The Next Stimulus.

I checked my bank today,  and deposited in it was a cool $2800 more thanks to my Federal Deposit, and thanks for last year's unemployment being tax free. I still get $800 more from the State too. 

I took my dad to the doctor. He's doing fine for 86 years old. Heart is good, blood pressure was fine. Like I said he doesn't drink or smoke. He weighs over 200 pounds which isn't good obviously.  He's shorter than me.  

The doc did tell him he needs to exercise, told him about evergreen commons the old people workout place. The first place I took him. What can you do?  

Remember the route he took. Getting kicked out of bars for stalking younger women basically.  Then the heroin addict money giving fiasco, in which I kicked him out, and he came back. Back to the heroin diaries,  til he no longer has a license.  

The shit we do has consequences.  I ain't no fucking saint, that's for sure. I am comfortable with myself. Confident too. Also I am not that person who treats wait staff like shit.  That's my dad. We all hate those people.  In some circles my dad thinks he is the smartest person in the room. We all know he's the dumbest,  and you end up just watching a fool in his ways. 

Those with an inflated view of their self worth,  can really be annoying.  

Anyway, I am just doing my day to day. Luckily my day to day has work,  and income involved.  I remain busy.  I am always kinda on you know?  It is hard to turn off.  It would be hard for me to relax with too many days off, cuz it is hard to turn me off. 

I like it this way though. I slept good last night. Woke up right before my alarm.  When I got up to pee I didn't check the Sox game. That's important when they are on the West Coast.  Those late games can be brutal to my sleep if I become involved.  Mostly cuz they are still being played.  Central and East Coast games the games are over when I wake up to pee.  

The pool got delivered yesterday.  A lot of pieces.  No clue when it will get installed.  The people are busy I presume.  My part is taken care of. Just the electrician to gfi my outdoor outlets.  

It is warm outside so we will be cutting grass before we know it. Life is busy early Spring. Maybe cuz that stupid pool, plus my dad's bullshit. 

I think life is just busy. Too busy to come out of it as a Saint. You are just going to fail shit. That's for sure.  

Anyway, I spose.  

Laterzzzzzzz.       :)

Hard Getting Up.

I was tired, and went to bed super early last night. I also wanted to read my new kindle book, cuz the story has me hooked. It's a thriller,  and i want to know what happens. My eyes didn't stay open long though. Of course I woke up later,  and checked the Sox which kills my ability to sleep right after. 

Coffee helps. Anyway I could easily stay in bed and sleep another hour. I haven't done that though since the blogging streak started. I guess if I am good at one thing it is getting up before I have to. Its pretty much the only time I ever blogged all this time. Except days off of course. 

I took the dogs yesterday after work, but I didn't really want to. I wanted to nap, but I am a bad napper. It was fine, I listened to my Canadian writer's book. The 2nd one is good too. I did want to do dishes, but was too tired. I was too tired to make dinner too, so I had Lisa pick up KFC.  I wanted to get a haircut too, but that was out of the question. Maybe one of those low energy weeks. 

My fitbit should be coming tomorrow. I did miss it yesterday. For one I think it was a big step day, and also the night watch function. Not to mention tracking sleep and stuff. I am excited about this kindle stuff. I akways hear how people love the feel of books. Especially my wife,  but I guess I am not that way. I just want a story. The light thing is pretty sweet too. 

Besides that not much. I have to take my dad to his doctor appointment,  and the pool gets delivered today. After next week a lot of little shit will be taken care of. Electrician,  and my 2nd shot. Spring and Summer are busy times. Best if I do them with high energy. 

I spose.  I really have nothing.  

Laterzzzzzzz.         :)

xxoo.         :)

Byeeeeeee.      :)))

MWAH.         :)

That Is A Sunday In The Books.

Good morning. How's it going?  Me, I am fine. I listened to the book from the new for me author. It ended up being pretty good. I got the 2nd in the series. It is a Canadian mystery writer. There was a death, and it could have been about anyone who did it. In the end the person who did it, I didn't think would be the one. 

I also read my other book I didn't finish last week. I woke up early this morning. I saw with Amazon prime I get a free Kindle book each month. So I downloaded the Kindle app, and got a free book. You know what is nice about a Kindle book?  You don't have to worry about lighting.  I think I am a fan. Plus I can get Kindle addition books from the library. 

It does feel weird not having my fitbit. Just waiting for my new one to arrive. Not that weird though. I think if I didn't have one I'd be fine with it, but then again I am kinda a data nerd  I think. I like the information I get from it. 

