Bluntness

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

Very... interresting.

 Well, yesterday the weather was rather warm, we hit the low 90s (F), and I did not mow my lawn.  That will need to be done later this morning, or possibly in the early afternoon.  Forecasters are predicting a repeat today.  The heat doesn't really bother me.  Lily does, however, so her morning walk is shortened; we only go around the block if the temps are too warm.

Yesterday turned out to be one of those days in which I was really productive in one way, I worked on the big fish tank, and unproductive in others, no workout, no ride, and no time spent on the treadmill.  I had wanted to do one of my little videos for the channel and didn't, but at the same time added over 1000 words to the new book.  Hopefully, I'll get to throw something together this morning, maybe with a little Prokofiev for background music.

I did sign up for Threads since I already have an Instagram account.  I'm going to have to change my password since evidently someone signed into my account from New Jersey yesterday.  In case you're wondering, I was not in New Jersey yesterday.

Oh, and I baked a quiche with leeks, ham, and Swiss cheese.  It's very tasty, but way too rich.  Most of it ended up being frozen for later.  


Lin Wood, one of Trump's most loyal legal supporters suddenly up and retired yesterday in Georgia.  Permanently.  He can never practice law again, if that's what you can call his stop the steal antics.  Many are wondering if this might be the result of some sort of plea deal.  Looking at how so many are crumbling around Trump, I'd say that's rather likely.

And I saw where Mark Robinson, the seriously overweight Lt. Governor from North Carolina, defended the Mom's for Liberty in using a quote from Adolf Hitler.  This very large man who loves to push around his faith in an attempt to be a very large authority evidently doesn't know that Hitler was not a Christian.  In fact, he evidently called Christianity a Jewish plot, and saw God as an impersonal force who really didn't care about humanity.  He also believe in the superiority of the Aryan race, which God had evidently chosen.  Someone should tell Mr. Robinson that he doesn't fit the Aryan picture being both very large and black.  Oops.

Growers

Can you believe it's Sunday already?  I can.  I work today.  Don't get too close, my excitement is contagious.
Yesterday was a beautiful day.  I accomplished much.  Three loads of laundry.  Groceries were purchased. A trip to Stauffer's of Kissel Hill for 2 new succulents.


They may look small, but you gotta believe me... these guys are growers.
I reorganized my silverware drawer... I have twenty-three forks... I am never going to need that many forks.  The same is true with spoons and knifes.  I have 18 steak knives.  There's no way I'm going to eat that much steak.
I got in a 10 mile ride at place called Lipon Lake in Czech Republic.  It was listed as a 26 mile flat ride...  Well, it is flat... after the 2 mile hill, the one which goes up to an 18% grade, that you reach 4 miles into the ride.
Oh, and then I baked a Swiss cheese, spinach, and mushroom quiche for dinner.


The crust looks a little rough because I used mostly whole wheat flour and olive oil, and I didn't want to spend a lot of time daintifying it.  I knew it wasn't going to grow fat and puffy.  It was only meant to be a shell.  Oh, and I didn't use heavy cream,  Whole milk does the same thing.
Oh, and I saw where NOAA has criticized some meteorologists for illustrating how bad the Idiot Jerk's use of a Sharpie was in his fake weather prediction.  Now we know someone in charge there has their tongue up his ass.
