Wise Men and Kitchen Timers


I have a disability.

Well, maybe not a disability per se. Let's just say that I have a huge motivational problem when it comes to cleaning and can literally waste all day on the computer and accomplish nothing. To compensate for my, er, disability, I have come up with an excellent system that requires a kitchen timer. I call it 15/15. 15 minutes of cleaning, 15 minutes of computer time. At the end of the day, I know what is going on in the world (such that it is) and my drudgery chores are done.

I usually have two working timers at all times. Yesterday, shortly after I got home from the store, my good kitchen timer broke. I would turn the dial and it would snap back to zero and go off. I think it was the spring or something. So I had to throw it away and get the spare timer out of the drawer. The spare timer, unfortunately, never really worked very well although it cost me 15 dollars at the time. But, having just come from the store, it wasn't worth it to drive all the way back just for a timer. (Although as I write this, I'm not so sure.)

I wanted to get my chores done in the bedroom first since it is the hottest room in the house and I have to work in there in the morning before it becomes an oven. My goal is to get rid of everything that I've been hanging onto that I don't really use or need and also has no purpose in a post apocalyptic scenario. I also needed to repack the bug out bag. I don't know who keeps packing the bug out bag but they are an idiot. I could barely lift it and unless I'm planning on doing surgery on someone, completely impractical.

So I was bustling along, going from the computer to the bedroom carrying the timer with me and I got a lot done. I brought three garbage bags full of stuff out of there and it was starting to get too hot. I was at a good stopping place anyway and went to grab the timer and go back out to the kitchen. But the timer wasn't there. I went back over things and could not find it anywhere. I couldn't believe that somehow or other I lost the stupid timer. I was actually having a good day up until that point. But now, I was timerless. Not sure if I can even function properly without it.

My husband is a culinary genius and used to do all the cooking, which worked out well since I enjoy washing the dishes. But then he got sick and for the last 3 years, I have taken over the cooking because he is no longer able. Luckily, sometimes he likes simple things like fish sticks and steak fries for lunch. We have perfected the timing of it. Put the fish sticks in for 10 minutes, flip them, then add the fries for another 20 minutes. Nice and easy.

So when my husband requested fish sticks and fries for lunch I was happy to comply. I stood up, then said, “Shit!”

“What?” my husband asked.

“I don't have a timer!”

Now, my husband is usually a very wise man and we will be married for 10 years in July. While my head was in the freezer, digging out fish, he had a momentary lapse in situational awareness and started to say something foolish.

“Well, when I was doing the cooking, I would...” he started and didn't have a chance to finish because my head came out of the freezer so fast that his eyes got wide and he closed his mouth and turned back to the tv.

I could have been a good wife, appreciating how my husband was so wise that he did not finish that statement, but, I kindof suck. I did thank him for not finishing that sentence and left it at that. Although I may have used the term “Holy Hell” somewhere in my response. I'm not saying.

Now, my husband is fed, had some ice cream and is napping and I'm trying to decide if I want to make a special trip into town for a timer. Haven't decided yet.

Hope everyone is doing well, staying cool and checking the practicality of their bug out bags.

Take care out there.

Two out of Three

I wanted to write about the stupid debates tonight. Let's just throw all the old rules out the window. No audience, mic's muted, compromised people running the thing. So, what you are telling me is that the whole thing could be completely faked? Hell, it could be green screened and edited and then broadcast as live. How would we know? We wouldn't. I would not be surprised if the whole thing is CGI. It's not like we haven't seen CGI versions of Biden out there already. Of course, for the first time in history we will also have commercials. (brought to you by Pfizer most likely.) Such a joke.

I thought about writing about how HOT it is. But it isn't record breaking hot or anything. It's not 109 degrees outside like last summer when it killed my dog. But look at a weather map of the US and it is all scary bright red. Ooooh. Brought to you by the deadly climate change we have now. I'm so sick of the narrative.

Of course, Julian Assange also went free recently. Guess his contract was up for renegotiation. I can't even remember what the original thing was all about. Who knows? I remember that what he once released was ultra important, but, like always, nothing ever comes of it.

But what actually made me stop what I was working on to write a post, was hearing the most eff'd up song ever. Every time I hear this song it pisses me off because it is so very messed up. Just the absolute worst thing you could ever say to someone. Here it is:



Anyway, I don't even know what I am doing anymore. Hope you are all doing well and staying cool where you are. Take care out there.

