Didn't sleep worth a damn last night, typical complaint of old age pensioners isn't it? Then about 5am Furry decided it was high time that I rise to her food need and the proper mounding of the diminished supply currently available. We were going to buy some yesterday (kibble) but did not...so this morning was the shock (for HUR Magesty) of a less and volumous bowl, a middling hillock instead of the mountain of her desires and it was MY turn to do this deed apparently. As you know I usually DO the DO-DO end business, but lately Kelly has taken that on as well, why I do not know but I'm not going to ask. So Furry has deemed me available for mounding of kibble at 5am in trade of duties.
So up and coffeed this morning we got busy finishing the kitchen floor project. Once the asbestos tile was removed, the wallpaper steamer worked wonders to loosen the quite cured adhesive that held it. Foot by foot, apply steam, scratch with a wire brush, mop up the loosened glue move steamer and repeat. Thank God that it was a small room...only about 75 sq. feet Still it took us since last week to get it done. It's all a rose colored cement now with a slight gloss that goes well with the wallpaper we will be applying next.
Le Tour Du France fills my afternoons these days and we have 10 days left. Now in the mountains of the south of France each day saps the riders more than the last, exhaustion is showing more and more with each stage. It's nice not having a dominate rider this year, many teams have had their turn winning stages so each is a surprise and very exciting to watch as they charge the finish line. Quite a spectacle!
Tomorrow is the annual Brocante at the Champ du Foire across the street from us, it'll be a human zoo with more baby clothes and rusted tools than any 3 other brocantes in the area. We will go early and host our friends as they visit and spend their hard earned monies buying things we no longer want or need. We have ENOUGH! It's purely and upgrade buying task for us these days. We are half way through our stay now and planning a 5 day 4 night stay in Paris to revisit sites we want to see again, it'll be a ball. Paris is FUN!

What's To Say?
About what? Well the damned Casey Anthony Almost Trial that wrapped up yesterday. The public thinks she's guilty of course, the prosecutors are sure of it, the jurors thought not and sent her home to "Party ON" as best she can. Oh, the lies you say...so what? Time served will handle those quite nicely. The Tape, the body location, the smell from the trunk, her stupid explanation of where her little girl was that month, the Nanny took her...sure, all of that and a hundred bits more but the prosecutors blew it...Time of Death? Manner of Death? Tape...? I dunno, guess it wasn't enough. Did she drown? Chloroform? In the car? On the body?! (after 6 months lying in a ditch?) Aw it stinks. A BAD DAY for the justice system and a bad day for all of us that thought she was Guilty As Charged. We were wrong...or wronged.
Then there's Obama's War...you say "Which one?" I dunno...try one of these, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya and how many more unnamed places are being "warred" by our fine government, police-to-the-world military? He promised to shut them down, to get our troops out etc. etc. ad nauseum. Not yet. Libya? A new place to play in the sand. I'm not happy. Obama's not left enough for me. And the gutless American public won't go into the streets to force him to take notice. Oh well.
The dolts of the Republikan Parti...who to choose, Trump, Bachmann, Palin (cough) and 1/2 a hundred more wanabees? What a joke they have become that Party of No. No Sense, No Glory, No Hope, No Reliable Candidate, No Votes.
And they OWN the House now. Good God! There's always the Tea Parti! I joke of course. I'll vote for Obama just to watch them die.
Exxon Valdez in Yellowstone River system. Just a few pints, only a few paltry fish, no big deal. Just a fine (maybe) and little slap on the hand of the Corporate Giant that can't get it Right anywhere and anytime.
The Maid's Big Mouth. IMF guy can't even get a square piece of ass these days without some blabbermouth letting on about it...the Maid of course.
Wow, the French aren't happy with our treatment of him and now they have their own case...can't keep it zipped up I guess. Shouldn't have told her his name, the fool...should have said "John".
Enough for today's examination of stupidity on these fronts, I'm sure there's more to come.