The next two weeks will be busy. Haircuts,  pool gets delivered tomorrow,  my dad's doctor's appointment is tomorrow,  my 2nd shot is coming up, pool installed sometime,  electrician coming. There still is work to do, and books to consume. I did watch a few episodes of modern family yesterday. That show is funny. I definitely had some LOL moments.  

Yesterday was pretty normal I guess. Now I got some kind of reading bug in me. The weather should be warm for a few days. Dogs, and dinners.  

Today, I have work. We are covering a vacation for the 2nd week, so it could be a busy week. Then it will be tulip time coming up, but there probably isn't a tulip time. 

Covid is ramping up at the same time shots are too. 

I have a feeling people aren't doing social distancing so good. 

Whatever,  I can only do what's good for me. I am a good social distancer I feel. 

Anyway, I spose. 

Laterzzzzzzz.        :)

Another Sleep In.

I slept in today, cuz I have an easy day of a work. I could have got up at my regular time, but I have no need to get home in a hurry. 

Yesterday my fitbit took a shit. Kept losing battery power. Tried the quick fixes, and then contacted customer support. Through Twitter direct message if you can believe it. They asked a couple questions. They then filed for a replacement. New one got sent out yesterday. That was easy. 

Besides that not much. I shopped took Hope,  listened to a few true crime podcasts.  There was a 2 part one about Scott,  and Laci Peterson. I remember that being in the news every day for some reason. I never paid attention to it. Pretty interesting story. I can't say I am 100% he did it. 

I wonder how many missing people never get found?  They did find Laci, and her probably unborn baby in the drink. Scott may have done it, but there isn't much proof,  except he was a scumbag. 

Anyway, I have a book to listen to. Its a new for me author with a series. If its good, I may have a few more to listen to. Besides that not much. I made prime rib yesterday. Today, I don't cook. Days off kinda suck. If I had today off I would read my book. Instead I will work,  and listen to a book. Money is a good thing to make. 

I am one day closer to my 2nd Pfizer shot. I know there is a certain age where people like to go to bars and stuff. I am glad that isn't me. I don't even really go out go eat.  I am a safe covid person. Being married probably helps. I have a house, and we can make enjoyable dinners at home for a fraction of the cost. 

Anyway, today is a day. It should be okay.  

Laterzzzzzzz.         :)

An Easy Weekend.

First off its kinda a holiday weekend. I was assuming a regular work weekend. I could have had it off, but I will work an abbreviated day tomorrow. Like maybe 5 hours. I'll sleep in too.  :)

My wife got the Johnson and Johnson vaccine yesterday. She did get couple side effects,  but that's how her system operates.  She would catch every side effect. I have my 2nd shot coming in 1-1/2 weeks. Only my dad won't be vaccinated.  Guess I better get him signed up. Old people.  >: /

So, an easy weekend. I don't even have a lot to do. A little laundry,  a little shopping, and that's about it. I'll probably winterize my snowblower,  and take the lawnmower out. Winterize means siphon gas from snowblower to lawnmower. Then run her dry. I should take the lawnmower in next week. 

I felt really good Lisa got the vaccine. We will still play it safe cuz why not?  I actually really really like being socially distant.  Even antisocial.    :)  

Maybe this is what makes me be that way. If I have anything to say, I can say it right here. An outlet you know?  It doesn't matter if no one reads it cuz who cares?  I still do it. What a weird and strange thing to do huh?  As all things it doesn't do anything.  I haven't played chess in forever,  but this thing I still do.  We do as our heart dictates I guess. 

Speaking of I have less than two months til I have blogged every day for one full year. In no way was that ever a goal of mine. I think in February I thought I bet if I blog for two more months I'd hit a year. I did some research, and it was 4 months.  Gahhhhh!   That seemed like a lot, and yet here we are now less than 2 months left. 

I did gain a half pound last week. 166. Also I will probably fall shy of 72 miles by a bit. Probably all the errands and stuff from early in the week. 

Today,  I am well rested, and feel pretty good. It should be a good day. I think the weather is supposed to be good too. 

I spose.  

Laterzzzzzz.        :)

xoxo.        :)

xxoo.        :)

Byeeeeeee.        :)))

MWAH.         :)

Is This How Summer Goes?

