Thursday, January 7: Gas Leak! Aftermath of Coup


Well today is the day after the attempted interaction/cool happened yesterday afternoon in Washington DC. This is all people can talk about. This happened as the Democrats managed 
to win  both houses both Senate races in Georgia. Sous chef Democrats have control the US Senate 50-50 with vice president Kamala Harris breaking the tie. Well as I was reading about
all this Lynne talked  to me about the gas problem and have I taken care of it. I had it. I then talked to Pat for a while and managed to convince him to go to call the gas company rather than just a friend of his for tomorrow. The gas company came in about 20 minutes and lo and behold there was a gas leak. It was located at a pipe that was pretty close to both of the heaters on both floors. That was pretty scary that the leak is 
been probably going on for months now. So the heat have to be shut off and then the plumber had to call the gas company employee can only turn off the gas he couldn’t undo the pipe. The pipe was done 
in about 15 minutes.   Thep lumber was attempting to turn the heat back on and a part on my heater was not working. He couldn’t light the pilot light so he had to go 
out and get a new part and install it. That took about five hours. Fortunately he was put on before sunset which was good. There’s a lot of recriminations about what happened yesterday. Some are
looking at invoking the 25th amendment which should have to be done by terms on cabinet. Several cabinet members have resigned. I don’t think they’re going to do the 25th amendment but the house of representative led by Nancy Pelosi are looking to start impeachment hearings sometime possibly. What a hot mess

Tuesday, August 4: Work then Blackout

I got up this morning very tired because I didn’t sleep long enough last night. Well, I went to my online meeting and everything was cool even though it was pouring rain like hell this morning. In fact, at 7:15 we got a tornado warning the people all over my phone in the rain and wind were blowing pretty steadily that’s for sure. Well as I was working around 11:15 AM we had a full bone blown black out. Electricity just came off. Fortunately I had charge my computer all the way and my phone was more than half charged. I figured that the black out would be 3 to 4 hours tops. Well, it ended up going on till 8:30 PM today. I was ready to make alternative visits to my friends place for the night tomorrow morning if you didn’t if nothing changed. In the meantime, Are use the lighter to light the gas oven and I have baked beans for lunch since I didn’t wanna open the refrigerator. Pat came over and I told him to be quick with the drinks because I didn’t want the fridge to lose it’s cool. All the food ended up OK though. I really didn’t get much done today is pretty much of a fail that’s for sure. I didn’t get in trouble so it was a good day
