I remember....

...how I used to go up and down stairs easily.

But not now.

My knees are bad.

I hurt and have to be careful coming up stairs.

I'm better going down, but not by much.

Oh, I long for those days when stairs were just stairs and not a problem....

 

A divided nation

 All you have to do is watch a Trump rally to realize how messed up in the head he is. 

Every other sentence and text he puts out is full of lies.

Though some of his rallies aren't full, the people who are there are fully supportive of him.

It's like the Republican Party is a cult not a political party.

I pray and pray that Harris beats him.

If she doesn't I will sink into depression and our country will be a mad house.

A truly 'mad house'.

I have no idea

 Bern's been working in the front and back yards for a week or more.

(She leaves the side yard alone since our pet cemetery is there!)

I watched her do a lot of it but even with first hand knowledge of her work, I have no idea what she's doing!

She shears branches and cuts them up.

She digs up plants and cuts them up.

She removes things and cuts them up.

Today I counted and found 10 leave bags full--those big old bags.

And I have no idea what she's doing or why.

If she goes to the home before me, I'll be living in a jungle before long....

But odds are I'll go to the home first and she'll continue doing what she does in the yards.

And I'll be so demented I won't wonder what she's doing....

What happened?

 A totally deranged man who once voted for him was on his Golf Course to try to shoot him, kill him?

It was a weird thing.

Just like T and V are weird.

Very strange.

And Vance blamed Democrats for it?

And with all the vile things they are saying about Kamala, they say Democrats should watch what they say????

Weirder and weirder every day....

Going to the doctor

I went to my primary care doctor today.

She outweighs me by about 80 pounds, but is competent.

I'm pretty fit for a 77 year old man who grew up in West Virginia and smokes and drinks white wine.

Go figure.

My vital signs are really good.

My mind in not so good.

I forget things.

Today, after I fixed my lunch, I left the burner on. Bern caught it though it was on low.

Shame on me.

But I want to live a while. 

Next year is Bern and mine 55th anniversary.

She was 20 and I was 23.

So we've been married to nearly 2/3 of our lives.

Imagine that....

 

I only recently knew...

 I hadn't realized until an hour of so ago that this was Friday the 13th.

I'm not superstitious, so it doesn't matter that I didn't know.

Hope your Friday the 13th was as uneventful as mine was.

Haitians eat dogs

The presidential debate was a walk off win for Kamala!

No doubt about it....

Trump's 'dog eating' outburst would have been enough. But he avoided and lied over and over.

And the split screen showed us all Kamala's reactions to what he was saying.

It was wonderful and poetic.

She laughed and frowned and put her hand on her chin and shook her head in amazement. 

Quite a contrast between the two.

Don't eat your neighbor's dogs...alright?
