GROUNDHOG BE DAMNED! Michigan's first fake Spring has arrived, and we are dumping the Stormy Kromer hats and snow boots for shorts and flip-flops for few days. As the mornings are still crispy, I am sticking to a leather jacket to cover my bases. The snow snerts stuck on the bottoms of cars are crashing to the ground for other cars to re-crush; car washes are overflowing (pun intended); sunglasses in full view. The kids are in sweatshirts in 20 degree mornings, but then they always are. Looked like fistfights were going to manifest as the pre-paid vs the just-stopping-in cars vied to be first through the car wash barrier. Who knows? I may have received an upgraded wash as determined folks cut the other line off. I keep hoping that happens at McD's but they seem to have the quadruple lines under control. Then again, what upgrade could I hope to get at a McD's notwithstanding their Shamrock shake.
UPDATE Tried to go "cold turkey" on the Tylenol today but couldn't make it past noon. Not bad, just annoyingly restrictive for someone who leaps to her feet and takes a lot of stairs. Just taking two pills a day but feels like failure. It is also my multiple trips downstairs to do laundry, so probably not a good day to try floating on strong will and guts. Doc scheduled a second recheck for Tuesday I had not anticipated, so don't know if that is good or bad. Normally he doesn't do the 2nd recheck for three months. A little swollen, but the scar is pretty well healed. I may need a new nickname however between my multiple markings on shoulder, breast, abdomen (from age 5), knee and hip. A life well-lived one might say. Not to mention my own baby tattoo on my right hip. Emphasis on "baby-sized". Those tramp stamps are going to look mighty bizarre on the elderly-lol.
SAVE us from them. If the repub agenda is so good and popular, why do they keep trying to find ways to rig the elections and they think the other side is crooked? I believe the actual number of fake voters is .0000000001 after checking multiple sources. My birthplace, Detroit, has had a week with marmie trying to stop us from using the new bridge that Canada paid for, and we agreed to 10 years ago. Of course, that came after an 11th hour meeting with the morons (Mourouns) owners of that "other" bridge who have been fighting this since day One. Fortunately, our fearless leader is quite open to bribery. Though it appears the Michigan repubs may have grown a little spiney on this one. Second, I can't wait to see beautiful downtown Detroit shrouded in its gown of gray like the 50's as they roll back the last of the environmental laws.
Our fellow humans never fail to lower to the occasion. Upon visiting and seeing the horrendous conditions in an ICE facility -60 people crammed in one room with one toilet the 1st comment was congressmen have no right to enter a federal detention center. Yes, actually they do, but that was the very first comment-what have we become? There is a reckoning awaiting many of these quisling-patriots.
GOODIE TIMES The unholy trinity has occurred this week-the clash of Valentine's, Paczki, and Girl Scout cookies all vied for equal billing. Sugar overload on tap. Since I have disavowed the sweet call of sugar most of the time, I am literally dying here. Thin mints will end up in the freezer to be enjoyed over the course of a year. Paczkis have to be devoured immediately for the maximum "Fat Tuesday" tradition" of using up all your good stuff (lard) before Lent. I only eat the middle anyway as I hate the wasted donuty part. Straight candy is strictly regulated unless I crave a wine exchange. Being healthy is a drag. Peace out/stay strong/love your neighbor 💚 💙💛
