Did y’all know they have a new Bachelor program out now? It’s for senior citizens. The Bachelor is 70 or maybe a little older and all the women are around the same age as well. So far, it looks like they’re all holding up pretty well but I wonder if any of them will get distraught and end up having a fatal heart attack. Or maybe someone will break a hip or something.

I guess when we have the elderly vying for the White House, they figured “The Golden Bachelor” would be a crowd pleaser but seriously, I’m not interested in seeing all those wrinkles in bikinis.

I like waking up in a panic thinking I have to go to work and then realizing it's Saturday.  And yesterday, I found a 20 - in my wallet of all places -  after having thought I was flat broke for a couple days. Now I don't even need it....but I'm glad I have it.
I’ve done that. I took a nap after work one time and when I woke up, it was around 7. Knowing I couldn’t get ready in time I called my boss to tell them I was gonna be late because I’d overslept. She said, “Are you planning to oversleep in the morning”? She didn’t quite understand. That’s when I realized what I’d done and we laughed.

Finding the money is always a pleasure!!

It’s still fun to find. However, you kinda wanna kick yourself for not finding it when it was still a $20 or maybe even a $10. Just be glad it wasn’t an IOU.

There’s a lot of crazy stuff out these days. Netflix has an abundance of love/dating type shows and I’ve had a blast binging on some of them. It kinda makes you wonder if conventional dating relationships are a thing of the past.

The CATS play at 7:30 this evening. They got obliterated by Georgia last week. I expected a loss but Lord have mercy, that was a complete beat down with no mercy even when Georgia had their 3rd string in. The final score was 51-13.

The Bengals are up against Seattle tomorrow at 1:00. I’m hoping for a W but we’ll see. I think Joe’s calf is finally healing. He had some beautiful passes last week against the Cardinals. JaMar Chase was phenomenal!

Well, that’s my football summary for now.

I went to work one day and found out I’m not scheduled that day.

Howdy Folks! I’ve had the weirdest 24 hours and I’m still a bit confused. I fell asleep yesterday evening sometime but I have no idea what time it was. I guess I was super tired. Anyway, I woke up and fixed some coffee, took my shower, and basically got ready for the day. I opened the front door only to discover it was dark outside. That was a really strange feeling. I checked the clock and it was like 12:45 or something. I sat down with my coffee trying to figure out what was going on. I checked all the clocks in my house including my cell phone and iPad. After a few sips of coffee I discovered it was A.M. and suddenly realized it was the middle of the night or middle of the morning whichever. After having coffee and being up, there was no way for me to go back to sleep. I did a few things around the house and sat down to watch TV which usually puts me to sleep. I finally did fall asleep sometime around 7 or 8 and woke up again at 12:30 PM. I have felt completely out of sorts since.

My synopsis is the elderly revert back to infancy and get their days and nights mixed up all over again.

Hope y’all have had a better day or two whichever it may be.
Howdy, hope you get to sleeping better.

All this war is really disturbing. I normally don't pay attention or care at all because war is such a common thing. But when it's people that look like everyone I know and am related to it's different. It's shocking.

Judging by the way thing have been going. I think the Republicans in Congress want to abolish Social Security and replace it with the powerball.  Your odds of retiring are one in several trillion.

Terrorists Take Over Michigan Village:

"Hamtramck, Michigan
CNN
 —
For decades, Hamtramck was known as Michigan’s “Little Warsaw,” a city of just two square miles of tightly-packed houses and factories, spitting distance from downtown Detroit.

The Polish Cardinal Karol Wojtyla visited once, back in 1969, before he became Pope. A statue of Wojtyla, arms outstretched, still casts a shadow over what’s now called Pope Park, where a huge mural of Polish folk dancers stretches almost an entire city block.

In the 99 years since its incorporation, every mayor of Hamtramck has been Polish American. That ends January 2, in Hamtramck’s centenary year, when Amer Ghalib will be inaugurated, along with an entirely Muslim city council.

Hamtramck will become the first known city in the US with a government made up entirely of Muslims, according to the Muslim Public Affairs Council, which says it has no record of any other such administration."
