I've come to a realization

 I'm beginning to think that all the people I watch on YouTube are at least as clueless as I am. 

I waste a lot of time watching Youtube and should be doing things. My addiction is to YouTube motivational videos. I spend all day watching those things and I'm wasting my time. They are just telling us what we want to hear and it's the same old stuff anyway. I need to get back to reading more.

I went to Fort Dodge

 I bought a laptop I want to use at the Bitcoin Convention next year. 

It was contaminated with Windows. I've been spending hours getting Linux Mint to work on it. 

I was looking for something I could run Bitcoin Core and Theta on. I'll have to add memory and a large hard drive but I'm happy with it. 

I ate at Perkins which is always good. The check engine light stayed off. I'm happy.

I Quit my Job

 I quit my job at the food pantry and immediately got a job at the rec center.

I was stressing out there so I quit. I think my new job will be a lot better. It will be a lot of cleaning and such. I think I'll be happier there. 

I keep watching silver and gold because I think they'll go in the opposite direction of the dollar. I've been betting about $10 a week in options. I keep losing because it's rigged. I just can't seem to make money on options. I should just find a way to bet against the dollar, itself.

I need to Write more Content

 I've been linking a lot of videos without writing much, lately. I really haven't had much to say.

I started a new job at "New Opportunities". It's a food  pantry and clothing store.

I bought a printer for $5.00 yesterday. I think I can get it running by adding ink to it. I ordered a cartridge from Amazon. It'll get here by Wednesday. it's a nice printer. If I get it running I'll use it in the basement with the Windows computer.

I need to get a better laptop for my trip to Nashville next July. I'm going to a convention for Bitcoin.

Changing the topic, it's cold, here today. It's supposed to snow but so far only little pellets have come down. 

I was going to mulch my leaves today but it's too cold. It should warm up soon.

A Big Day at the Food Pantry

 Today is a big day at the food pantry. The mobile food pantry is coming today. We'll have dozens of cars lined up to pick up food. They will be lined up around the block. I'll be in the middle of things. 

On the third Wednesday of every other month we have the truck come; and we give out food in mass. 

It's raining a bit and I'm on my bicycle because my cars starter doesn't work. 

On that note I'll find a YouTube video.




I like Stansberry Research and Danilla.

Will Silver go through the Roof Monday?

 I've been buying options on silver miners (silj) for several months, now. It moved almost a dollar last Friday. If it keeps moving I'll clean up financially. If it moves by five dollars I'll be ahead by thousands of dollars. 

If it happens I'll first pay for my trip to Nashville  next July. Then I'll double down on my bets. I hope to end up with a lot of Bitcoin.

I listen to Michael Saylor when he talks about Bitcoin on YouTube. I think I'll leave one of his interviews here.

I saw Two Presidential Candidates Yesterday.

 I went to Ida Grove at 9:00 A.M. to see Nikki Halle; then after I got off work

I spotted a gathering of reporters and such at the popcorn ball. I stopped and got to talk with Ron Desantos about Bitcoin. He said he was for it and he was going to make an announcement soon.

This can only happen in Iowa during election year.

I'm leaning towards Ramaswamy. Here is an interview by Tucker.

Interesting video

I've been watching an interesting video. Jordan Peterson is interviewing a woman who wrote a book "Laptop from Hell".

I'm going to load it here.



 

This is just a summary. I guess the video is censored. The real interview goes on for at least an hour and a half. I don't know how you would find it. 

Another thing; the woman in this video keeps using the word allegedly when referencing the laptop. Joe Biden admitted it was his when he tried to use the law to get it back.

I'm going to see Nikki Haley Monday

 I 'm going to see Nikki Haley in Ida Grove, Monday. Being an Iowa resident I get to meet as many presidential candidates that I can stand. 

I'll ask her to make can redemptions a national thing. That's my issue. I asked Tim Scott about it an he pretty much laughed me off. I'll keep at it because it's important to the really poor people. 

I started writing my book on a desktop computer's files and it showed up on my Microsoft computer as well. I may have to handwrite it for privacy. 

It's almost time for me to go swimming so I'll wrap this up.

We had 1.2 inches of Rain Last Night

 Over yesterday afternoon and last night, we had 1.2 inches of rain. The harvest is stopped until the ground dries out. At least it settled the dust. I think they'll be back in the fields tomorrow.

A bunch of fruit flies are bothering me. I'll hose them down with Raid.

