Woohoo!!!! Weekend!!!!
Woohoo!!!! Weekend!!!! I'm working 1 day a week now, Monday, so today at 3:30pm my weekend began. And I am sick of this. Since this started back in early March I went from working every 2 days, to working every 3 days to 1 day a week AND I've managed to put on 10 lbs. I walk so much at work IT was my exercise, now I've had to start walking the hood again. The rest of my life has been watching TV, endless Covid reports, Netflix, or Free TV. That's right. Got me a good ol' fashion antenna and got about 60 something free channels. Half are in Spanish, another good amount are shopping channels and then there are some oldie channels that I like to watch. Reruns of That 70s Show, According To Jim, and Home Improvement. The funniest show I've seen is Father Knows Best, that show has had me spitting coffee and reaching for the remote so I can wind it back and see what I missed while I was trying to clear my morning Java from my sinus, then I remember, Free TV has no rewind, no pause, no control. I feel as if I'm at their mercy, which I am. Other than that, not much to report. The lawn is mowed, dishes are done, the puffables are getting puffed even as I write this, and life crawls along ever so slowly. So, what do y'all do to pass the time? |

I've been working overtime. Yup. I'm one of the "essential" workers and we've been swamped with work so I'm there from 6am to 4pm.

Father Knows Best? Now THERE'S a classic I haven't seen in ages. And it WAS funny. I'm still pretty busy, as I work from home. My escape (besides blowing time on this site), is my car. Open roads... absolutely no traffic... - at any time of day or night. A decent sound system to vibrate my brain cells... and... voilà! ❗ I'm like a kid in the candy store, with all the free space I have. It's one of the positive things to come outta this whole thing. True, about walking though. I'm on a mission to walk more. Thanks for the reminder! 👍 ... is there another way to look at it Going Too Fucking Far NEW Blog Features RevealeD O O A Foolproof Method Posted Over on that NEW site O O

Are there still shopping channels on TV? Never could stand to watch those for long. All I have is the antenna TV hooked up here. Though my son did get cable so he could have a faster internet and more channels to watch. But I haven't been interested in hooking the cable up to my TV's. I have used his internet though when mine went down now and then. I like watching Gunsmoke and Bananza and the twilight zone and that 70's show and the others you mentioned sometimes. I've seen most of the Bananza shows when I was a kid and some of the Gunsmoke and Twilight zone shows. The rest are mostly new to me with a few exceptions. Beaver Cleaver getting into trouble and Dennis The Mennis. I've been watching Gilligans Island at times. I remember some of those too. I still like Marianne. Then I get bored and watch Netflix or YouTube. Was watching Robin Williams and George Carlin and Richard Pryor lately. There was a guy I was watching today that you might like. I will see if I can find him and get back to you he had a good show about kids. Vive La Difference

I can say you’re not alone... I’ve gained at least 10lbs as well! LOL We’ve had a whole bunch of extra time to bbq lately. Went from probably once or twice a month to every freakin night. And ohhh myyy... its gooood. I really need to start being more active. Lol

I kinda feel like I'm missing something. The virus hasn't really effected things in the valley I'm in. There have been a total of 75-ish cases. Traffic is a bit less and the drive thru bank thing is different. The biggest change seems to be everyone is dressed to rob where ever I go. But why rob a Home Depot? When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

I'm still working every day, as well. I miss going to the gym and find myself shut in my office or my apartment most of the time... I've totally got the quarantine -15 going on. Good lord.... I already struggled with weight issues anyway to begin with.

Had I known I would have started walking on day 1, now with the added weight I get winded so fast it wears me out and limits my distance. It's gonna be a hard road back without work to consume my time. I need routine.

Then before this all started; I Retired !!! Sex got scratched of the list as I wasn't having any Luck fulfilling that one !! The, "Me Do" list has now become a , "What to DO" list !!!

Knitting and podcasts, knitting and Netflix, reading, some walking but not enough! Because I have also started a cookie baking habit. I don’t seem to be gaining weight but definitely getting more out of shape as time without the gym goes on.

Remember when we thought a 6 day weekend was the dream? How am I passing the time? I'm on track to finish the embroidery project I started 11 years ago. I re-read a 14 book series on vampires. I swept out the garage with a kitchen broom. I washed my vacuum. I'm on level 4,447 of Cookie Jam. I'm not too worried about weight gain. When you're already fat, a couple pounds don't matter. Besides, I lost 15 pounds when I retired so I figure I've got some cushion. Opportunity may knock only once, but temptation bangs on the door forever!

I'm finding free tv enjoyable. If I turn on free tv I can do other things, but if I pick out a movie on Netflix I feel obligated to pay attention. Watching the Chihuahua and the Shih Tzu have there daily Death Match is very funny.
