Mon, Jan 11, 2021:  The Glades RV Park:  Ran some errands in LaBelle this morning.  On the way we stopped at the office and signed our new lease for this year.  On the way back from LaBelle we picked up some lunch.  Stuffed ourselves.  Saw in the news that the PGA has cancelled their contract with Trump’s Bedminster Golf Club.  Said they didn’t want their brand to be tainted by playing there—or something like that.  YAY!  77 here today.  Really nice out there.

Sun, Jan 10, 2021:  The Glades RV Park:  Got the laundry out of the way early.  Quite cold this morning.  But really sunny.  After lunch I ventured out for a walk—albeit a short one.  I must admit I miss getting together with friends.  But when you see people suffering from this virus and dealing with not being able to pay their rent or buy food, I get over it really quick.   And so far we’re both healthy.  60 here today.

Out for my walk.

 

Sat, Jan 9, 2021:  The Glades RV Park:  Good old fox news.  Tucker Carlson said on his show that the taking over of the Capitol building by that mob was not an insurrection.  Just a political demonstration gone awry.  Really?  Not from what I saw.  And no racism.  Really?  A thug was in there sporting a confederate flag. Fox news is spewing whatever the coward-in-chief spews. And the people that listen to it are hearing exactly what they believe.  Mostly lies and exaggerations.  So, the coward-in-chief supporters are out there bullying anyone that challenges the pathetic figure in the WH.  People should be really worried about this.  A chilly but sunny day today.  Have been hunkered down inside.  60s today.

Fri, Jan 8, 2021:  The Glades RV Park:  The debacle continues.  The coward-in-chief made a video (under duress) stating there would be a peaceful transfer of power.  He never said anything about the capital police officer who lost his life.  He only made the video so more of his remaining cabinet members wouldn’t bail.  He also said he called for the National Guard right away.  THAT IS ANOTHER LIE!  Pence activated the National Guard. The coward also said he will not attend President Biden’s inauguration.  I say good!  Who wants him there!  But President Biden said he didn’t care personally, but it would be good for the country to see a peaceful transfer of power.  Do you think the coward cares anything about this country?  Of course not!  I also saw something about a physical confrontation between Trump supporters and other passengers on American Airlines!  Why do these people still support him!  He’s done nothing but initiate and spread lies from day one.  I guess these people have no conscience or no moral compass.  I’ve kept my mouth shut for four years while his supporters have spread vitriol on social media.  And for those complaining about Democrats—I bet you like your Social Security and Medicare.  A friend of mine suggested they take the coward-in-chief, his twisted family, and all his supporters and put them on a remote island somewhere.  He could be their dictator-in-chief and they could not wear masks and just spread covid and fight each other.  Great idea!  Okay, I’m done—for now.  Chilly and windy today. 

Enjoying a nice dinner in Door County in better times--pre-covid and pre-Trump.

 

Thu, Jan 7, 2021:  The Glades RV Park:  The bleeding continues in the so-called Trump administration.  Good!  The other republicans who went along with the prevaricator-in-chief are just as guilty.  Hope they get their due.  Most of them have no balls.  Hope Josh Hawley’s career is over.  But people have a short memory.

Wed, Jan 6, 2021:  The Glades RV Park:  I was prepared for the debacle in Congress today with the contingent of republican senators objecting to the electoral college votes.  But was not prepared for the group of thugs that stormed the capital—incited by the pathetic figure in the White House.  Unbelieveable!  The last four years have been so full of vitriol, lies and conspiracy theories.  Looking forward to the next four years which hopefully will be much kinder and more respectful.  The republican party is a hot mess.  The prevaricator-in-chief doesn’t give a damn about all the Covid deaths or the people who are suffering in this country.  He’s just having a tantrum about the fact that HE LOST.  All he cares about is himself.  Apparently, someone was shot inside the capital building.  He doesn’t care about that either.  He’s STILL saying the election was rigged and stolen from him. He just needs to pull up his big boy pants and go away! 

God Bless America!!! 

Tue, Jan 5, 2021:  The Glades RV Park:  Got up, turned the heat on and then back to bed until it warmed up enough for morning ablutions.  On the way to Clewiston late morning we stopped at the office and picked up our mail.  We heard a guy telling the office manager that they were giving covid vaccinations at the health center there—and no lines.  But I think we need a reservation.  So, I’ll check that out on their web site.  Stopped and picked up some lunch on our way back, which was smelling really good in the half hour it took us to get home.  Mike is having issues with his hearing aid, so we’re heading to Ft. Myers tomorrow to see the Belltone guy.  I made pasta yesterday for dinner, so we’ll be eating left-overs of that for a while.  Upper 60s today.

Bill out for a walk with Abby and Daisy the cat.
