The Anchorage, Part 3

Terre

Renowned
Part of what happened is that by late September many people were totally disgusted with the entire election.
Example: A co-worker who is a Bill Clinton fan (literally, he's a member of the inner circle of a FB based fan club) came stomping into work and declared "That's it! I've had it with BOTH major candidates! I'm voting interdependent."

Political discussions tend to turn into manure which way some places discourage it. Not saying my view of what happened as I am barely awake

Yes. I understand being so very tired of all the dishonesty and corruption in politics. And it's very clear politicians really do not understand how far they are from the concerns of the "common" folk.

I do wonder if Trump and his supporters still believe the election was rigged. One supporter apparently said that Trump won in spite of the election being rigged. Seriously ... if the election was rigged, Clinton would have won by a landslide. Corruption never does thing in tiny doses.

Ohhhhh, I've never been one to wake up quite that early. Even when I was still working, I never got out of bed before 7:00am, and now in my retirement years, I'm lucky if I'm out of bed before 10:00am or 11:00am.

10.16am here and I'm awake. I forgot to mute my phone and someone rang me. So I'm awake and tired and I want to not be. Sigh.

Oh I so hate that feeling. They've been doing a lot of construction work in this neighborhood, including our building, and they start at 9:00am and don't quit (except for an hour for lunch) until 5:00pm, and there have been times when I'm ready to take a nap in the middle of the afternoon, simply because they woke me up with all the drilling and banging. ~sheesh~

I have the Ringer on my phone extension in the bedroom turned off completely, but they get me anyway if they leave a message, as I can't turn off the Answering Device for just one extension. I learned the hard way that it turns off for the whole system, unlike the Ringer, which is per extension, so I turned the volume on that phone down as low as I could without turning it off completely.

Grapes and raisins are potential health threats for cats, though more so for dogs. Eating grapes/raisins can cause the sudden development of kidney failure. Sadly, kidney failure is the leading cause of death with domestic cats. I lost Sushi to that when she was 21.

It took me forever to get to sleep last night. I finally felt tired enough about 3 am, but then couldn't get to sleep because of some construction. Seriously?!? What is up with all that banging and what not at 3 am?!? It sounded like someone was building a house. But it was either SEPTA working on tracks or something or it was roadwork. I was just too tired and cold to get up and look. But not tired enough to get past the noise.

Bad enough when I'm home with a migraine and they are jackhammering during the day, but there is never an excuse for construction in the wee hours of the morning!

Its odd most of our pets have eaten stuff that was meant to be bad for them/kill them and have lived to a ripe old age with no ill effects at all. Im not saying Id go out and feed what ever it was to them though.

When I got home from work last night my daughter told me the Canadian immigration website crashed just after the election results were coming through. Don't know how true it is and someone at work told me the same happened with NZ...I wouldn't say I'm stunned but I am disappointed.

YIKES, I wouldn't like that either. The only road construction I see here at late hours are the highways, but not regular streets, nor the subways and/or elevated trains. They usually do the trains on the weekends, so the rush hour transit isn't affected that much.
