Michigan Beer


Lenten Rose from my yard.

Big Daddy had a Zoom meeting with 3000 participants. Nancy Pelosi cannot get Congress on line.

My yard got mowed today, good thing our Governor is now drinking beer. Michigan beer not Canadian beer. It is on You Tube.

She works hard for no money


Lenten Rose came back pretty good this year.

I have accomplished a lot this week and nothing I can talk about. Kind of like cleaning lamps, who notices.

This week we have had hail, wind, tornado watches, high 70's and low 40's. Now we are creeping back into the low 40's and waiting for more rain. Of course this was the week that Big Daddy's sun roof decided not to close so he spent one morning waiting for the decision on the loaner car and then the loaner car. They can't find the problem and if it is electrical thank goodness that ride gets turned back in the end of July.

Watched a documentary of Detroit, Detropia-so true.

Remember the guy from Grosse Pointe whose wife died and was found in her car in Detroit then his handyman confessed to the killing and said the husband hired him and then threatened to kill the handyman when he wimped out? Then the wacko Grosse Pointe guy hired a hit man to kill the hit man? Well, this week he was finally charged in the wife's murder-along with a whole slew of other charges and over 300 witnesses. This is gonna be crazy when it goes to trial.

Just because I am blonde does not mean I am dumb


Here is Big Daddy's precious clock, it has lost it's chiming mind with all the time changing.

I am turning into my mother and she can make you pull your hair out no matter what color you buy. So not dumb, genetics.

Thought I would be Mrs. Eye on the Ball and change all the clocks yesterday afternoon. Well there was no problem with my eyeball, got them all changed and boy I was proud. Until the 11PM news when Mr. Anchor told me not to forget to spring forward. As I was a goofball, I fell back.  Rats, I fucked it all up. Well at least I learned how to change most of the clocks. Not sure about the stove and the car and the thermostat. Figured out the computer too, it was still on China time which never changes and that was not easy. China computer, China time, who knew.

Since it was a beautiful day I walked the yard. Then I came in and cried. The work needed here is so huge I cannot believe it. A few bulbs are coming up and I have one survivor my Lenten Rose, but it looks sad.


There is some nonsense going on in the wood pile behind the garage and I think I have discovered the source, the missing next door neighbor newlyweds. It looks like some crap was thrown on top and I looked in their yard and the whole back garden area looks like someone was digging for gold. And there are bundles of wood scraps and branches and twigs all over their yard. If I catch that asshat I may get a bit angry.

Tried a new wine from Trader Joe's, the "on special" Terrenal Cabernet Sauvignon Red Wine, product of Spain. It is not bad , again all under 10 bucks.
