Good Monday morning gents and gentiles.

Rain is on the radar, but I don’t care. I’ve got a secret that I can’t yet share.

But big changes are on the horizon.

May your day be better than mine.

Mornin Ya'll.... Sunny and warm today!!!

Been pretty busy here myself, finallizing our complaints to State Police for investigations...

On another Note: one of the main issues with this city had another Alderman Resign over the weekend with Health Issues...

I'm sorry I have no remorse or sympathy for him, his family yes.. I'm just praying he's healthy enough to stand trial?

December 6, council meeting I exposed the Mayor under ethics violations of two outstanding debts one being from 2005 that he as our elected official is in charge of our tax dollars and the man cannot keep his own house in order is how I addressed this council. It Woke up our community and now I've got community members assisting going over these Treasurer Reports and Finances.. It's moving slower then I wanted but the town folks are waking up!!!
Since my quest for "Transparent Government" in our community going forwars.

we've lost two alderman and 5 zoning board members to my Lose of Sleep over 38 months.. I think I'm doing ok here?? d'oh! d'oh!
2 people have stepped up for these positions that have been working with me on Discoveries!!! Beer Beer

The Meeting in December!!! Mr. Gray is the bald headed one who's health just recently went south on him... heart attack and stents.... He was also the Pro-Team Mayor for our community..
City Matter or Personal Matter? you will hear the Mayor address the city Clerk to get with City Attorney to see if he can sue me? So another FOIA on the billing from the City Attorney Law firm shows.. December 7, 2023 phone conciliation between city attorney and Mayor for the amount of $330+ dollars? on a personal matter it cost the tax payers? (Documented off Billings discoveries)

I’m trying to figure what’s going on. Perhaps you can start a separate thread about this.

Disabled Combat Vet and his wife have been road blocked from Prospering off their Property for 39 months now. d'oh! d'oh! Brick wall Brick wall

Spent some time cleaning up the mess I made Saturday, with the trees. Made some progress.

Going to get a nice amount of campfire wood out of it, plus a big bonfire with all of the tree tops and pieces. I'll smoke a good cigar for that...

Will split the bigger rounds (that I bucked) as I need them.

After I get all the wood processed and stored, there are probably another 6 to 10 trees from medium sized to tiny that I'd like to fell.

Im only cutting trees that are choking out other bigger trees. We have four monster trees on the flat. Three Sycamores and one Beech.

Anyway, I'll just repeat this process until I'm done or until mid March. Then it's back to lawn and garden, and I'll pick up where I left off, with the trees, next winter.

Went to the gym today. Finished lifting weights and went to the treadmill to do a 30 minute brisk walk.

Older gentleman on the treadmill next to me, so I said good morning to him. He says... I've been coming here for 3 months and you're the first person who has spoken to me aside from the staff.

So... I took out the earbuds, turned off the music, and chatted with him until he was done.

Can’t get the hands to warm up. 28 degrees is well above average. Maybe the 98% humidity is adding to the bone chill?

Getting soffffffft.

Probably gonna have to go in tonight too.

Cheese toast for lunch. A section of toasted Costco baguette covered in sliced parmigiano cheese and heated in the microwave, yum!

Accompanying lunch, was the smell of my wife's Italian sauce as she was making manicotti, brownies and lemon bars. We are taking dinner over to our oldest son's family, his wife is recovering from surgery.

Had to go back to work tonight. Didn't want to but because of things I had to. On the plus side it's just in a supervisor role, I'm here to help the inexperienced staff with some pretty heavy chit but most of my night will be spent playing solitare. Can't argue with time n a half to play solitare.

I'm scheduled back on Friday. Told wife if I can keep up this deal to just be out of staff and help out, no actual workload, I'll probably work all week and get 48 hours overtime.
