Friday, night; Saturday

Friday, night.  Got my weight lifting routine set up.  Went well.  Have to figure something out for my legs?  Trying a touch of cinnamon and coconut oil in my morning drink to see if they might help with leveling my sugars.  Will see.  Ozempic helps with my sugar cravings, guess with my weight control.  Now, have to see if I can start losing weight???  Movies and working on some videos, regular stuff.  Until tomorrow, YES, the Mutt is OK.  The bum.  Finished my video for the day, videos provided by Bridget.  The Mutt is a pig.  Haha.  And my 2nd profession is a Doorman.  Ugh.  Sucked it up and bought "She Wore A Yellow Ribbon."  Not on sale but had $3.00 credit.  $7.99 ain't bad, but won't be buying anymore unless I have credits.  This is the only movie I would pay this much for.  Tomorrow.  Slept well.  Got up and did my meal replacement drink, worked on my class attendances.  Naturally, the MUTT!!!  Fed him a little, little later, he wanted outside.  We went outside, mail lady was delivering my next package of my meal replacement stuff.  Put stuff inside and, then, we went outside.  Started cutting grass.  It was hot, but overcast and wind was blowing some.  After cutting a little, I put THE MUTT inside.  Cut about half the yard.  Sun came out and the wind died down.  Anyway, it worked out great.  Came inside, sent out some notices to students who have recorded attendance, yet, online.  Going to do the normal stuff, now, email, news, movies, playing around with the internet and Gemini.  Might look into doing a video.  Have few bible quotes to look at.  Even the bible tells you that God doesn't stop with the bible and scriptures.  We ALL have our own Life Paths.  There are many branches and forks, but we decide, free will, which branch or fork to take and that is our path.  Of course, many outside forces, Satan and other bad people, can influence our decisions.  God only prays that you listen to your heart and soul and the GOoD you have inside you.  Well, have a great rest of the day, great night.  Sleep well, dream well.  Have a great Sunday.  Enjoy His day of rest.  Take care, be safe, God bless.  New shoes, new insoles, and a footrest coming in tomorrow.  The Mutt is waiting, haha.  He just barks at the window if he sees anyone.

Thursday, night, TGIF...

Thursday, night, TGIF...  Prices and costs are getting higher.  Escrow has shot up a lot.  If costs ain't higher for something, than chances are the quality isn't quite as good or you ain't getting as much.  Whew!  That dog, Mutt, may have to start eating regular dog food everyday.  Oh, My!  He won't be happy.  Haha.  "Down Periscope."  Tomorrow.  Back from my video adventure.  Oh, that Mutt.  Wasn't planning on going outside.  About 98 degrees.  Hot, but the wind was starting to blow a little.  Nice and beautiful.  He enjoyed it.  Now, he is eating me out of house and home, again.  Haha.  It is so nice not needing a walking stick or cane.  Feels read GREAT!  School stuff is mainly done.  For the weekend, need to get ready for Monday, but shouldn't be much.  My homeowner's went up a lot, nearly doubled, but called insurance people and they will be looking for something cheaper.  My mortgage server, whew, their set up is difficult but finally found what I needed online.  Sleeping better, feeling better, BUT... haha.  Hope Penelope gets the stuff I send her.  Guess people believe the SH they read on the internet or that other people are telling them about me.  I don't know.  People tend to believe the worst in other people and I can't blame them too much.  Well, do have a nice afternoon, nice evening, and a wonderful night.  Sleep well, and cool, haha.  Dream even better.  Do dream more, but thankfully, I don't remember them too much.  Take care, be safe.  God bless.  Chance's performance in the video leaves a little, haha.  Dogs.  Just having some fun.  Have a nice weekend.

Wednesday evening, Thursday.

Wednesday evening, Thursday.   Had to go take the Mutt to the mailbox.  He loves riding in the car, for a short time.  I keep telling him the squirrel know when he is coming.  They keep an eye out for him all the time.  He has a bad reputation for being so mean and tough.  Haha.  It makes him happy.  No mail.  Didn't think they would be.  Going to start drinking hot tea some more.  Have a bunch.  Later.  Oh, received my goat milk stuff: soap and moisturizer.  Hope the soap will help with my skin itching.  It isn't too bad, just now and then, but hope to stop it.  The moisturizer for keeping my skin smooth, hahahaha, got to keep those winkles away.  No, hope it helps with the itching, too.  Hope to get to bed early tonight, getting up earlier tomorrow.  Well, may not get to bed as early as I thought.  Been trying to get some plug-ins to work with my photo editor.  Been a couple of hours about.  Finally, got it to work.  A ton of new stuff to experiment with, haha.  The old "Parent Trap."  Tomorrow.  "Two Mules for Sister Sara."  Kinda cute.  Nice, wonderful day.  Classes went well and smooth.  Finished for the day.  Now, to wait until Monday.  "Crocodile Dundee II."  Going to relax and just play around with the internet.  Little research into a couple of things.  Email, news, etc, as well.  Maybe, checkout Google Photos.  Me and Penelope had some great times on the back porch.  Do like many of my flower photos.  Do have great evening and night.  Sleep well, dream well.  Take care, be safe.  God bless.  Lectures have been nice.  OH, TGIF for tomorrow.

