What's everybody doing today?

[Heartbroken]

Participated in early voting. In person. With my own pen.
Not because I wanted to, or have any faith that my vote will be fairly counted, but because my Husband would have wanted me to. He was very passionate about this country.
I had intended to take today off to do chores, but what with the rain and being extra tired and messed up from the stupid time change, ended up driving the computer all day. Saved up that annual leave for another time. Lots of strange stuff going on. Had a complaint come in about mercury being tossed into a parking lot. Who in the world has a cup full of mercury hanging around, and thinks it's a good idea to throw it in the parking lot of a tiny dive bar? Then there was the guy with a complaint about a city water bill. He knows it's wrong because before he left for vacation, he unplugged his sump pump so that it wouldn't overflow the basement. Let that one sink in for a minute. The level of stupidity floating around out there is scary.

No not really. We have an abundance of food - 2 fridges and a pantry chock full, but nothing on the level of many of you.

So yes, we'll starve if TSHTF.

I dont either
I never went bat sh*t crazy
I dont open a food store business either LOL

It is not the end of the world and if it comes ...
food will go bad or poisoned by chemicals

Spent the day at the hospital with husband. But now he's seen his specialist, IV anitibiotics will arrive at the house tomorrow, and he has a picc line in. I got booted out of the room while the line was being in, so filled up the truck with gas, got more cash from the bank, and filled a cart of dry goods at Ollies.

Bye Bye Grey Rainy Cold Monday
Tomorrow supposed to be the same
But it never goes boring with my furry babies with me

Yup November 04 2024
Tomorrow we supposed to know if Elections were crooked or not
Wish it will be like *2016*

Fire going to kill humidity

Dinner was :
Mini tomatoes and chicken pieces fried mixed rices and mint jelly
Had after a very hot *Earl Grey Black Tea - Cardamom - Honey*
Had a 2 ounces Vodka shot

Now I just listen smooth music --- read the forum with Miss Ruben with me
All cats sleeps and Dane Girl snoring

So until I get very tired myself ...
Sleep well whenever you go to bed

Went to a funeral today, my neighbor who was killed last week, tragic. He and I shared a few cousins, several were there. But there were quite a few people I didn’t know. Speaking of which… 3 women came over to where I was standing and gave me a big hug. They weren’t together, came over at different times… I have no idea who they were. They knew me, called me by name. One seemed familiar, mentioned a girl friend I had in 1977. Did they get old or is my mind slipping? Or both?

No plans but tv this evening...

Got up, worked out, cleaned up, went to work, ran to the store for the lady, got caught up in a dispute between a security guard and a Karen, listened to Steve Bannon on talk radio talk about all the J6'ers and little old ladies he saw in prison thanks to the weaponized DOJ, collected the mail, came up to the apartment, talked to the girl about her getaway, grabbed my laptop, came to the forum, made this post.

What is "..a Karen"? I've heard this term before, but in a derogatory fashion.

I was tasked with installing some perennial flowers on the front hill so I loaded up the side by side. No start.... trouble shoot... schedule my brother to consult before I call the shop.

Noticed an older couple out front looking at my house. I saw then look at the yard sign and hob nob. I asked them what they what they were looking for and they were looking for apartment "G". I explained this was once a duplex and I rented to a democrat back then. They said it must be a mistake ans walked away. I told them to behave themselves. When they drove away I noticed a green license plate in their ev. What us green? Vermont? They came a long way to find me.

The Princess just headed of to bed. She will up at 4:30 so she can open the polls tomorrow. She then has a 14+ hour shift working the polls. It will be a long day for her.

"Karen is a slang term typically used to refer to a middle-class white American woman who is perceived as entitled or excessively demanding."

Hmmm

A self-righteousness individual that is the first to point out the perceived short comings of others.

Yes.

That also.

But ....

Doesn't have to be a woman or white.

That is what I thought, but I searched for it and this was the definition that came up. I'm sure any woman of any color could have Karen behavior. In fact, I've seen it.

Today was the first battle of the year in the war on leaves. I think I won this one.

Took the toilet jack over to friend's house after briefly stopping in to Walmart to grab some stuff. Got some popcorn chicken from the deli. Friend was eating dinner so I spent most of the time holding Kelebrimbor. He got some sort of oil or something on himself so I gave him a bath and held him while he dried off. He's such a loving little baby. I want to bring him home so badly. Mom said "no" but bro was joking we could just claim we found him somewhere and its a different kitten.

It was time to give Fippy and Princess their flea meds (and Princess needed her heartworm meds). Fippy gets an annual shot for heartworm but Princess tested positive so she has to take monthly oral medication. She took the heartworm stuff just fine but kept spitting out pieces of the flea pill-- which I fed to her inside popcorn chicken. Mom ate some of the popcorn chicken and gave the rest to Fippy. She used it to give him the flea pill as well.

AC guy called to apologize and say he couldn't make it today. Too many jobs ahead of ours and things went wrong so it was taking longer. Mom said it was fine and that she understood. He also said how much stuff would cost if it wasn't something wrong with the outside unit. Outside unit is still under warranty.
