Sunday Morning Sip

Sunday... Sunday... Sunday... coffee...

Not big enough... 

 

Ah yup. 

Well... I am an asshole, just not that kind of asshole. 

Between the disapproving look from my eyes,

the tense clench of my jaw and my 

near imperceptibly mumbling "Holy fuck!" under my breath,

I'm finding hiding my thoughts in public is nearly impossible. 

 

I do not want to know the amount of money

that fucker grifted since landing his fat ass

back in office. 

Winter ends soon. 

 

I have my "Morning when you first pee" pill.

Then the "Morning before you eat" pills.

Then the "Take after dinner" pills

Then the "Take before bedtime" pills.

The "getting old" shit if for the birds. 

I have entered the phase of calling everyone

"Sweetie", "Dearie" and "Hon." 

Thank you, Wiley. 

 

But "Are you fucking kidding me?" is taken. 

Ah-yup.  

And left him some fur! 

Applies to so many things. 

 

 

 Some food for thought.

 

My husband and I watched the Netflix series 

"Living to 100: Secrets of the Blue Zones" by Dan Buettner.

A lot of this YouTube video jibes with that series.

Just good advice on taking care of yourself, your life and your community.  

I certainly don't plan to live to 100, but if I can 

make these last decades on Earth a bit... healthier... 

comfortable, functional... I'll take it.  

 

 

 

 

 

UPDATE: Tiverton Town Alert - BLIZZARD WARNING

Forecasting 18-24" of snow and high winds starting tomorrow late afternoon / early evening through all day Monday. 

Be careful!

 

To the townies who follow my blog, the following alert has been issued from the DPW: 

Trash & Recycling Delay

Trash and recycling will be delayed one day the week of February 23rd due to the pending winter storm.

Yup... we're gonna get hit.  6-12" of "heart attack" snow.  Yeah.   

Saturday Morning Sip

I hope it's a happy Saturday out there!

Grab a mug, pull up a chair and let's enjoy.

 

 

My deck of Tarot cards won't come out 

of the box at this point. 

They're like "No fucking way!" 

Ah-yup! 

I never thought, in all my life, I would be looking

back on the George Bush era and go,

"Ya know... I kinda miss you." 

And cleared the chakras!   

Tapping the button just does not cut it. 

Not when there is hot chocolate involved. 

Thank you, Wiley! 

Our nightly doom-scroll. 

Jason in snow.

LOVE Jason. 

LOVE LOVE LOVE him!

LOVE vodka.

But Meili vodka... is shit. Bought TWO bottles because 

you cannot buy just one to see if you like it. 

You cannot sip it.  

It makes a terrible martini.

Perhaps I'll use it as a carburetor cleaner on the mower?

But I still love Jason.

 

 

Let's end the day with a little meditation.

"...and have a Tariffic day!"

Trump got his winkie whacked by SCOTUS!  

The chief justice and 2 Trump appointees ruled against the president’s tariffs 

AP News:  Chief Justice John Roberts wrote the court’s majority opinion, joined by Justices Neil Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett, two of Trump’s three Supreme Court picks. The three liberal justices were also part of the majority.

Justice Brett Kavanaugh, Trump’s other appointee, wrote the main dissent, joined by Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito.

 

Oh, those poor, poor catsup bottles...

Thank you, Wiley.

On James Talerico...

Heather Cox-Richardson has a wonderful take on the Stephen Colbert interview with James Talerico.  

Net: Trump realizes the threat to his actual Christian base through Talerico.  A good listen.  

Rade 

The Fascist States Of America

A two-fer this morning.  HCR and Stephen Colbert!   

Heather Cox Richardson is tired of sugarcoating the reality of the Trump administration.  She's calling it what it is, and lays out how we got here. 

This dovetails in with the Rep. James Talerico interview on Stephen Colbert where he identified how "White Christian Nationalists" are using fabricated agendas to distract the public.  This was the interview that CBS demanded Colbert could not broadcast because of some FCC rule that only seems to apply with Trumps feelings are about to get hurt. ...so Colbert put it on his YouTube channel. 

Both marvelous listens.  

And the coffee has not even begun to brew.  

Onward!
