Wife and I tried signing up for the Covid vaccine since the governor opened up our age group to it today but apparently there's not enough vaccine to go around because the first available dates are at the end of the month. Krogers and Rite Aid are the only local Pharmacy's where you don't have to register for a store account just to get a vaccine. Guess we'll just wait then. Checked out a couple more houses. One needed almost a total gut renovation. The other looked like the owner tried to cover some stuff up since they had wall texture applied to everything except the floors, even the crown molding was covered in it. Then they painted it dark gray with white ceilings though they obviously didn't use tape as some of the ceiling by the wall was gray. Have a great weekend everyone

Y'all might want to grab the dvd sets while you can because they will most likely be removed from the shelves soon.

It's actually Happy St. Patrick's day Roger. MeTV played a bunch of St. Patricks day cartoons yesterday morning, I had no idea there was so many made, most of them were Looney Tunes.

Dream

Atlanta. Saturdays Truck and Xfinity races are on FS1, Sunday's Cup race is on Fox.

My favorite episodes are the one where Barney buys the motorcycle with a sidecar for patrols , the haunted house and when Barney buys that junk car from the old swindler lady. Every time those episodes repeat on MeTV I watch them.

I think it's due to all the changes they made the past decade to try and make it more 'entertaining'. The COT car sure as heck didn't help either. I found it funny Sunday that they kept putting the #23 on camera no matter where he was in the field. I know McDonald's is one if their partners but dang they missed some good racing keeping a camera on that car.

I can't believe they didn't all go cancel culture nuts on the Grammy's the other night when they allowed that WAP song to be sung on there, talk about gross.

Yeah the housing market is crazy here. One realtor they interviewed said he's never seen anything like it in all his years. Said he schedules open houses then has to cancel them because the owners get a cash bid right away. Some of the local home inspectors are actually hurting for money because they're not doing inspections like they normally would be scheduled to do.

Thanks but I think we'd like to stick around NW Ohio. You'll probably see some of my Tennessee relatives if you hold an open house lol. Got a lot of cousins down there.

Gonna miss hearing that voice. He definitely added some excitement to races. Martin Truex jr won the Instacart 500 in Phoenix Sunday. The Penske racing trio started off strong even finishing 1,2,3 in the first stage but Joey Logano was the only Penske car that kept up with the track changes except at the end. Three Hendrick motorsports cars had to start from the back due inspection issues but they finished strong within the top 10. Top 10 1 Martin Truex jr 2 Joey Logano 3 Denny Hamlin 4 Brad Keselowski 5 Chase Elliot 6 Kevin Harvick 7 Kyle Larson 8 William Byron 9 Christopher Bell 10 Ryan Blaney Seems tv ratings have hit a plateau, staying around 4.3 million viewers every Sunday for the cup races. That's the good news, bad news is if this keeps up it will be the least watched season since the early 2000's

If it weren't for social media I don't think there would be a "cancel culture" but since a small percentage of people can make so much "noise" company's feel they have to react otherwise they'll be branded offensive for life on social media. Looks like Sharon Osbourne is next in the Cancel Culture's crosshair's , I don't watch The Talk but I seen the clip and it's hilarious how fast it got spun around on her.

Thank you . She's much better. She stuffed herself the other night with fried chicken and a salad. First time she cleaned her plate in more than a week. Read a local news article yesterday about other buyer's struggles trying to buy a house. Comforting to know we're not going he only ones struggling against the out of state jackals buying up all the housing. One couple have been out bid on 32 houses . It be nice if it was a level playing field where home buyers had an actual shot in hell against the investors/flippers throwing briefcases of cash at sellers. And since it's a cash deal it nullify's the need for an inspection and appraisal which mortgage buyers have to get so of course sellers will take the cash deal 99% of the time. Looks like my dad and the neighbor finally come to an agreement on the bushes. The neighbor got an estimate on replacing them and she said it was outrageous so she's just going to have the damaged ones removed and replace them with some other plant. At least I won't be hearing my dad whine about it anymore, that got old two weeks ago and he still goes on about it every single day. I assume when my dad was a kid he whined until my grandparents gave in or something. Even my one uncle the other day said it's time my dad grew up and took some responsibility lol, at least I'm not the only one in the family saying it. I always wondered why Philip was called Prince and not King, that's interesting.

Got outbid on another house this morning. It was our first time at an auction so it was an interesting experience. The auctioneer never even got down to our max. Soon as he came down to $100k a guy bid. There were about half dozen of us there to bid on the house but in the end only two people bid on it. One guy kept upping his bid $5k till the other couple dropped out. I think it was a bleeping flipper. Those bleepers are buying up houses like wildfire around here. People wanting to buy a house can't catch a break because those suckers swoop in 1st day a house comes on the market and puts in a cash offer that 9 times out if ten the seller accepts. It's become such an issue that one of the local news stations even did a story about flippers buying up the majority of the houses around here a few days ago. Would've been a nice little slice of country heaven.

Wife's doing much better today. No headache today and no more nausea. Even got her out of the house, went to the bank and store. Things between my dad and his neighbor apparently have gotten worse lol. I and my uncle's just don't understand why he won't just pay for 2 new bushes for her and be done with it. Apparently he's willing to let this go all the way to court if it does come to it. Sorry to hear Roger. Prayers and good wishes to you.

Took the wife to the ER last night since her weeklong headache wouldn't go away and she puked. The tests they did all came back normal. The doc said she's got some viral infection but unsure of what it is but said she's probably in the last stage of it since her fever broke Monday night. They gave her a headache 'cocktail' which seemed to have worked, hopefully it won't come back today, and something for the nausea. They didn't do a covid test since she got one Sunday and supposedly it's the most accurate test available at the moment. I hope she gets better. I'm so used to being the sick one and don't like seeing her sick instead.

Kyle Larson won the Pennzoil 400 at Las Vegas yesterday in only his 4th start in the Hendrick Motorsports #5 Chevy. Him and Brad Keselowski had the dominant cars of the race though Larson's was just a wee bit better. Hendricks, Penske and Gibbs teams took all but the 10th spot which Erik Jones nabbed in the #43 RPM Chevy. Hendrick motorsports is now just 3 wins away from tying most team wins which is still held by Petty Enterprises. Appears there might be a rivalry building in the Gibbs stable between Denny Hamlin and Martin Truex jr. The past few races they've been racing and blocking each other like they're not on the same team. I expect Martin will eventually get tired of Denny's antics and bump and run him out of the way. Top 10 1 Kyle Larson 2 Brad Keselowski 3 Kyle Busch 4 Denny Hamlin 5 Ryan Blaney 6 Martin Truex jr 7 Christopher Bell 8 William Byron 9 Joey Logano 10 Erik Jones

Cancel Culture just cancelled Pepe Le Pew. He's been removed from the new Space Jam reboot movie though "officially" it has nothing to do with a NY Times columnist basically calling the cartoon character a serial sexual predator in a recent op-ed. Funny my take away from Pepe Le Pew cartoons was if you don't heed a woman's no, boulders, safe's and other various objects will hit you in the head. Wife had another lousy weekend, same symptoms as last weekend. Took her to urgent care last night for a covid test but the results came back negative. They think it might be the flu. I used to be the one that always got sick while the wife strutted around like Wonder Woman never getting sick. Wish there was something else I could do for her.
