I tried listening to a Christmas song yesterday, the mood is not in me yet.
What is in me is too much food. Combining this problem with my gimpy ankle, I have decided to skip tonight’s SLUT hash even though the start (and most likely end) is no more than two miles from the ITP Estate.
Speaking of the ITP Estate, this month I am going to try to return to ridding it of unnecessary items. I have been listening to an audiobook about Minimalism, and while I can’t be as ruthless as its author, it is inspiring me to attempt to make some changes.
If I can get the mizzus to help me pick through the contents of the man cave, I might have a whole lot more room! I bought (and were given) some large plastic totes (ala the garage mahal) and have used just a couple to store horse blankets. There is much more that could be organized, and a whole bunch to toss. Any good suggestions for recycling old tube TV’s? And computer monitor (flat screen).
Over the last 2 nights we’ve been watching a biography of Garth Brooks. I hope he is as genuine as he appears. Debbie says he’s just a bit too much… hopefully it’s not a put on. Just a guy who you’d like to have a beer with.
Waiting on AT&T for a repair. Fingers crossed.

Most recycling centers take TVs and monitors — for a fee…
I need to contact AT&T as my home internet has not fixed itself, imagine that.
I intend to spend tonight, Saturday daytime, and possibly Sunday morning, cleaning/organizing/purging.
Where is the biography? I’d love to see that! Frank Wrenn (Royal F) works with Garth a lot on Habitat builds and says he is legit just as genuine as you see. Apparently he and Trisha are also set to take over the reigns from Jimmy and Rosalyn Carter’s Habitat ambassadorship when it gets to that point. That’s so awesome.
I have the Garth special recorded, it was a 2 night show.
I can’t remember what station it was/is on.
Allan isn’t interested, so I need to watch when he isn’t home.
I really like him, and I do think he is pretty genuine.
I think it was on A&E. That would be pretty cool about Habitat.
Stacy, you’ve been out-lurking ME as of late!
LOL Lurker! 🙂
Yeah…it’s actually routine for me to check ITP while at work (since that’s really only where I web browse) but I’d been out of work for the last 6 weeks from surgery. I’m back to annoy y’all now though! *grin*
I’m ambivalent about Garth Brooks, but that Chris Gaines guy is a dick. 😂
whatcha got against Chris Gaines?
Nothing actually. In fact, I may have only heard those songs one time back in the olden days.
Garth went to my college before my time (Oklahoma State) and the house that he and Sandy lived in was still being rented when I was there, and there’s a big sign on the front that said “Garth and Sandy’s House.†Everyone wanted to live there. I’ve also heard he is pretty genuine.
In “TV†news, last night Betsy got me to watch the first episode of a show called “Successionâ€. I may continue watching.
😮. There seems there would be stress and tension in that show?
I don’t mind stress and tension, it’s graphic violence that I avoid.
Given that Glengarry Glen Ross is your favorite movie, I think Succession will be your speed. I’m halfway through the second season. I think it’s very well done. Lots and lots of dysfunctional people in that show, though.
Huh, just found out it’s on HBO, which is a dealbreaker for me. I have Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney+, and soon AppleTV Plus, I’m not going to latch onto another paid service.
Too bad I can no longer use my friend’s HBO login :(.
That’s a good point, Lurker, you’re right. I’ve still never seen the movie, but loved the play.
Wait. Whaaaat!?!? 🤯
You can do it Paulie! 🤜ðŸ»ðŸ¤›ðŸ» Yeah I hate missing SLUT too, but besides my knee issues, I have to attend the HOA annual meeting tonight. Oh fun!
HOA, HOA, HOA! ‘Tis the season! 😂
