Tried To Close My PayPal Account …

Forbidden00bBut they won’t let me. “There’s been an error …” and I have to contact customer service. By phone. Figures. Easy as Hell to sign up, but just try quitting. As bad as Facebook. And, yes, I’m trying to kill my PayPal account on account of the way they’re treating North Carolina (and soon Mississippi). Seems letting guys into the women’s locker rooms is way more important than LGBT people getting killed in other countries they do business in. (Not that I agree with the LGBT lifestyle; but, it’s damned hyprocritical of PayPal to not quit doing business with countries where they’re killed for their lifestyles while punishing North Carolina (and soon Mississippi) for trying to keep bathrooms/locker rooms segregated by sex.)

Forbidden02aAnd it ain’t gonna do y’all no good to rag my ass for the way I was brought up and my personal beliefs. Except to maybe prove I’m right. Ain’t no hate like a Liberal hate. (And I don’t hate anyone. Not even my Ex- anymore. Too time consuming. And, personally, I could give a rat’s ass about how you live your life; right up to the moment when you force it on me. Then we’s having us some troubles.)

Nice day today. A lay out Naked day. So, after chores I did. Oh, walked a mile on the treadmill too. Gonna (re-)start doing that for sure every day. I want to live a long time! (Mostly to bug people that don’t want me to.)

Forbidden04bOh! Yesterday I went and walked the Mall to get out of the house for awhile. Made the mistake of stopping in Barne’s & Noble. Spent $8 for “Aircraft of WWII” picture-book. My bad!

MCARC 2-meter Wednesday Chat Net went fairly well but kind of short as there were only 4 of us checking in tonight. Good thing I reminded them of our meeting this Saturday!

Not a whole heck of a lot going on. SWMBO should be home any minute and I’ll spend some time with her before I hit the rack. Think I may get up on the roof early tomorrow and get some of that pressure washing done.

Sunny But Windy Cool.

bed0cPossibility of rain off and on today. Oh, Joy. I really do need to get off my fat, old, ass and get the roof pressure washed. Probably won’t be today though. Still, not much difference between being up there in the (possible) rain (and maybe lightning today!) and making the roof wet with the pressure washer. Either way I could slide to my death. Or worse!

Which is another thing that sucks about getting old. Way Back When, when I made my only two (2) parachute jumps, I could leap off the roof, hit and roll, and come up none the worse. Not now. Now I’d be afraid to jump off the top stair (of the three) leading up to my front door. Damn. Climbing higher than 30-40 feet is starting to be a bit hairy too. (Which sucks for a Ham!)

Not a whole lot went on yesterday. We were supposed to have guests for dinner; but they forgot and were in Utah. Rude! So instead of ham and fixins’ for dinner we had deep fried burrito’s (Roach Coach Style!) and refried beans. Other than that it was a slightly unusual day cause SWMBO didn’t go to church. (Conference Sunday.) I do enjoy spending time with her. We even went for a walk.

bed1bFairly normal Monday around here so far. Trying to get up the motivation to get on the treadmill for awhile. I really need to lose 50 lbs! If I’d get off my ass and lose 50 lbs I could get off the high blood pressure meds and probably get off that cpap machine. Maybe live a couple of years longer. Maybe. I’ve already cut my consumption of soda’s by ab out 75 %; but I just like food too much. Food! Wonderful Food!

Speaking of which: made a run to Safeway for milk for breakfast (my usual honey-nut cheerio’s with crushed walnuts, dried blueberries, and a banana if I have one) and wound up buying a breakfast burrito along with the milk. That’s me; a slave to temptation.

But, I did take the Dog for a walk. Sunny but windy and cold enough for me to wear my coat. But I’m old and get cold easy.

Gotta rip a couple of CD’s for SWMBO.

Early Warning Saves Thousands

Just not a whole lot going on around here. Normal Saturday. Nice “Date Day” with my Schweetie. Went to the All-you-can-eat Chinese place in Port Orchard. Walmart. Safeway. Home.

I was asked by an Author on Amazon to read one of her books and write an honest review on Amazon about it. So far the review would not be a flattering one. SWMBO explained it to me though; this woman author writes like women speak. That does explain a lot. But, a run-on sentence, even with comma’s, is still a run-on sentence. But I’ll finish the book and give my honest opinion. That’s what I contracted to do.

Some of the members of the MCARC asked me some time ago about installing Forums on our site. Can’t do that (hosted on wordpress.com), but, I can, and did, set up free Forums on prophbb.com. We’ll see how that goes. I’m wiling to bet that, at most, one or two members actually use the things. Still, it didn’t cost anything but a bit of time to set up. And if it gets popular so much the better.

Anywho, almost a nice day today. Way cooler than it has been the last couple of days. Looking forward to the warm weather coming back. Even if I have to climb on the roof again. Which I will. Have to.

It’s only 2030 but I think I’m going to go lay down and read some. I warned y’all that I’m pretty boring.

Pressure Washing The Roof

SWMBO is really worried about me climbing on the roof when no one else is home to call if I fall. I can sympathize, but, if I don’t climb up there and do the job, who will? Her Son? Not likely. The Renter? Again, not likely. I could hire someone; but, at $3 a square foot, we’re talking some real money.

So, I spent a couple of hours yesterday up on the roof with the pressure washer and still got only about 1/3 of one side done. Legs got really tired from standing at an angle. Got hot too! Sun was really shining down. (Which I like.)

And I’m about to get my morning absolutions done and climb back up there for another couple of hours. Hopefully I will complete at least the Eastern side of the roof today. Hopefully.

#Desiree

Other than that, spent a lot of time just laying out in the Sunshine yesterday. I just have to take advantage of sunshine and heat when we have it up in the NorthWest. It’s impossible for me to not get outside in nice weather.

Nope. Not getting any of the roof done today. Got it all hooked up, started, up on the roof, only to find that I hadn’t turned the water on. Damn! By the time I climbed down the pressure washer stopped running. Have not been able to get it to restart. Probably needs to cool down and I may try later. May. Sun’s really shining though. And warm! Hmmm…

So, I laid out about an hour. Or so. Was nice. I’m already starting to look tanned in the shower. Cool! I do pity anyone that drops by unexpectedly though.

Anywho, it’s way later, SWMBO is home. Think I’ll go spend some time with her. She’s worth it!