Wednesday, evening

Wednesday, evening.  HOW DID I GET A DOG!!!  UGH!!!  No, seriously, he is a good dog.  A wimp, but sweet.  He needs someone to take care of him.  Can only do my best.  Nice day at school.  Didn't have to go in until later.  Tomorrow, will be earlier.  Am lecturing better than I ever did before.  And the podium computer is working better.  Learning to manage my diabetes better.  By time.  Learning not to push myself so much.  Had to push myself more when I was injured and crippled up with my feet or I wouldn't have never made it through the ordeal.  I couldn't let up.  Now, getting stronger and it is still somewhat difficult, but don't have to push myself so much.  Close to 100, but not quite.  Heat didn't feel so quite bad.  Still waiting and hoping for a nice long autumn.  No plans for later.  Just a nice, quiet evening and nice.  Mutt just finished his dinner, treats, haha.  He did eat his regular dog food last night.  We waits about every 3 or 4 days and then eats his regular dog food.  Oh, boy.  Do have a nice evening, a wonderful night.  May the angels sleep beside you and do dream well.  Take care, be safe.  God bless.

Monday, night, and Tuesday

Monday, night.  Testing out some ear phones I have been having around for awhile.  Might actually start using them.  Pretty comfortable.  Listening to FB and my tv at the same time.  Might use them at school.  Will see.  Seems like they will stay on without much trouble.  Well, I will only use one at a time. Did change my weights around.  Did a little, but not much.  Lifting better than I thought I would do, haha.  Slowly, but surely, I hope, to start doing more.  Listing to some old football stories by someone on Johnny Carson FB.  An old Baltimore Colt player.  Likeable guy.  It's done.  MI5, "Rogue Nation," almost over, then bed.  Mutt is keeping it warm, haha.  Tomorrow.  Tuesday.  Got home from work and picked up mail.  Got two dividend checks for $200+ from my car insurance company.  Can't complain about that.  Nice day at school.  Went smoother than yesterday, but sat more in the 2nd class, haha.  And a couple of students kept me after class with issues and one just doing some talking, but one issue was solved.  The Mutt got fed.  Ready to put in attendance and update it.  Will have to do it until next Tuesday.  Going to enjoy the rest of the day with maybe some weight lifting if I dare, haha.  Still some way before getting as strong as I should be, but getting there.  Take care, be safe.  Enjoy the afternoon, evening and night.  Sleep a restful sleep, sweet dreams.  God bless.

Sunday, evening - Monday

CHALLENGE FOR THE DAY:  "Find the Goober in the photos?"  It is difficult.  Sunday, evening.  Close to 2 hours or more trying to get my printer set up on my new computer.  HP can be a b****.  That and the Mutt.  He hasn't stopped eating for a few hours now, haha.  Now, it is thundering.  Chance isn't being too bad with that.  Did get the school laptop charged and ready.  Downloading some files on it for backup, if I need it.  Don't think they are going to change my classroom.  Hope it can sit 30 people (have 3 classes in the same room).  Still learning how to use the touch pad on the laptop, ugh.  Haha.  "The Cutting Edge."  Gotta watch putting too much flavor into my cappuccino, haha.  Just a touch.  Later.  It is so nice being able to dry myself with my bath towel and not worry about falling so much.  The roundness at the bottom of the foot still is a minor issue, but just have to take it slow.  Have some printouts that I have to make at school, but basically, ready for class.  "Ghost Rider."  Going to try some goat milk soap and lotion.  See if they might help with my skin itch and, maybe, try with my face and skin for softening.  Can't take it with you, haha.  Tomorrow.  Great day at school.  A few little details got me, but overall, very nice day.  I thought class started at 10:30, it started at 12.  But turned out OK, because it gave me time to get ready for class and other little minor things.  Got my podium set up and made sure everything worked, though it took a little time to get adjusted to it.  Things change, haha.  Really, pleasant day.  Think I am ready for tomorrow, two classes back to back.  Do have a great evening and night.  May the boogeyman not get you.  Sweet dreams.  Take care, be safe.  God bless.  I am reaching the point where I feel God all around me.  Might be my imagination, but it feels good.  So, comforting.

Saturday evening - Sunday, 8/23

Found out I have two TikTok accounts.  Two or three months ago, they had me create a new one because they told me my old one was deleted.  Apparently, not.  Oh, boy.  Haha.  Still trying to get ready for Monday.  Adding a little flavoring to my cappuccino does give it a little boost, haha.  On the edge of getting tired, haha.  Do have to start working out some soon???  The thing about history is some of the heroic, unbelievable stories you hear or read about.  Makes living day to day seem like child play.  We should appreciate living day to day more and to think about others, with family being first.  If you can't love family first, can you truly love others or are you just pretending to be good.  Fooling yourself.  Maybe if each one in a family thought of each other the same way with love, it would make all their lives better.  But people will be people.  They talk about forgiving but, in general, they are more forgiving to other people than for family.  Sad when family members think more of others than their own family, but only a few rare families really put family members first.  Anyway, I heard, listened to, a nice story about a B-29 over Japan.  Its miracle journey back to a safe base.  Put in online for a new school ID.  Put in a photo with it.  Not sure if I needed to.  Decided to use it for my new profile photo for my personal info and for my Canvas classes.  Well, until tomorrow, Sunday.  God's day of rest.  Later.  Garbage can is still full.  Hope they take it tomorrow?  Ugh.  Not a big thing for me, but aggravating.  A whole week of sitting full.  Family.  Just another something that makes the world turn 'round.  Chance loves going for a ride, though a short one.  It is hot.  He trots here and there but doesn't take long before he is ready for inside, haha.  He is a good dog.  Still need to do some things for tomorrow.  Don't like hauling the school's laptop around, it is heavier and bigger than my iPad but it will connect to the podium if I ever need it, I think, haha.  Will see.  Its bag is different, too.  Will see.  Slept well.  Us old people do need more rest, haha.  Downloaded a ton of photos, but for another day.  Just don't want to deal with the school stuff, but here goes.  Do have a nice Sunday.  Take care, be safe.  Have a great afternoon, evening, and night.  Sleep well, dream well.  God bless.  Have a great week.
