We have a lot going on this week as usual. Starting this morning, I’m off to Denver after dropping Jag for a meeting at the distributor. I hope to be back by 3 if the roads are ok. Lori has a big day as there were a couple of emergency surgeries over the weekend. Ty has school as usual and a big project he’s working on. Both boys have b ball tonight until a bit after 6 pm. I won’t even get into tomorrow but it’s just as fun filled as today.
Yesterday Lori and the boys had their Canine Companion meeting which went well. The Broncos were crushed which is becoming a weekly trend. Our coach needs to be fired and we desperately need a quarterback. No snow up here so I’ll take the truck down today as I have an appointment to drop it off for service. I think the snow is arriving tomorrow. I think Tom also said the movers are coming tomorrow to pick up Robins stuff. I need to go down and move out our drums and other stuff we were storing at Mom’s house since we moved, ugh.
I’ve been doing pretty well with no phone and no sugar. Jag is too! We’re trying to get Ty on board but he’s a little tougher. Time to throw out all the remaining Halloween candy. We bought a rice cooker over the weekend along with a juicer but the juicer is going back today. It really doesn’t work as advertised. Hopefully the rice cooker will as the kids love rice. Time to get the good looking one (Lori) up! Then 15 minutes later, both boys.
Tragic shooting yesterday in Texas by a felon who legally wasn’t allowed to own any guns. Yet the democrats, who just last week said not to politicize the Muslim who drove a truck into a crowd in New York, were calling for gun control before the bleeding stopped. How hypocritical, but not surprising. Thankfully an armed citizen stopped this nut or it might have been worse. When a guy drives a truck into a crowd, you blame the driver, not the truck, but when there’s a shooting, they don’t blame the shooter, they blame the gun, hmmm. And then there’s the daily shootings in Chicago where people are literally shot daily and hundreds are killed every year yet the democrats ignore that, hmmm. Must be because the Dems are in control in Chicago and Illinois and they have the strictest gun laws in the Country. I’m so sick of all the politicians, time to install term limits.
I’d better go before I go off on a rant. Be careful and watch your back, as it’s a different World than it was 20 years ago. People, especially those despondent, don’t value life anymore. There’s a number of factors that go into this that no one mentions such as Hollywood who glorifies violence, the media and all the crap they put on tv, social media, (this is a big one!) , video games, and celebrities who think that because they entertain us in movies that they somehow know what’s best for all of us, (just like senile politicians), to mental illness that our society ignores. We throw away people daily as our system is one that doesn’t care for those that need help. All you have to do is look at the VA as an example. Whoops, looks like I am going off on a rant. I’ll stop now.
So, have a great day, be safe, watch your back, and God Bless.
