13/-7.
The grader went through yesterday leaving only about two inches of ice remaining. The wind this morning applying a thin sheet of ice which made the dog walk a challenge. She decided to drop a deuce about two blocks away. It’s like a hazmat drill. Take off the gloves, grab a bag, scoop, knot and get the gloves on a quickly as possible.
-Gloves off, check.
-Pull bag out, check.
-Fumble with bag, get it open after several frigid seconds…… there is a tear in the bottom.
With fingertips throbbing, grab another new bag, lick the fingertips to get the bag open. Progress.
Squat down, pick up the gift. Pull the bag through, tie the knot, grab the gloves and……. Notice the hand holding the bag is coated in dogchit. There was a hole in that bag too. Fuuuuu.
Sure looked like a crazy person.
Running down an icy street, naked hands, trying not to fall.
Luke warm water used to slowly thaw the frozen chit from my hand.
Nowhere to go but up today! |

Morning. 53F right now on it's way to 70F with an eight mph breeze and clear skies. Supposed to go to the beach this morning, but my buddy just texted me that he thinks he's going to do his breakfast date this morning first, so I am waiting to hear from him when to head out. My chiro can't work me in this morning and doesn't have an appointment open until Wednesday. I do not want to wait that long so I have to figure something else out. Hmmm. .. My neighbor across the street is a chiro and my wife is taking on a new job with one in a few weeks. Guess I'll just have to see one of them instead. |

If I had money which would mean just a little more than I need to live on...life would be so much easier...
I could get dozens of projects completed, start on new ones too...life would be so much more enjoyable...
People who have just enough money can be very happy 😊 😁
People with a lot of money all their lives have no clue what poor peeps go through...the stress and worry everyday...
I have to hustle and scrape every freakin' day, my head is always turning to find free **** I can sell or turn a profit on...I pity the **** who tailgate me when I jam my breaks on after seeing something to grab... searching through trash and dumpsters, seperate metal, dive for tickets and I still don't have enough $$$.
I spend 15-20 %of my time dealing with my mother's dementia issues , money issues, document searches, applying for aid programs, on and on and on....
In the home now for 7 freakin' years, ($400,000 dollars gone up in smoke, no inheritance at all for brother and I) she is destitute and broke but now I gotta prove that to" the man"...

20s overnight up to 36 in the early afternoon and then down to 5 by midnite and a really cold and windy Saturday. Better grab a cigar while I can still smoke out side without getting frostbite. |

Found "cheap" meat. Still $0.50 more than I prefer to pat, but less than half the price elsewhere. Picked up 20lbs of pork butts for $30 at Meijers. Was gonna just get one but it's the same amount of fuel and effort to do 2 as it is to do 1, so I did 2.
Trying something new I saw on one of the many bbq channels I watch on YouTube. I have developed my own process, but decided to try something new. Inject your butts with hot sauce before you rub em. Dug up a bottle of Blis Blast which is a pretty mild sauce and excellent on bbq. (I know I've shared a few bottles with people here) Injected the whole bottle into the 2 butts, then put on my own rub.
Smoke as usual, spray with cider etc.. Then when it's time to do a crutch if you like, put the butts in a foil pan with beef broth and worcestershire sauce, cover and finish as usual.
One butt getting broth and sauce. The other I'm gonna wrap with pineapple slices and orange juice, something I've done with pork tenderloins and enjoyed. I rarely wrap, I tend to prefer more of the fats drip off but this intrigued me.
Once done gonna vacuum pack in 1-2lb packs and freeze. I'll report back when they're done.
Another thing imma try for dinner is pulled pork elote double baked potatoes. Made esquites, baking some big taters. Gonna mash the innards, mix in some pork from the freezer refried in a skillet to crisp up, refill the skins 2/3 with the mix and top with the corns. |

Jones, It's not common that you need to rant like that. I hope every thing is going to be OK.
Didn't the facility your mother is in and that has collected her assets every month help you sign her up for Medicare or Medicaid? Did they maybe refer you to a lawyer to put the assets in a trust to avoid the spend-down? I have dealt with this before and it is basically what my wife does for a living. PM if you want. |

IF YOU START GOING DOWN HILL QUICK??.
GO TO THE E.R....
DONT TOUGH IT OUT ..
YOU PAY BIG BUCKS FOR HEALTH INSURANCE SO GET SOME OF THE BENEFITS...IT COULD BE NOTHING?
It could be Covid? It could be absolutely nothing you have heard of before? That is why you may need to get tested...
Those ER doctors are very smart...they have seen almost everything and if they can't figure it out??
They have great resources and experts on everything in the same bldg...
Blood tests, urine tests and cat scans can find out a lot... |

WI redneck SUV departs Waupun in the AM enroute to the lush frozen tundra of GB tomorrow. Can't wait to catch a a few whiffs of the lovely paper mill air as we drive past Kaukauna. If you've never had the pleasure of smelling Kaukauna, be sure to add it to your bucket list. It's an olfactory experience that you'll never forget (although it's much more pungent on a warm summer's day). |
