I have a reason to celebrate on May 5th. That is when I stopped smoking. YAY! I cannot believe it has been 12 years. And it is still wonderful. Perry is not doing very well and every time he buys a pack, I am grateful I found ECF.
Hey everyone. Was a kinda ho-hum weekend. That funeral made me sad. Kenny has lost 40 lbs. Of course, he could have stood to lose a few but I didn't like the coloring in his face. He has been through quite a lot. It is bad enough to lose your wife but it is just not right to have to bury your children.
Perry did get my yard mowed. Something happened to the belt on the mower and it came off. Thank goodness dad taught me how to put it back on. He did teach me quite a bit.

Yesterday was not a good day. I was going to Perry's and my GPS told me to get off on an exit I had never taken before. I thought she was messing with ume so I kept going. Big mistake. There was a bad wreck and it took me an hour and a half to get to his house. The worse part is we were moving very slow and the woman behind me bumped into me 3 times. The first time I got out and there was no damage so I just let it go. The second time she hit me I got and took a picture of her license plate but I was still very nice even though she said I was rolling backwards. I was not. The third time, I lost it. I could not stop the words that were coming out of my mouth. The man beside me said he had seen her hit me twice and I should call the police. He said there was something wrong with her. He was nice enough to let me get in front of him and the rest of the trip was okay. Perry looked at the back and said he did not see any damage. I have never had anything like that happen to me. Sheesh! I hope it never does again.
Where do you think Green Acres got the idea? bahahahahahaDid he always plow in his sunday best?
Morning, all.
Well, we did hit 80 here yesterday, briefly. High 60s is the guess for today, and their maps showed random showers - all north of us. Maybe a little bit of snow in the north Cascades, so that's good, even though not ALL of the Cascades.
Yep, been a great help to many of us!!

Well, today was much the same. No one hit me though. I had a flat on my trailer (I think I told y'all) so I got new tires and because the rims were different, I decided to buy matching ones. 4 white ones, but when Perry brought them home, there was 4 white ones but two of them had a blue and red pin strip. My whole thing was they needed to match. Sheesh! Oh well, he took them back this afternoon while I stayed in and took a long shower and got my hair washed.
Oh that was not all that happened. On the way home, Perry ran out of gas. Bless his heart. Ken did that up in TN and now, once again here. The gas station was only a half a mile away but Perry would not let me walk there. Doesn't he realize I can walk for miles. Oh well. His friend brought him some and we filled up.
I think I am going to stay right here in Perry's bendy bed for the rest of the night and do my jigsaw puzzle and read.
Hope everyone has a nice night.

I saw my first up close and real peacock yesterday. Such a beautiful bird but so darn loud. Oh my! I could not believe that sound came out of a bird.
Good morning everybody.
We've got sunny skies, going up to 77 today, but the rain is coming tonight. I'll have to get my inside chores done and then go out and start getting rid of the sticker plants growing in our little patch of woods behind us. Not a pleasant task, but I'd better get started on it before they take over.
The neighbors across the street put out 50 of those big leaf bags full of whatever they're cleaning up behind their house. There's usually at least 20 bags every 2 weeks for pick up. I wonder if the township charges them extra because another neighbor said it's been going on since before we moved in. They've never even waved back at us so we haven't had a chance to talk to them. Mike and I joked about sneaking back there to see what they're doing! Maybe they'd have some tips for me to get rid of those nasty sticker plants!

Cool today, warm tomorrow, cool and wet for the weekend is the current guess.
Yeah, and often sounds like a crying baby. But, really, your FIRST ?
Maybe get a drone?

English polymath Francis Galton formulated the concept of eugenics in 1883. Inspired by animal breeding, Galton encouraged people with “desirable” traits to procreate while discouraging or preventing those with “undesirable” traits from doing the same. As social and intellectual qualities were hereditarily “fixed”, he thought some groups were naturally superior. Galton constructed a racial hierarchy, with white Europeans at the top.
Eugenics has since played out in varying, always tragic ways. Attempted genocides and forced sterilization are first to mind, though the 20th century brought about the concept of soft eugenics: non-coercive methods of reducing certain conditions through individual choice and medical advice. Popularized in Nancy Stepan’s 1991 book, The Hour of Eugenics, “soft” eugenics is accomplished by indirect, environmental, and educational interventions while “hard” eugenics is marked by direct biological interventions (such as sterilization). The term has since been expanded in discussions of genetic technologies, prenatal screenings, and physical fitness.
Enter Robert F Kennedy Jr, the US secretary of health, who regularly laments over the “back then” of his youth when he says that diabetes and autism was almost unheard of and obesity rates were far lower. (In his campaign videos he would often do this over vintage footage of white bodies splayed on a beach.) Kennedy champions living harmoniously with nature, free from the burdens of “poisonous” food additives, fertilizers, cooking oils and the most toxic chemistry of all: vaccines.

Maga’s era of ‘soft eugenics’: let the weak get sick, help the clever breed
At the heart of all Trump administration policies is ‘soft eugenics’ thinking – the idea that if you take away life-saving services, then only the strong will survive
Uh, like this?

"He's the one who cut the USAID budget. He put it in the wood chipper, because he didn't go to a party that weekend," Gates told the Times of Musk. "The world's richest man has been involved in the deaths of the world's poorest children."
And don't forget that Musk is an illegal immigrant (lied on his forms) from once apartheid South Africa....
