Democrat Sunday
I have had quite the time... last night I was moving some kitchen stuff and -- I was being lazy in not checking -- I didn't realize it wasn't stable, and a pile of trays landed on my right foot. It stung a little but I thought it was fine (it was about 11 PM when I did this, don't ask) but about 2:30 I woke up in immense pain... I prevaricated a bit and decided that with all of this pain, it had to be broken, so I drove to the ER. Long story short: it is not broken (they think) but a glorified bone bruise. (If it still hurts in 4 days, come back.) Not much they can do -- I am wearing the special shoe to keep the foot stable, suggested Motrin, and RICE. I will admit, while things didn't exactly move rapidly, all were kind and helpful (no one was there when I arrived) and I guess it was better I went.
Anyways, my sister was planning on doing AM shopping, so I texted her (at 7 AM) about my escapade. She bought the Motrin, cautioned me to rest, and left. I popped a Motrin, and -- am I not making this up -- I passed out in the chair (yes, the foot was elevated) til 1 PM. I had been up for 20-some hours so I think I needed it. But I missed Mass -- first time in a long time -- and that is not good. Hence the Democrat Sunday. I nodded off a couple of more times this afternoon, though from 4 on I have been alert and alive. I had planned on some laundry, some bathroom cleaning, and other chores, but instead all I have done was sit here, do some contract work, and catch up on the bookmarks. I have elevated the foot quite a bit and did get it iced, and there is less pain. We will see how tomorrow goes, of course... but mainly I feel like an idiot for doing this in the first place. Alas.
OC duty Saturday -- steady busy again (144) but again, the number of pain in the rear clients was counted on one hand. We got rid of all of the produce and bread, plenty of clothes, and did some cleaning. Phew. Next week is our last week (off for Turkey Day) so I will reduce the produce order. If we have another crowd like last week this week, it will be a record... oi.

I will believe this when I see it, but this is exactly correct, and let's hope the new DOGE people start here.
Clashes, confusion and secrecy consume the Harris campaign's finances
I get a kick out of this, as they spent a billion dollars to get beaten. I realize there is Democrat financial logic, to be sure, but more to the point... I don't ever want to hear any libtard telling me we can't afford to cut some program and haircut some government program. Every GOPer should be calling them out on this until they (the Dems) hang themselves to avoid it.
