Jan 18th.                    (Warning: religion talk)

And it made my tummy hurt just like every year.

In other news I went down a YouTube rabbit hole, watching videos about Islam, ex Muslims, Mecca, Petra, and so much more. I’m glad I’m no longer religious in any way, if I ever really was. It makes the ridiculousness of all organized religions easier to see. I’m curious about other cultures, but religions only in an academic way.

I feel equally skeptical about Christianity, Judaism, and the Norse gods. It’s all so unbelievably made-up sounding.

Anyway the keto thing is going okay. I’m still obviously eating garbage food, but I compromised with one garbage meal per day. Well see what happens after a few weeks of this. It’s an improvement, anyway.

Mom’s doing a lot better. Back to her old self almost, according to Lisa at the memory care home. I’d have to say her vaccinations worked.

Man, my shoulder is killing me. I should really start doing what my physical therapist told me to do.

Read two books today and watched a few movies. Not very good ones but there you are. My walk was cold but I had many layers so that helped. Lots of folks out downtown for a Sunday.

Had Joe and crew over for supermarket pizza. It was fun. Joe started teaching Charisma to armpit fart; I sure love that kid. She’s not very good but I could see that she was really trying lol.

Mom’s doing good. Sleeping a lot but that’s normal for being sick.

Not sure if I ever posted this one. It’s from a couple weeks ago. She always gets mint chocolate chip for some reason.

My walk today was good. Not too cold. Lots of people in the park so you know it was the weekend

This whale gets repainted every so often. Usually a social service group does it. I see it every day but maybe not everyone has. He’s at Skinner Butte park.

Went grocery shopping for the first time in a while. Prices have gone up. Just a few cents, but still it’s noticeable. I already went back on the keto thing. I have to eat SOME vegetables too.

My new neighbor sounds like he’ll work out. He was kinda loud, but only up until 9 or so. Nice and quiet after that. Thank goodness!!

I’m pleased to report that the animal making a nest in my car has gone for good, it seems. Nothing new in a month.

Forgot last night

Yesterday we learned mom has covid so that sucked. Nothing to do about it but worry.

I spent my Friday time with Charisma at my place. She wanted to exercise lol. So she jumped around for about 5 minutes before we started a movie. Charlie and the chocolate factory.

It’s obvious that kids don’t come over much. I only have 3 kids movies. Maybe I’ll get a few today from the thrift store.

Started keto again. I’m sad about my physical condition so it’s time to get more serious about my health.
