On or about February 10 my spirits rise, sometimes quickly and other times like a thick maple syrup flowing from the bottle. The sun is setting a wee bit later which gives off a grain of hope.
It's a big day in our home. On January 14 Charlie celebrated his 7th birthday. We had cake and all that jazz. Today is even a better day. It was two years ago today my buddy came to live with us. I'll never forget it. My son brought him up from Cincinnati and they arrived at 1 pm. The first order of business in our relationship for Chaz was to snarl at me. Then we played Tug 'O War with one of his ropes and all was good in the land of milk and honey. Today is more important to me than his birthday. I have noticed he's gotten more gray around the muzzle and somewhat chubbier(my fault) but all and all he's the same old guy.
I've done a wonderful job of ignoring the shenanigans going on in the epicenter of our Banana Republic. I did read JoeBama's son in law is coming under fire for money garnered from a health care outfit in China. the more things change the more they change the same. Ilhan Omar's husband's consulting firm was paid by her $2.9 million dollars for campaign work. Shocking? Not really. It's Washington D.C.
I was complaining about the temperatures yesterday. I don't like it when they drop to plus 7 F. Then I looked at what's going on at our Minnesot lake home. Uh, minus 31 F sort of put things in perspective. I remember when The Queen, a few years ago, thought it'd be fun to go to the lake for a week in January. Fat chance of that. The coldness goes to show the strength and sustainability of our mammal friends. They actually survive and thrive during these periods. It's no wonder they procreate so vigorously in March and April. They're thrilled and exhilarated to be alive. Let the good times roll.
Universities across the country have gone bonkers in restricting the lives of their students during this panicdema. At the Univ of Wisconsin-Madison the youngsters are required to take a COVID test every four days.

Reverting to the Banana Republic theory: You know you live in one when the head of the second impeachment of Trump is headed by Democrat, Eric Swalwell. He's the dude who was caught banging a Chinese commuist, Fang Fang. The secrets she could tell!
Do you have a Smart Phone? Does a fat dog pass gas? I answered my own question. Anyway, I've been waatching many movies on TUBI TV. It's an app on my phone. It has hundreds of movies; some good, some not so. But the best part is they're free. For me that's a winner.
I'm off to my psychologist this morning. I love the guy. We're kindred spirits. Wouldn't you enjoy driving a liberal more insane than ever? Tell them you're a believer in Q or QAnon or WWG1WGA. They'll look at you like you just walked off the Good Ship Lollipop. In the first place I do believe in so-called conspiracy theories; some of them anyway. For instance, do you think I'm nutso because I don't follow the line that Lee H. Oswald acted alone. Congressmen, recently, were required to CYA in saying Q is a mind job of the Right. Now, I'm willing to guess that the very great majority of the American people know as much about QAnon as they do The Talmud. Whenever Q is brought up in front of me I'll act like my closet is fulll of Q clothes and I pray at the altar of whatever god they(we) worship. It's fun.
Remember Charlie today. He's a good boy for a dog. Better than most.
