January 20th and another raw cold day, but so far no snow to shovel. 

How was your Martin Luther King Jr holiday? Did you think about his accomplishments. Did you attend any programs in honor of him? Did you reflect on what he did for the nation? Neither did I. Nor do I do any of that for George Washington or Abraham Lincoln, or anybody else’s birthday holidays. They are just excuses to have a holiday. And —- being retired, it’s not even a “day off” because I already have the day off. 

What the day did bring was a really great college football National Championship game between Indiana University and University of Miami. Had not IU been playing — I never would have watched the game. But, I had to support the home team. So, I have watched the Rose Bowl, the Peach Bowl, and now the National Championship game, all of which IU played brilliantly. That will probably be the last sports I watch this year unless I happen to be bored and decode to watch the Super Bowl. I guess that will depend on who’s playing; —— or has that already been decided?? I don’t watch other “playoff” level sports either like the baseball World Series. Just not interested in watching grown men playing children’s games and getting paid outrageous money to do so. Grow up —- get a real job. 

I got a call the first thing this morning from my dental technician saying she had an opening at 11:30 if I wanted to come in and get the left side of my deep cleaning done. So, that’s what I did. I’m sitting here with the left side of my face being numb. After the appointment I went to Dairy Queen and picked up a chocolate milk shake for my brunch. No chewing involved and the only danger is having milk shake running down the left side of my face and me not knowing it. LOL I’m really glad to have that done. I have to go back for a filling on the 3rd of February. 

I guess I’ll sign off/ Walgreens just called and I need to go pick up some meds for Ms. Kate. Have a blessed afternoon. Peace.
