It’s a big week full of thoughts on my brain during this week’s return of Lawn Kid. It takes up a lot of my mental bandwidth. And I am super short on mental bandwidth, I’m still stuck on what to do about health insurance which I haven’t had in maybe a decade. It’s insanely expensive in Georgia. I’m trying to get back to the old lady water walking and the rules keep on changing. My brain is still mush from doing business taxes by hand with pen and paper. And yes I know there are programs but I don’t trust them.
BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, is I want to get back to spending more times with you guys about stupid reality shows and other distractions! I’ve very excited about the upcoming RHOA reunion and the Summer House reunion and the RHONJ reunion. I’m also super excited about the return of Shahs of Sunset. I may be able to get some tea about them soon. However, I feel better knowing I am not the only one trying to keep some mental health happening and my favorite source has a lot going on too, so I don’t want to push.
I’m a little pissed off that some people think it is just fine to try to kill your wife and get off with probation. Especially since Ronny from New Jersey got the same deal and is already back in jail on new charges that appear to be against a totally different person. To me it seems like a racist application of the law.
RHONJ’s Dolores Catania crashed a wedding reception recently. The only reason I care about that is because it was allegedly for a TMZ cameraman. Hmmmmm Hmmmmm. Clearly a source not for just that story, but for others… IJS.
Kaitlyn Jenner is running for Governor of California, one of the largest states in the country. She has ZERO background in politics and is a Trumpster. WILL THIS NEVER END. Georgia is already embarrassed as hell about one of our representatives who thinks the Jews have lasers on space ships causing forest fires in California. I still don’t understand how black people, LGBT people, disabled people, and poor people keep supporting the ORANGE ONE. He is a flim flam man just like many black lawyers making their income off of parents of black children killed by police. We need trustworthy leaders.
WHY DOES EVERYONE STILL THINK THEY CAN TRAVEL? It is not time yet! To be honest I would probably go to a high end resort in Tulum or St. Lucia if I didn’t have a dog that I can’t take or leave. Most of those places are as my very jealous elementary school teachers said, “Why does Tamara get to go to these places? I wanted a honeymoon there, it is very expensive. Why does she get to go?” Answer: I live in the ghetto shack and walked to school. I bought a reasonable car. I’m not trying to impress girlfriends I do not have.
So yeah, if you want to got to Anse Chastenet my favorite place, it is VERY isolated and also where Kenya Moore go married. There is minimal Internet access in the lobby, no TVs!!! in your room. A phone that only goes to your person or the front desk. It’s like super luxurious solitary confinement and a great mental health break. You do eat with other guests in the restaurant and see them on the beach but is it very socially distanced BEFORE the pandemic. So year if you have a few thousand to spare go do that. But stop traveling. I think this is a Jade Mountain room which is an even MORE expensive and further up the mountain at the same resort. Still, sell a child on the black market if you have to to get there. 🙂 I mean most of you have lots of them anyway. 🙂
Below Deck Spinoffs…
So that COLD version of Below Deck will be an Iceland spinoff. I’m down for it. It is super cheap to fly from Atlanta to Iceland and you even get free flights to Europe afterwards sometimes. So we shall see. And the other one is a new Australia spinoff. PLEASE GOD NO CAPTAIN SANDY! I am actually friendly with Captain Lee. But we never talk about the show. But maybe I should try to get something out of him. He’s just a good guy. I like him and his wife. But honestly, I am not sure we have ever had a private conversation about the show. I know he has never given me and I have never asked for a spoiler. We just check on each other at times. He and his bride are good people.
I think that is all I have on my mind today except for maybe one more thing that is breaking. So I have to go start a new post for that and see what sources say… stay tuned.
Ooh I love these random thoughts! Keep them coming 😊
And yes I don’t understand all these moronic Trumpsters. Its been so nice watching the news without having to mute the international news part everyday.
Anyway it’s a long weekend here in Oz for ANZAC Day (kinda like your Memorial Day) and for the first time in 2 years all the Vets will be able to march on the streets and thousands will be there to cheer them on. It will be lovely.
Have a great weekend everyone!
TT, you post whenever you want. Take breaks, do your thing. We ain’t going anywhere. Okay, first no way in hell will Jenner take over for Newsom. ALL politicians are shady and cannot be trusted. ALL OF THEM! I trust my cats more than any of those camera hungry, lying, scamming politicians. ALL OF THEM. And Jenner is using Brad Pascale as a campaign advisor. Good grief. Gina’s ex needs to go to prison. Then again, this is CA where god forbid people are held responsible for their actions. (Like Chicago BTW). Community service? Ankle bracelet and anger mgmt? That’s it?? People (not me) are thinking it’s okay to travel. IT IS NOT. Variants are growing and people are sick of wearing masks and sick of staying home. Well, that’s their choice. I don’t go to restaurants but will do carry out. People here in CA are starting to go back to normal, no masks, etc. and I think they are insane. Or is it me? Did I get brainwashed with fear of Covid? I don’t think so. All I know is that for the first time in YEARS, I did not get a cold this year and I got one every year. And that’s from wearing masks.
