    Indian H-1B workers are taking over American jobs by the thousands !

    This is something that is just now really coming out in the news here in the United States. It is not just that we have a lot of these H-1B workers here taking American jobs, but they are now running American huge corporations, and they fire the American workers and hire Indian workers on the...

    What's your Weather like today

    It has been really nice weather all this week, no rain, which is good. We had about a month straight of almost rain every day ! I am looking at the forecast for the next ten days, and it shows hot weather, rain and thunderstorms every single day. It is nice right now, but we are supposed to...

    Journal of a perennial optimist (part 2)

    It looks like we are finally getting into summer weather. The pool is ready to swim in, but the water is still too cold to be comfortable. We are supposed to have temperature to almost 90F this next week, but the forecast shows rain and thunderstorms every day for the next 10 days, so no...

    What's bothering you right now?

    It is still fairly early morning, and the neighborhood roosters have been crowing since the break of dawn, a few hours ago. It started with just a few chickens , but now that we have so many Hispanics that have moved here during the Biden regime, it seems like they all have livestock of some...

    Last thing you ate

    Breakfast this morning was coffee with A2 milk, fiber cake and fresh strawberries. So delicious !

    What are you listening to right now?

    Unfortunately, what i am listening to is roosters crowing around the neighborhood. It seems like most of the Hispanics that moved here also wanted to raise chickens and lots of roosters, even though the city ordinance says roosters are not supposed to be allowed in the city limits.

    Last thing you've done when offline?

    Now that the weather is nice and sunny, we have been working outside in the yard again. I have been weedeating and planting a new small raised bed garden. It looks like more rain is in the forecast, so I need to get as much done before it starts raining again as I am able to do.

    Do you like to garden ?

    I got two raised bed containers from Walmart and Bobby put them together for me. I have one out in the front yard already. I did a lot of weeding yesterday, so I had a bunch of green stuff to use as filler in the container, and then we added some dirt on the top. It needs more dirt, so I will...

    What animals have you seen recently?

    No, the rabbit is at least as large as the cats, maybe larger. Except for Mama Kitty, I do not think that any of the three young ones eat any kind of live creature, although they do chase everything that they see moving. They might have accidentally swallowed a few bugs or moths. The mother...

    What books have you been reading lately?

    That was an excellent book, and I just finished it myself. I really enjoy reading all of the Robert bailey books. He is an attorney that lives here in Huntsville and all of his books are about this area. So, I not only enjoy the story, but I always learn more about this part of Alabama where I...

    What animals have you seen recently?

    The only animal that we have seen besides our dogs and cats was the neighbor’s big black rabbit. I think they must turn him loose in the yard and he just hops over here now and then and tries to play with our cats. He has even followed them up the ramp to the porch and if the gate was not shut...

    Oh, man, my whole body aches today ! Yesterday was such a gorgeous day and I worked outside and in the flower gardens for most of the day, and did a LOT of weedeating, and this morning, my back is letting me know that I did all that bending and yard work. Having my morning coffee, and then...

    I am away on holiday

    I am looking forward to hearing about all the fun you have been having on vacation, and maybe some pictures of where you were visiting ? Just really GLAD that everything is fine and you are having fun with your family.

    Last thing you bought

    I got a small rechargeable stick vacuum cleaner. It can be used with the long handle like a regular upright vacuum, or you can use the cleaning attachments with it like a handheld vacuum. So far, I really like it ! Since it is cordless, I can just grab it and clean up whatever needs vacuumed...

    What's your Weather like today

    I do remember Howdy Doody ! We did not have a television when I was growing up, until I was on my teens, so I missed most of the cartoon and other television shows that kids watched back then. It seems like the show was sponsored by Wonder Bread, and I remember some kind of Howdy Doody coloring...

    What's your Weather like today

    I do not remember a princess with that name at all. Was this someone from a Disney movie ? I have always loved all of the seasons, although now that I am older, I do not like the snow and cold anymore, especially like we had in northern Idaho. Here, we are above zero most of the winter, snow is...

    What's your Weather like today

    This has been us for the last while, too ! It has been the Alabama Monsoon season here, for sure. Lots of rain, and warm weather, so humidity into the 90+ percentages on some days. We have had the dehumidifier on in the front room to even be able to breathe. It has not rained (yet) today, and...

    Last thing you've done when offline?

    I really love my battery weedeater, too ! I used to use those FEatherlights, but eventually even those were too heave for me, and I was not strong enough to start the gas engine, so Bobby had to help me. The same with my Ryobi rototiller. So, now I have the small battery ones. I am out of...
