Bluntness

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

The Big Sucking Truck

 Well, it's Thursday.  I have my physical this morning, and I get my 2nd booster.  Oh, and there is some other stuff planned.

We had a freeze warning. We came close.  It's 37 (F) outside, though dawn's warming temperatures are creeping around us as I type.

The ghost has been at it again in my house.  I woke up this AM to find all of the lights hooked up to Alexa were on.  They were off when I went to bed.   There is the possibility I got up sometime during the night, went downstairs and gave Alexa the command, "let there be light."  Who knows?

Yesterday was odd.  Biggie had a Vet appointment.  They took blood to see how his system was handling the Carprofen.  $164.  Holy Crap!

Oh, and my neighbors had their house sucked, or I guess if you don't like that word, they had it vacuumed, or at least they had their duct work cleaned.  Believe me, it was very loud.

A big sucking truck

I guess the Republican members of the House had a private meeting yesterday at the end of which Kevin McCarthy got a standing ovation of support.  At least that's what was released to the media.  Is the report accurate?  Possibly.  However, none of us will ever know what was communicated beforehand.  One thing you need to be certain of, they are going to do their damndest to show a united front.  Do not doubt there is growing concern among Republicans that the big sucking truck called the January 6 Committee is going to clean their ducts.  Oh, and they know the sucking will be well underway by the time the mid-terms roll around.

  1. Ohhh We got the second booster and I felt nothing. I've only felt a little sore spot with the first one, to tell you the truth.
    And Alexa is sneaky. She's always listening... I asked her about sex and she freaked out. I think they have some words blocked so kids cannot ask 'those' questions.

    The Repugs are all about themselves. They will not break ranks or at least pretend they support each other's corruption. Some splinters are happening though.

    The committee is taking its time. But a lot of things are 'leaking'. Can't wait until they have public hearings to spill the tea...

    XOXO

    1. Shot went fine, felt nothing. And splinters are happening all over the place in the GOP

  2. They cheered a traitor, why wouldn't they also cheer a liar.

    1. They will tolerate anything as long as they can stay in charge.

  3. I have not made plans to get the second booster yet. I have not heard much about doing it.

    1. I got a text from the VA and my physical was already scheduled, so I said 'yay.'

  4. I think we're going to wait until the fall to get our next boosters. Right now our community numbers are low, but I expect another spike then and so I'd rather wait a little longer. I sympathize with the vet bill! The price of everything has gone up, including vet services.

    1. It will spike again, hopefully the anti-bodies will still be doing their job.

  5. I remember John over at Going Gently saying goodnight to his menagerie and Alexa replied "goodnight John"! So yeah, maybe Alexa is listening in to you at night! Spooky!

    1. You can have your Alexa respond, I don't. The AI in my house needs to be kept in its proper place.

  6. I hope they get sucked dry and crawl off to some hole so we never hear from them again. Hope Biggie heals up and the second booster went well.

    1. The booster went very well. As for getting sucked dry, their ducts are pretty damn dirty.

  7. Unfortunately Mccarthy or whoever Republicans pick will probably be House speaker come next year. At least two years of a obstructionist congress 😔

    1. To keep that from happening is to go out and vote BLUE.
