Day 2826 Sunday for mothers

11th May 2025

We had the early call to tell us that the eggs were out on the roadside. I rapidly dressed and rushed out to the shed to get my bike out.

I had charged the battery so I was ready for a rapid launch. Unfortunately I hadn’t pumped up the tyres, and the back one was soft.

With the wide tyre there was a lot of flex, the back end would move side to side, and every bump was met with a squelch. But I did get to the eggs in good time. I loaded up a dozen variable coloured varieties and headed back.

It was Mother’s Day, the temperature was in the seventies and it was a glorious day. Just the time to get in the garden and dig up grass. The beds had grass and dandelions that had to be removed. My T-shirt was soon wet and exhaustion was rapidly approaching. It was satisfying to clear an area, it will take a few more days work to finally finish, but it was a great start.

I was planning to do some of my project work, but I got distracted.

I had a visit from my friend George, he came to tell me some news about Steve Kubica’s wife who was ill, and unlikely to return to Saugatuck for the summer. George himself and his wife Kathleen had just returned from Mexico where they have a house. Being Democrats they moved there during Trumps first term, and George likes to tease Kelli about her politics.

I do like to challenge people like George about the various policies that are being implemented.

He agrees that poisons should be removed from food, that the broader should be closed, that illegal immigrates should be removed, and that waste should be removed from the government.

He just doesn’t like the way Trump does it.

I can see the pattern, the two party state has frozen the country, the middle ground cannot be crossed even though what is being proposed make perfect sense to everyone.

There is still a lot to do. The Epstein files have still not been released, weeks after they were promised. There is talk that there are too many important people would be exposed on the videos, but the American people want to see that the promises that was made, will be kept.

I don’t think they care who is on them, because they know that most of the politicians on both sides are corrupt, and evil, they just want to know.

We had our Mother’s Day ice cream feast at Kelli’s mums, we brought the plants we got yesterday along with a small vase full of flowers from our garden, I had to read the card that Kelli gave to her mother to avoid too much emotion expressed.
