Well, actually that's not too unusual for me! Unfortunately! But then again things aren't changing a bunch around here. It's still in the 20 F (5 C) area at night; 50-60 F (20-25C) in the daytime; and fairly sunny. We did have a couple days of 20 mph wind but that too is gone.
We have had several homes built in our area in the last 6 or 8 months and the other day a couple guys dropped a container in the lot across the street from us so I'm expecting a new home to be built there during the next few months. We'll see what happens. Otherwise it's the old retired fart usual stuff: visit the doctor, go buy groceries, go buy booze, dah dah dah.
Of course we are getting a new President and he is managing to make an ass of himself in a different way almost every day. I mean 'The Gulf of America' - take over the Panama Canal - the 51st state of Canada - the 52nd state of Greenland - WTF??? The guy's just bat-shit crazy! And some of the people who are going to be running the various departments; I'm afraid they are probably worse! I've said it before but all those people who voted for Mr. Trump are going to be sorry about their votes and probably sooner than later! It does make one think of moving out of the country but, well, 1) where would one go, and 2) what's going to stop Trump from taking that place over next? I mean the 53rd state of Portugal? Who knows?
Well, as an older white guy with a pension (small, believe me!) and Social Security and some savings; I should be ok. It's the lady who cleans our house (very Mexican); the people at one of our favorite restaurants (Japanese); the guy at the garage (pretty Mexican); they are the people who might not be here in a year. Oh, but we will have lots of new computer designers from where-ever to design the new Tesla. Grrr!
As you can tell I'm kind of obsessed with political thoughts these days. I read blogs about people who are just having fun trying to catch some fish or traveling in Mexico or trying to take good photos of birds. I need to follow their lead. My blood pressure will thank me! And I can't remember the last time I used a real camera; all I do these days is use the phone. Damn, I'm lazy & it's easy. Now I just have to learn how to connect the phone/camera with this new computer. That's a problem but I'll get there.
Take care & keep away from all those sickies out there.
