Nice day, warm, but with a breeze.\u00a0 Or so I hope…<\/p>\n
That pretty much describes yesterday.\u00a0 Another beautiful fall day.\u00a0 Got some of my auction stuff sorted out.\u00a0\u00a0 Helped the daughter with classwork and discovered just how bad it is.\u00a0 Made lunch.<\/p>\n
Then I started getting some of my Halloween decorations out.\u00a0 I don’t want to get everything set, because we have a hurricane that could hit us, and then I’ve got roofers coming.\u00a0 I have to move everything to a safe distance from the house and get out of their way, so I’m only setting up stuff that’s either easy to move, or out of the way.\u00a0 I like to do a big scene for Halloween.<\/p>\n
Today my wife is home working, so she’ll have oversight of the kids while I run errands.\u00a0\u00a0 I’ve got pickups (stuff for HER) and hopefully some cleanup at my secondary location.\u00a0 I’m also hoping to take 3 or 4 big bins to my local auction.\u00a0 That will help at home.<\/p>\n
I watched about half of the VP debate.\u00a0 While it was less rancorous, the two realities that the candidates (and by extension their supporters) live in are very far apart.\u00a0 That is the most I’ve seen of Pence, well, ever.\u00a0 Seems nice enough.\u00a0\u00a0 The other one, not so much.<\/p>\n
I’m also seeing so many articles about how Trump is cooked, done, over, crashing and burning, definitely gonna lose big, etc.\u00a0 Where do those people live?\u00a0 What are they watching? *\u00a0 A commentor here brought up some good points, but I don’t see it.\u00a0 Trump’s supporters from last time are out in force this time.\u00a0 Tentative supporters from last time are feeling freer to support him this time.\u00a0 I don’t see supporters leaving him in droves.\u00a0 And he seems to be attracting new supporters as well.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Further, nobody “loves” Joe Biden.\u00a0\u00a0 No one that I can see is psyched that he’s running, or excited by the idea.\u00a0 His slogan is that he’s a “uniter”.\u00a0\u00a0 No one would ever believe that.\u00a0 I just don’t see it.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I really hope I’m not wrong, but the ‘two different worlds’ problem is getting bigger and I’m just as likely (ok, not quite as likely) to be stuck in mine as they are stuck in theirs.<\/p>\n
Either way, things are not going to ‘get better’ any time soon.\u00a0 Keep stacking.<\/p>\n
