Truth of the Day


It turns out my trips to New Orleans and Austin are going to be after mid July of 2023. Family illness has caused a change of plans as I have to house and pet sit. Oh well no early vacation start this year after I finish teacher work before Summer break.


I am going to Texas this Summer. If any Austin area friends are reading this please message me if you are okay with me sleeping on your sofa for a couple of days in the Summer. I am homesick for Texas, and teachers have Summers off.

In the world of high technology everything old is new again. The newest Insignia Fire TV has one heck of a TV antenna in it, and a great channel search for broadcast TV. As people flee cable TV in masses due to streaming services being better people are switching back to the airwaves for local news. Newer televisions now flaunt an antenna. Everyone at my house now has a Fire TV with an antenna put on it.
“They doubled my cable bill.” Said Anne Brockett before shutting off the cable. I agree it has been ridiculous for a while.

My mom Anne, my daughter Alexandria, and I all had a mother’s day party for the weekend. Here are the best photos.







Wisdom of the Week. Example 2 of how the poor get called crazy and the rich get called eccentric is Prince Charles. Life is about perspective, and anything can be made to look bad.

I would like to point out I am on NO antidepressants, and have not taken any in years. My life has always been better without antidepressants, and it was human sewage that tried to convince me I needed them. Sometimes outrage or sadness is the APPROPRIATE response in that it makes you want to escape abusive situations. If you are in a horrible situation and abusers are trying to make you take so many drugs that you don’t notice the abuse it may be the abusive people and NOT you that is the issue. It may be that your life and surroundings needing some change is the real problem. Just as doctors over prescribed opioids at dangerous extremes they are doing the same with antidepressants now.

Wisdom of the week. Plenty of people have had wild days in life that money covered up, but it is the working class that gets shamed, blamed, and evaluated with a microscope if they have a bad moment. Howard Hughes had some wild days, but servants covered for everything.
