Sure wasn't at a nearby school board meeting a couple nights ago, called the cops to break up a near riot. The liberal sex/gender indoctrination isn't going over so well for a lot of parents. Not the only school district this has happened to around here lately. Some places around the country unions are starting to get some ***** again. I have mixed feelings about unions, having worked in their bullshit environments and non-union bullshit environments, too. I'll admit, the union environment didn't smell as bad.

Ironically, I'm sure I only have my pension intact because a mostly non-union company bought the mostly union company (not the mechanics) I worked for. There's always hope.

My days usually feel too short, but I haven't had a female over 6 years old spend a night here in nearly 4 years.

See previous post. I'm less than half way through a nice spicy hot batch meself. Winter comfort food.

Took two big bowls to hold all from the Instant Pot

It was nice cloudy drizzly day. We don't get those very often in the sunshine state. It made for a nice chili day.

64 here today, thought I'd do some stuff outside, but it's real windy and feels cooler than it is, feel kind of worn out again so... lazy day indoors. Would be a nice riding day, too, if I felt better. Oh well, we'll have some more nice days, maybe by April if we're lucky.

Had I know you, Juan L and a legendary Korean were going to visit, I may have reconsidered....

Afternoon Woodrow's....

Walked 7.5 holes cut a hole and a half off the course cuz I wa getting annoyed at a golfer coming up. He was playing faster than me and I ceas out for a stroll not worried and carried my bag. So when I saw him crest the hill I made a left at the 4th tee and played the mid 5th hole. No worries point is I did it and enjoyed myself.
