Bluntness

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

Clown Parade

Well, we've reached midweek and so far the weather has been fine.  We were living with a prediction of rain yesterday, but if we got any it was during the very early morning hours.  We did have clouds from time to time that looked somewhat threatening, but they never amounted to anything.  Today's temps should once again be climbing up into the mid 60s (F).

Jon, the PT who's providing insight into physical therapy for my books, came over yesterday morning and dug out the three bush stumps sitting in front of my house.  Now, all I have to do is fill in the hole with the dirt that was dug.  He also helped carry my old dishwasher to driveway.  From there, I can easily roll it down to the curb for next Tuesday's garbage pickup, and yes, we can put out one appliance a week. 

I have a list of chores set up for today.  There are only 4 items on the list, but 2 of them are time consuming so we'll have to see how things work out.  I was going to head over to Planet Fitness this morning, but I have a feeling that's not going to happen.  Instead, I will substitute it with either a dumbbell workout or possibly play around with my bands.  

I saw this yesterday and thought it quite appropriate.


For those who haven't been paying attention, Jimmy Jordan lost by 20 votes when they voted for the Speaker of the House.  I understand that even Kev McCarthy got more votes on his first try.  So, will Jimmy decide that it's in his best interests to compromise?  Nah.  From the whispers I'm hearing, when they vote again this morning it's quite likely some of those who voted for him will have changed their minds.  I'm sure they've realized for some time that Jimmy, besides being a pedophile enabler, is also a bad joke of a human being.  

And, finally, I'm not a big fan of Facebook.  I scan down through every morning to see if any of my friends have posted something.  That takes about 2 minutes.  This morning, however, I had to pause when I saw a group has been started:  Republicans against Scott Perry.  Scotty's the congressman from the district I live in.  He's also a scum buddy of Jimmy Jordan.  Even though I'm not a Republican, I gave the page a like. For those who don't know, Scotty is one of those who asked the Orange Anus for a pardon after the American people fired that asshole.

  1. I know it won't happen, barring some other worldly miracle, but would it be something if Democrat Hakeem Jeffries was elected Speaker of a GOP-controlled Congress?

    1. You're right, it won't happen, but watching the Republican chaos is soooo much fun.

  3. OMG Gym has been humiliated. Twice. In a row. It tells you how hard he needs this position because he's not budging. He'll go for a third one (even though he only got 199 votes the second time. Shameful). I love infighting in the Repug flanks.
    And you know anybody who asked for a pardon is because they're dirty...

    XOXO

    1. I do believe Jimmy thinks that if he doesn't get this job, his political life will be over... and he'll be spending a lot of his future days in jail.

  4. From pulling out tree stumps to carrying dishwashers I can see why your friend is a physical therapist. They're incredibly strong! But damn I wish we could just put stuff at the kerb to be taken away. I'm still trying to figure out how to get my old BBQ down to the tip!

    1. If I tell him that it will blow up his ego. 😎😎😎 We are lucky here in that we're allowed to put one appliance at the curb for garbage collection.
