When you hit middle age you really only have two choices: you can get fat and lazy until you roll over and die, or you can can get off your ass and do something, like maybe ride a bike.
Bluntness
I've also been told I have little tact, so if this offends you simply ride on.

This morning's Central PA temp was 60 (F), that's almost as cool as cucumber! Temps will be rising though, both today and for the beginning of the week. By Wednesday we should be topping off with a high around 93 (F) with high humidity. Thunderstorms are supposed to be hanging around the area, but the chance of us getting a storm is 55%, so I'd say that's iffy.
Yesterday was a good day as far as writing goes. No workouts were done. No walking done. But as long as the words are going into the laptop things are good. One thing that is making this easy is the dealing with the time when Eli's mother was still alive. I'm old enough to remember what things were like around 40 years ago. You know? What songs were playing on the radio. Here's a bit that may or may not be important to the plot. One of the biggest hits back then was by a band called The Eagles. One of their many hits was a song called Take it to the Limit. Where as an enormous number of pop and rock songs are written in 4/4 time, Take it to the Limit is written in 3/4 time, also known as Waltz Time. Does Waltz Time come into play in a mystery titled The Body in 4/4 Time? Stay tuned. Here's a live version of that song from 1977.
I did work yesterday and actually got 2 measures, neither is going to break the bank for the customers. One is a small bathroom that'll probably cost around $800, and the other is a single bedroom. The house is for sale, however there's ink on the bedroom floor and no one is making an offer. this is a good example of how many people try to get their asking price without fixing anything up before the house goes on the market. The carpet is not going to match the rest of the carpeting in the house. The seller, himself, wouldn't make an offer, so he's putting in the cheapest carpet we have to try and get his asking price. I'm hoping he doesn't get it and has to reduce his asking price.
I'm betting Orangie's having wet dreams over his meeting with his Blo Bro Vlad. This meeting is not a good thing. Orangie will give away the bank in order to give old Vlad a cuddle or two.
One thing I do find amazing is that MAGA cultists are truly ignorant of the hate Orangie is generating towards them and their party. These people are in their own little world, totally clueless. True, some are beginning to scratch their heads with the Epstein scandal, but many of them are still delusional. Nothing is going to change that, unless they do manage to start a war and America starts hanging their treasonous asses.
