Sandy took off for Erie and left me unsupervised, Adrian and I went out and got some wings at Bronco’s and then to the wounded duck to shoot some pool. It was good to go and hang out, hadn’t done that in a long time. So things are good and the weekend is here.

A year ago we watched as a group of idiots led by the idiot whisperer tried to take over the United States. How embarrassing to be an American. We need to atone for this, we need to bring back the summary execution of traitors. This bitch was the only one given an appropriate sentence for 1/6/21, if we don’t want to waste the ammo, they should at least be in jail for the rest of their natural-born lives.

So I’ve got enough stuff that I want to gripe about that I feel I’m doing a disservice to myself by keeping it bottled in. Should I gripe here? I could and do, in fact, it’s my go-to place to state what’s on my mind. But let’s face it, this doesn’t get read by anyone, I’m actually fine with that this is more for me to read in my old age anyways.

In order to be part of the braying masses and asses that are on social media, I’m going to clone myself. I tried doing this by using pictures found on the net but couldn’t get past the part that this was actually someone, now with AI and photoshop, I can have a clean account to work with. More on this later.

I ran across this as I was pursuing the news before starting to get things done, “100 ways to slightly improve your life without really trying“. I enjoyed the simplicity of some of the things and will try to incorporate them in my daily life, anything to move forward and be better:)

I got up today and did a mile on the treadmill to start the day. It’s only 15 or so minutes and it gets the blood moving, yeah it’s not the most glamorous way to start the day but letting my body know it’s going to be doing something today is a good thing and it’s 2k steps closer to my 5k daily goal which I’ll be a little stricter with myself about doing.

In other news, looks like Sandy is off to PA for a surprise party, good for her, I need to start thinking about doing that but will do that when I have my degree one day. As I approach 50, there are things that are becoming more important to me, probably because I’m realizing that there aren’t an infinite number of years in front of me, not that there ever were but I never realized how quickly time goes.

Well it’s Sunday again, and the first Monday of the new year is tomorrow. And the next long weekend isn’t until May:( Oh well, I can’t complain too much. The project that I was supposed to get done by the 6th was completed last year (ha ha). So all I really need to do tomorrow is to get my hours in for December and we’re good to go.

I did good today, did 2 miles on the treadmill to make sure I’m getting my steps in, got laundry done AND put away as well as changed the sheets and cleaned the bedroom. That’s the only way I know to make the Sunday blues a little more tolerable. I’m going to try to get on a schedule tomorrow, getting up and doing a 15-minute session on the treadmill in the AM. As I start my first new year as a non-smoker, it’s time to step it up a notch in regards to getting into shape.

We got a good walk in mid-morning, it’s a good thing we did, it was about 70 then and it’s down to 50 just a few hours later, it’s supposed to go down to 21 tonight, yuck…
I tried to make ghee for the first time in my life today, it’s basically melting butter and I’m not sure what it’s good for I’ve heard good things about it. If it turns out well I’ll go ahead and post the recipe. A good start to the year, and I’m still looking forward to the things to come.

2021 is at a close and it’s time to bid a fond (or not so fond) farewell to the old year and welcome in 2022, I like it better already, easier to type:)

Well, it’s coming up to the last day of 2021. I still don’t have my money for the house so I imagine it will be tomorrow, if not I won’t have to deal with taxes for a year, should have done that in the first place. I’m going to try to do some more work on myself in the new year, I need to get more into shape now that the cigarettes are in the rearview.
