bad things here, like finishing the attic, but there's no heat and probably no insulation in the walls, for one.  Here are some pictures, and yes, as you can see, it's all grey.

Not a singe wall outlet to be found in the attic

And will there be another indictment tomorrow?  Hhhmm, could be.  Even though the Orange Anus seems to think these charges will help him in his desperate attempt to gain the nomination, and the presidency, in order to avoid jail time, he's wrong.  Conservatives have always been wrong.  They've always assumed the country to be conservative at its heart, it isn't.  America is Centrist.  And while polls at this time of year are misleading as far as who's going to vote for who, this one just looks at what America thinks.  Yes, a majority of Americans think these indictments are probably politically motivated, and yes, a majority of Americans have no problem with that.  In spite of what Republicans have been telling themselves for years, that they know America, and America would love to have a socially conservative, authoritarian government, Americans would rather have a Democracy.  That's more than a kick in the shin to the GOP.  They didn't just stub their toe when they decided to become MAGA cultists, they shot of both of their feet and now it's almost impossible for them to run.  You see, they've convinced themselves that everything was black and white, well, it isn't  America is filled with grey tones.

  1. I don't know how the can get away with finishing the attic without adding electricity. Sounds insane.

    1. Especially since the house doesn't have Central Air. That room has one ceiling light.

  2. Oh, the house is painted to be shown. At least is not all white? You know that some young couple will use it as their starter home.
    And Mango Mussolini is collecting indictments left and right. I hope they televise ALL of the court hearings. I would watch, just to see him humiliated and lying in plain sight.

    XOXO

    1. The OA thinks having it televised with make him sympathetic and just the opposite will happen.

  3. I don't actually mind the house being all gray, although I'd probably change some of that. I think neutrals are a good color to move in on. Because neutrals go with most people's furnishings in the beginning. Once in for a while then many change the colors or will buy new furniture.

    1. Believe me, you would, except for the 2 front windows, every other window is north facing so there's no direct sunlight to keep it from becoming a cave.

  4. The flooring looks very nice but you're right. It is a bit grey and that would be depressing as heck in the winter (for me at least)!

    1. It's all grey, even the countertops in the kitchen are grey, as well as the cabinets. Not good at all.