Addicted


Most of the people who come to my blog already know that we are slaves to the system. This idea is not new to them, and I could reiterate all the ways we are imprisoned in this system, from the laws in our country not being enforced and/or being twisted and used against law abiding citizens, to the fake money that is constantly being manipulated to steal as much of it from us as they can so that it is almost impossible to live. Name a category – it is part of our enslavement, one way or another.

One category of this slavery system that I can't seem to be able to get away from is drugs. I'm not talking about fentanyl or heroin, or any other opiates, although I hear often that we have an opiate epidemic in this country that doesn't seem to be stopping anytime soon. I'm talking about levothyroxine. For those that may not know, levothyroxine is prescribed for thyroid issues. In my case it is for hypothyroidism or more specifically Hashimoto's disease. That is an autoimmune disease on top of the hypothyroidism. Your own body attacking itself.

Twice in my life I have attempted to stop taking levothyroxine. Both times I swelled up and the pain in my hands was excruciating. I couldn't sleep at night for sweating but I was exhausted all the time. Both times I had to go back on it in order to get back to normal. My sister tells me that 100% of the females in our family have thyroid issues that require daily medication to treat. 100%. I wonder what the chances of something like that occurring naturally. Yeah, you know where I'm going with that question.

You can't buy levothyroxine over the counter. You have to go to a doctor and get a blood test and they will have to write you a prescription for it. Then the pharmacy will only give you, at most, 3 months supply at a time. Wouldn't want you to be out of the medical system too long doncha know. I wonder how much the pharmaceutical companies make on that alone.

The other drug I can't seem to get away from is omreprozole. It is used for extreme heartburn. I know I have missed a couple days when all of a sudden I get the worst case of heartburn. I really chalk that one up to the poisoning of the food supply. Our bodies know this is not natural food we are eating but chemical monstrosities masquerading as food. For example, it cost me three dollars to buy a pint of half and half without disodium phosphate added among other things. Half and half should only have milk and cream. But these are the days we are living in. My suggestion is try to stock up on as much of these daily medications as you can. Some of them are already becoming scarce.

Anyway, that is all for now. Hope you all are doing well. Take care out there.

Wickedness Personified

They are wicked and delight in their wickedness. They openly brag about their hatred of Almighty God and His son Jesus Christ. They have no shame. They hate those who believe in Him and seek to do them harm. They admit that they are witches doing spells in their barns. They embrace everything that is evil. They hate the good.

They are everywhere now. Nothing is restraining them from running to shed innocent blood. They boast of their meanness. They pretend to be kind and listen so that they can take your words and use them against you. It is in their very nature.

They hate men and seek to destroy them at every opportunity. They embrace everything that is ugly and hate beauty. They are covered in tattoos so that they soon resemble the demons that inhabit them. Time to get another one.

They laugh at the calamity of others. It is like their nectar. There is no empathy within them. They speak great swelling words against the Most High and against His people. They have saturated every level of society from the highest to the lowest. They appear to be winning, but that is a lie.

The Lord has no desire for the wicked to perish, but that they should turn to Him and He would heal them. But they have closed fast their ears from hearing and their eyes they have shut tight. They are unable to see their approaching ruin. They will turn and rend you if you try to give them pearls.

They are wickedness personified.

Take care out there.

666?


Just thought I would put this out there. We are dealing with evil on an unprecedented scale, so we never know what is going to happen. Maybe nothing. Who knows. Just for informational purposes only.

Fake and Gay


I'm not surprised that the fake verdict in Trump's fake trial is guilty on all counts. You didn't actually believe it would be otherwise did you? I'm sure his scripted and fake arrest will happen soon. I am surprised how many people are just now going to fly their flags upside down. As far as I'm concerned our flags should have been flown upside down for the last five years, at least since they started making the vaccines mandatory. Let's not forget on who's watch that occurred.

Today, of course, is the start of Gay Pride month. People are getting pretty sick of the whole gay agenda. I know I am. Some days, there just isn't enough closets.

Things at work have calmed down considerably. Thank you to everyone who was praying for me. It has been a downright pleasant work environment lately. I'm counting it as a miracle. It is surprising how quickly mountains can be uprooted and thrown into the sea. Of course, now that everything is going well, I'll be moving to the graveyard shift with the night trainer in two weeks instead of two months. I've always known it was going to happen sooner or later. I'm just hoping I will be able to adjust my sleep schedule. I literally haven't stayed up to watch the ball drop on New Year's for a couple of decades! We'll leave that in God's hands as well.

I'm still monumentally busy. My days off are filled with catching up on housework, catching up on sleep or doing meal prep for my work days. I'm going to try to keep my current schedule, just changing it from am to pm. We'll see how it works out.

Hope you all are doing well. Take care out there.
