It's about time.

Many of you can relate to Working long hours at your career. Raising your families. Buying a home and paying all the bills related to being homeowners and parents. We're now retired and don't need all that work and expense. Now "It's about time" and what we do to follow our dreams.

Getting Things Done, Changing Weather, “Good Trouble” Another Milestone Coming.

 Our Location today is at Windsor, Ontario.

Last night we simply took a Regular Strength Tylenol before going to bed. I had both the Old and New CPAP Machines set up and ready on my nightstand. We both slept like rocks and the New CPAP worked flawlessly. We also had the Balcony Door and Bedroom Window wide open throughout the night so we had plenty of Fresh Air.

First thing I did this morning was to get things ready for breakfast before settling in on my Computer. After being there an Hour I opened the Bedroom Blind. A Half Hour later I had to pull out all the stops and Kiss Kathy to show it was time to start her day. Before we even finished our breakfast I had finished over half of my morning reading.

What we had most of the day.

With the Wind Gusts forecasted to be around Twenty-Five MPH but the Humidex forecasted to be above 90 F (32 C) we again put off going for our bicycle ride.

Wanting something different for lunch we sliced a couple of Brats length-wise and fried them in the pan. We had Hamburger Buns so with them being sliced like that they were the perfect fit. Kathy also made up a dessert plate with Cookies, Grapes and Chocolate Pudding Cups.

After finishing our Tea together Kathy wanted to rearrange things in the Storage Room in our Apartment. Many times I have offered to help but she always refuses. While she started her task I cleaned the Kitchen and Dishes making certain everything was put away.

I had Planned to exercise yesterday but we all know what happens with Plans. My lunch had settled by the time I finished in the kitchen so I took my time working out. Taking time to breathe, hydrate and towel down. By the time Kathy finished for the day I had done Two Sets of Double Repetitions and One Set of Single Repetitions. We were both in need of showers.

One thing a lot of people don’t realize that when you exercise your Metabolism continues to race for a while afterwards. Without waiting I started cooking a Medium Sized Store Bought Thin Crust Pizza for our supper and topped it off by having Carbonated Juice (Fake Wine) for our beverage. With Bacon, Ham, Mushroom and Pepperoni for toppings we were well satisfied.

On the 6 o’clock Local News we learned of more Coronavirus Cases throughout the Province of Ontario and again our Area was the lowest of all. Our weather will bring Rain tomorrow with Fall like temperatures starting on Tuesday. We won’t see warm temperatures like today until late Spring next year. There was also mention of a report about how little the Federal Taxes that President Trump has paid over the last Fifteen Years.

We turned to ABC to hear that in 2016 and 2017 he only paid $750.00 each year but none for Fifteen Years before that. The president said it was Fake News. Before I retired I was paying that much a week.

We later watched a special called “John Lewis Good Trouble”. Even though I am a Canadian I remember many of those Protests and fights for equality. The sad part is that all the gains made over the last Sixty Years not only for Race are being dismantled by the present administration. SHAME!

Tomorrow I will reach another Milestone. Tell you about it then. Thank you for following along and feel free to leave a comment.

Be Safe and Enjoy!

It’s about time.

  1. I wonder how much taxes Obama paid? Or Clinton ... or George Bush? How come no one asked about them? All of them have businesses where they can write off absolutely everything. Besides that, Trump has donated all of his salary, unlike every other President in history. As an accountant I'm very familiar with how big companies (and Presidents, not to mention Senators and Representatives) pay no taxes. Sadly, it's always been a fact.

  2. As Nancy said many corporations (GE, AMAZON, Etc) pay no taxes.
    NONE.

    Thus, should we look at a fair tax such as a strict 10% on everyone, except for the poor below a certain level. And one thing I don't understand.... how do people who paid NO TAXES at all get a refund under the Earned Income Credit?

  3. I took Sunday off from watching cable news so I could not comment last night. I see that several commenters are using State TV (Fox News) talking points.

    A simple Google search reveals that every president from Richard Nixon onward has made their tax returns public. The only exceptions are Donald Trump and Gerald Ford (who kept his tax returns private).

    We Americans that are not partisan know that anytime Trump claims it is "fake news"...it is a deflection on his part and very much true.

    While Amazon and other large corporations do not pay taxes since they are able to write them off due to current tax codes (that are very much in need of reform) they at least make corporate contributions to many charities and worthwhile organizations and get this...THEY DO NOT DENY IT!

    Who does Trump contribute to? Ivanka...he paid her a million dollars for consulting services when she works for the Trump Organization. Deducting $70,000 for his hairdresser...that is not only unethical...IT IS ILLEGAL!

    I could go on and on but why bother when anyone if they so choose to can turn on their television and set it to a reputable news network.

  4. I can't watch news anymore, beyond our local headlines. I'm happy to say the small outbreak in our county that had the highschool shut down (first school in Ontario!) has resolved. Lets hope it stays that way.