I guess I already don't remember last year. We worked late yesterday. After I took the dogs it was close to 4:00 already. Time go start dinner. Imagine if I had to run the sprinkler,  water the garden etc...  What would I do for dinner?  You look forward to Summer,  but it is busy. Every day. Once again I was approaching 30,000 and 13. 

Busy is good, I like busy. Makes for a good day, but sometimes I wonder why I get so excited for it.  :)  

Anyway, not much besides that. Just doing this life thing. Nothing spectacular in the least. Work, eat, sleep. They invested a good amount of the $5000 I put into my IRA yesterday. 48 shares of such and such. 62 shares of this, and 27 shares of that.  I do not look past that. It's neat I guess looking at shares accumulate,  but I do absolutely no studying of where its going. Its why I have people do it for me. My other account is the same way. I originally gave them a lump sum plus $100 every week til the pandemic started.  I didn't do nothing for a while,  and now I give them $75 each week. At my age time flies,  so it adds up. I also put designated amounts into savings accounts too each week. I definitely am saving. 

I guess that's how the chasing after wind goes. You can just keep doing it. You'll never want to end. Will I ever really want to retire,  and give up that income?  People do it,  and they do it happily I guess. My body stays active, and I work out. I should be able to work at a high level into my early 70s.  

People who carry excess weight will struggle with that. So many mistakes are made after high school. God we play sports and stuff for so long. Burning calories like a machine,  and then it all stops. I don't think you realize it in your 40s too much. 50 is like the health year. They start testing you for all kindsa stuff. 

I am lucky I guess. I've been at a good weight all in my 50s.  My jobs keep me active. I changed my diet a bit to be more heart healthy. I am 54, and I feel like my legs can take me anywhere. I lift my body weight a lot with different exercises, so I don't get a lot of aches and pains. Busy is good for your health. 

My running is probably done, but I still am active, and I still get miles in. Dogs are good for that.  For me anyway. Dogs never don't want to go for a walk. Its their highlight, so a little added motivation for me to get more miles, and steps. 

50 plus is different. You start thinking of the end game. Every day you kinda gotta wonder if there is some invisible thing inside trying to reduce your days.   :)  I have no regrets of my past really. I am 54 like I said. My body can do whatever I ask of it. It bends good,  lifts good,  and my legs can take me for miles.  Nothing spectacular. Spectacular is a thing we need to come to terms with. We aren't,  and we never were. 

Anyway, I spose.  

Laterzzzzzzz.        :)

Everything Is Settled

I got everything about my dad I could find to the doctor's office.  He doesn't trust me, so he wanted to read everything I gave the doctor. He felt I was working behind him. Leaving him in the dark or something.  I showed him all the papers we started filling out, but couldn't finish, cuz of missing information. I got a release medical information from the doctor's name on his prescriptions.  Also a copy of his humana card. That's it. No secret papers filled out to throw him in a dungeon somewhere. Its done. Let the chips fall where they may. 

Also the electrician is coming the 14th. Excavator soon. Grown up activities,  all clear. 

I took the dogs, got my workout in, did a load of laundry, and made dinner.  Shake~n~Bake porkchops. Pretty good if I say so myself. Did dishes too. We watched a couple episodes of Modern Famiiy, and I crashed. I think today I might take my dad and myself to get a haircut. 

I am two weeks out from my second vaccine. I guess all is going pretty good. Staying busy, financially things are fine. My little tax windfall is pretty sweet.  Baseball starts today. How will the Sox do?  They'll be good no doubt barring more injuries.  LaRussa is the manager.  It should be a fun year. If Yoan Mocado comes back like 2 years ago look out. The offense should be pretty ridiculous. Pitching should be ridiculous too. It is a scary team one would imagine. Everybody is aiways hyped up about their team opening day.  April 1.  The start of the good season. Spring,  Summer,  and Fall. 

I guess that means cutting the grass, watering the grass, garden,  mulch, etc...   I guess even busier days. Dinners still have to be made,  and regular stuff like that. Work will get busier too. 

I don't have any goals this year. Just more of the same. Work, save money,  be busy. That's about it. No need to dig into my bucket list, cuz that sucker is empty.  Just continue doing what I do I guess. It isn't much.  :)

It's a pretty good easy life. One that keeps me pretty busy. The good thing about that is I can eat pretty much what I want when I want. My weight doesn't fluctuate much at all. I still do my big salad almost every day, and a bowl of berries. The salad adds veggies, cuz I think that's one thing everyone can use more of. Berries,  cuz they are a pretty miraculous health food. I do citrus and other stuff too. 

I spose.
