Wednesday Equals Work


Yes, this morning the alarm went off as usual and old Speedy once more rolled out of bed to start another day of w**k. I don't even like to say the word anymore. It is 6:03 now and I have taken my shower and made my coffee so I decided to set down here at the computer and speak to all of my family and friends out there in cyber-land.


Did you watch the debates last night...what a waste of time! The same talking points we have heard for the last 40 years. I'm going to fix the economy...I'm going to lower taxes....I'm going to fix Social Security. Don't you just get tired of listening to the garbage that comes out of these politicians? Do you really think that they are going to do any of this? It will be business as usual with the Special Interest groups and big business running this country. We the people are no more. What we need is what they say we need.


The government managed our Social Security funds into the toilet...now they want to run Health Care??? What sense does that make. They took over our Education System now they want to oversee the housing market. I am telling you right now if we don't get the government out of running non government entities we are going to be in real trouble. What am I saying ...going to be?? We are in big trouble.


I guess the only reason I keep going on about this is because it effects us...Fulltimers... so much

Government regulations are choking us all in every aspect of our lives. I hope that all of us are spared much of this government intervention in our lives on the road...this is the last real freedom the American people have...to travel freely around this country without too much government regulation....then there is California and some of the other states that regulate what you can drive etc...LOL OK there is regulations on us....


I am going to shut up now and try to think happy thoughts...can I find one??


I have a repairmen coming out Thursday to fix my dryer. It stopped heating. I have read that the 110 dryers and Hot Water Heaters burn out elements much faster than the 220 units. They pull more amps and create more heat and burn out quicker. Oh well I will see how much it cost to be replaced. I got a price on the element at $40.00 and I know that the service charge is $50.00 so that plus the labor....$$$$ should make me squeak a little. We will see. I still have not replaced my element in the Hot Water Heater and I know that I will have to do that soon....


OK so much for all that. I have to go and fix my lunch now. Get my stuff together and head out on the highway. I want all of you to have a wonderful day and search out a bit of happiness and then share it with Sherri and I...

Amen brother Speedy, I could only watch about 20 minutes of the debate, I thought it was a rerun. It's not to hot to change out that element, lol.

Stay Safe

Agree Speedy, just reruns. We hope to get our place sold, at least you're that much more ahead of us. We sure miss you in the chat, it's not the same without you. Maybe we should all join Sandra, that would be a "change".

Still at home at 6:03? Heck, I had been at work this morning for 15 minutes by that time - and that is with a 30 mile commute.

No, I didn't waste my time last night. As soon as it came on we switched to the Animal Planet, which was a show the DW doesn't like so we then switched to Dirty Jobs (even though the DW says they were reruns).

On a blog I read (Old Fat Man Adventures) Barney stated that his investments are down 43% from when he started full timing one year ago.