It is terrifying and so sad to hear about what is happening in India currently.
My husband and I wear masks all the time. Social distance. Stay away from people. He got a cold and gave it to me. So do masks work? Who knows. I wear it anyway just to make other people feel more comfortable. Both of us have been fully vaccinated. Going to Hilton Head for a week. Need a break from our jobs. Yes, we work remote.
I double mask and also got a cold recently! All we can do is the best we can do I guess. Even though I’m vaccinated (and from what the CDC and the government are saying the vaccines protect from the variants- maybe?), I’m still masking up. But (if the “science” can be trusted and if we’re vaccinated we’re protected), why should we not travel? We are definitely planning trips now. Unless it’s not possible for medical reasons, we need to get off our asses and get the vaccine! We will not reach herd immunity otherwise. And just like the flu vaccine, they will alter the vaccine to keep up with the variants. The good news is, they already had a “prototype” that was very good (with tweaks) for the current vaccines, so as the variants happen, it should be pretty easy to keep up with them with the “tweaks”- just like the yearly flu vaccine. We’re all definitely going to need boosters every six months to a year, but again, this concept is no different than the flu vaccine.
We can’t travel because lots of people are not vaccinated yet. Including all but the most at-risk children. Or children with rich parents.
Airlines are not allowed to ask for vax records (cards) because of privacy laws.
I should have said international travel.
The friend I dogsit for went to Arizona in Feb. and the airport was half empty, as was the plane (every other seat/row empty. In April, Easter weekend, every seat was filled.
I am looking forward/ dreading the Drag Race finale tonight. I don’t have a real favorite, but I kinda hoping Handy bombs. I think they will pick Got Mik. I miss Tina.
I just watched! I was so worried Kandy would win. I am thrilled with the winner.
All vaccinated and ready to enjoy a socially distant summer. If I could travel, I’d go to Paris or Puerto Rico. Stuck at home though. Covid and lack of support for my pets. It’s hard having a pit bull and blue healer. They are impossible to board. We keep saying, “After the dogs…”. They are four and six 😂
I have a mostly pit/heeler she is such a Sweet girl but man tbe energy!
Blue healers are the smartest dogs. I have two friends with healers and their dogs are flicking amazing. That is my personal experience. I don’t trust dogs at first because I was attacked by a dog we adopted from a shelter. A dog my family adopted almost ripped my face off, I still have intentions on my face. I am very reluctant around all animals.
I wish I lived near you. I would take care of either dog any day.
I understand why people are hesitant about pit bulls, but heelers? Heelers are delightful little characters!
Fully vaccinated and still mask up unless I’m with a physician or fully vaccinated family member.
Did Kate go back to Below Deck?
Nope. I think she is just over yachting. And Bravo. She has other opportunities. She is one of the few to walk away from the paycheck.
When Andy said she looked like a housewife at the last reunion she was at, and she said she was moving to New York, that maybe that she was going to be one?
Always liked Kate even though Chat Room didn’t showcase her snarky side so it wasn’t a fit. Hope she wasn’t fired and hope she finds her niche.
Porsha never shuts up to let anyone else speak. Hannah is disgusting and Gizelle is so fake, so I never watched.
Hannah AND Giselle AND Porsha have let that Chat Shit go to their heads.
Especially Hannah. I can’t stand her now!
I have been under so much stress I think I may explode. My eyelid has been twitching for a few days, my stomach is constantly burning, and my head hurts on and off. When it rains, it fucking pours.
I’m glad you got to see Lawn Kid, even if things didn’t work out as well as you wanted. Some day he will grow up and come back a man and he will always remember you and the kindness you showed him…kids don’t forget things like that ♥️
I hope your stress is alleviated soon. You don’t need your immune system to go down now!
Don’t you have horses? My brain isn’t what it used to be. If you DO have horses, a nice long ride might be perfect before it gets too hot.
Take care.
Thanks, Nanette. You’re right…I do have a horse, but he’s 34 and has been retired from riding since I got him 17 years ago 🙂
How have you been?
Oh yeah! A hail storm. 🙁 Weird weather her tonight for the next hour or so…
