Bluntness

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

That's not how this works

 So, today is my 6th consecutive day of working.  Since I have a lot to say about my scheduling, this will the last time I work so many days in a row.  This week has been so out of sync.  My laundry schedule is off.  So is my cleaning schedule.  After today, I will have 3 days off.  I'll work Monday and then have another 4 days off.  That's a schedule I can live with.

While I've gotten well over 10,000 steps in each day, I haven't been on either the treadmill or the bike in over a week.  Another casualty of my schedule.  Damn.  

If the forecasters are correct, our temps are supposed to drop, with highs in the mid to upper 70s (F).  I can live with that, too.  Even though this has not been a hot summer, I will admit to looking forward to the crisp cool days of autumn.  The only bad thing is that days get shorter.  I do like long, sunny days.

My elephant ear plant is getting bigger.  What a disappointment that it took so long to start growing.  They bulbs do not winter, so I will have to check and see what'll happen if I dig it up in the fall.



Word is going around that there's a mole in Mar a Lago, that someone told the FBI exactly what they needed to look for, and where they needed to look.  Personally, if I was going to steal classified documents from the Federal Government, I wouldn't hide them in a storage unit in my basement.  Of course, this might not occur to a man who's so used to having his ego do the thinking.

After yesterday's deposition, by his own definition Trump can now officially be called a Mob Boss.  Yep, that video clip of him saying that only Mob Bosses use the 5th amendment has been playing in sooooo many places.  And that duffer didn't just use it once.  Nope.  Over 400 times he said, "same as before."  For 4 hours, those are the only three words he said, "same as before."  This will never change.

Oh, and not surprisingly, Doug Mastriano, the Republican candidate for governor in Pennsylvania had his deposition with the January 6 committee, and a rather short deposition it was, indeed.  Fifteen minutes.  You see, the first thing out of Doug's legal team's mouths was, "we have some questions."  They were told, "that's not how this works."  To which Doug's lawyers replied, "but we have some questions."  The January 6 committee responded by saying, "that's not how this works, we ask the questions, you provide the answers."  At this point, Doug and his lawyers walked out of the deposition rather rapidly.  Do you think Doug has learned how things work?  No way.  He's a spineless MAGA.

  1. Reports says Melanie doesn't want to be First Lady ever again, so my money's on her as the Mole.

    1. She didn't do much when she was First Lady, so I doubt if she'd put any more enthusiasm into the job. We'll probably find out in a tell-all book after he's arrested.

  2. Same as it ever was. I have been wondering lately, if not Stumpy, would someone else have risen and thrown so much ciaos on our political system. Was the right already at this point?

    1. I'm certain. That's the way one branch of the party was headed. I think it's better we deal with this now rather than wait until more Americans can be seduced by the lies.

  3. Sooooo you have to dig out the Elephant Ear plants in the fall? THAT's why they never came back! I read 'perennial' and just left them where they were. Darn.
    And the absolute snottery of Cheeto repeating those words over and over would have driven me crazy. The people taking the deposition should be charging by the hour. I read that pleading the fifth could be used against him in this case. Hope it's true!
    And the idea of a mole inside Shat-A-Lago is hysterical to me. I cackled for one hour when I read that...

    XOXO

    1. I will have to do some research; last I checked digging up the bulb did not seem to promising. I understand he's flipping out over the mole.

  4. I can't STAND Mr Clean!!!!!

    Can you dig up and transplant your elephant ear and bring indoors? Last fall I winterized three geraniums and brought them up from the basement in mid May. They are huge now.

    1. Winterizing didn't seem to be much of an option, but I'll check it out. Mastriano is master of nothing.
