Granted I have only lived in the US again, for a couple of months, but I really don't understand the electric bills at my house. ( ALL ELECTRIC EVERYTHING!). Nov and Dec $350. Jan $675. February has been just as cold as Jan yet my mid month alert was for a bill of only $250

I normally don't pay much attention to Apple Health on my phone, but this morning over coffee I got a notification and I looked at it for the first time. Since moving back to the US, I burn 300 calories per day less than I used to, and I walk 5 km less PER DAY than I did living in Zurich.

The one thing that still gives me a glimmer of hope that we may survive the next four years is that Trump apparently learned nothing from his first stint as President. I was expecting the chaos, but I thought the chaos would be carried out competently.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=uL6g... I need someone to help me take this idea and downsize it, Maybe ROOMBA will work with. A ROOMBA for a home garden it is a great idea!

So let me get the new financial model straight: Increase our deficit by $4.5 TRILLION with tax cuts. This is offset by $1.5 TRILLION in spending cuts and another $2 TRILLION in cuts from Mandatory Spending (Medicare, Medicad, SNAP, and Social Security)? This math doesn't math to me.

No words needed.

""This is not the camps," Hegseth reiterated. "This is a temporary transit which is already the mission of Naval Station Guantanamo Bay, where we can plus-up thousands — and tens of thousands, if necessary... " For some reason I am not comforted by this statement.

Glad to see some people still read the constitution

Heading North for an ice fishing weekend.

The fact that a Senator can look at Pete Hegseth and say this man has the experience to run the Department of Defense confirms that intelligence is not a requirement to be a United States Senator.

And they really are

This is why I HATE having to leave a phone number when I buy something. I bought a rolling duffel bag 30 minutes ago. 30 seconds ago, I got a text from the company stating "the gear you were checking out is going quick don't let someone else beat you..."

Happy 85th Birthday to my Mom!

@gtconway.bsky.social @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social Are you going to bring back a George Explains it all to Sarah to explain this Aileen cannon ruling? I can see how she could rule on the documents case, but not a case where she had no involvement.

Lived through a lot of Wisconsin snow storms but I never stayed this warm clearing the driveway. 😀

Only back in Southern Indiana for about 9 weeks but I am regretting my decision to sell my snow blower 5 years ago instead of putting it in storage. 😂🤣

My favorite barn cats have come by to say hello this morning. The one on the left is Sauber. The one on the right is Schnurrbart.

I didn’t think it was possible for the most ugly vehicle in the world to be even more ugly. I was wrong.

Saying Goodbye to my wife for another 2 months today. The reunions are great but the goodbyes suck. Counting down the days until October. 😀

Starting off the New Year with pancakes and sausage for the family that is here.

I wonder what I need to do to refresh my social media feeds to see all the Alabama apologies to IU now that the Tide has shown they didn’t belong in the CFP? #RollTide

My kids bought my wife a birdfy feeder so she can be a part of southern indiana while finishing up her last year in Switzerland. I think I will enjoy it just as much.