My Last Post Vanished

 I made a post a day or two ago and it vanished. I don't think it was very controversial but maybe I'm wrong. The video I attached to it may have been censored, I don't know.

I looked for it but it doesn't show up.

Not much is happening today. I'll start a book soon. I'm good at starting them but not good at finishing them. 

Grammarly keeps wanting me to go to premium but I refuse since it will cost money. That's the trouble with everything now. Everybody wants money that I don't have.

I think I'll just leave a video and get to writing my book.

I haven't posted for quite a while

A lot has happened since I last posted.

1. I went on the Honor Flight to Washington D.C. It was great that I only found one name on the wall. We all called him Jose Gonzalas but it turned out he was Roberto Gonzalas. 

2. I went to see Tim Scott (a presidential candidate) in Fort Dodge. I got to ask him a question about making can redemptions, national.

3. I cleaned up the yard and house last week. It looks a lot better.

A Young Guy came by and Cleaned up the Outside of my House

 The guy I was going to give my chicken wire to came by and wanted my extra bicycle. I asked $45 for the bike. 

I needed the front and side of the building to be cleaned up. The grass was over-growing everything. He wasted no time in pulling weeds and grass. It really looks nice but I had to barter away $30 to get it done.

Right now, I'm waiting for him to come and pick up the bike. I might not see him until tomorrow. Maybe I'll have to find something else to do so he can barter labor for the rest of the bike.

These Garage Sale Days aren't as Profitable as the Last Ones Were

 I'm ahead about $100; at the same time at the last city-wide garage sale, I was ahead around $1000. I feel that people simply don't have much money due to inflation. Maybe it's me being negative, but I find myself taking smaller sums of money for good things. I just feel that people don't have much money to spend.

I couldn't even give away some gardening stuff like chicken wire and pots for plants. People just don't have money.

On that note, I'll leave a blog or video.

Tomorrow I'll be busy, not today

 I'm going to Carroll tomorrow for my annual physical. I also have a class in the morning.

Silver took a dive today. Apparently, it had something to do with the dollar moving up because something happened in China to move the Yuan down. As usual, I'm on the wrong side. I've got a few call options on junior silver miners. I can't seem to win. 

One of my video selections on YouTube was taken down. I don't know which one it was or I would load it again.

Payday

 Today was payday (Social Security) for me. I paid my rent and went to Carroll, Iowa to put money in my credit union While I was there I washed my big rug at a laundromat. It came out nice. 

I did two lessons this morning for National Able. That's a program that helps poor old people. I fit right in.

I only make minimum wage, working for them. That's $7.35/hr. in Iowa. In California, it's $16.00/hr. A little more money is all that I need.

I would like to go to Nashville next October to attend the Bitcoin Conference. I'm hoping to make headway with finding my lost Bitcoins. I should find some people who go back to 2010 as well as me.

I might also run into someone from Github

I could also network about working with Linux and Bitcoin.

 More troubles with the new computer. I got it up to 32 gig on memory and it quits. The display quits. I got it working with 28 gig but that seems to be the limit. I might have to replace the power supply; which I could. 

I've got a class on Likened today. I need to straighten it up. At some time I said that I was a financial advisor but I'm not licensed. I could probably do as well as anyone but I wouldn't want the responsibility. People need to do their own research.

Michal Saylor on why bitcoin is the only investment

 I'm going to link a YouTube video by Saylor on why Bitcoin is the only worthwhile now.



I seemed to have lost most of my text. I think they are censoring me as I write.

I think this is the video I was thinking about.

I was watching someone else on YouTube today and he stressed something about distractions. He used a clip from the movie " The Matrix". It involved a woman in a red dress. The point was that we can be pulled off of our rightful course by an attractive distraction that can make us obsessive and waste our time. That has definitely happened to me.

 I haven't blogged for a week now. I've been busy with National able classes and such. 

Tonight, I'm trying to get my Bitcoin Core to be unencrypted. I tried to encrypt it and then unencrypt it to get it to load my private key. 

I don't know if I can get it going but I must try. I just loaded Grammarly, and it interferes with my writing; at least it corrects my spelling, which I need help with. 

I doubt if it will help me get viewers since I'm probably blocked anyway.

It was a super hot day and my cars air conditioner didn't work so I was super sweaty. At Starbucks I spilled a carmel latte all over myself I bought some clothes at Target to replace the sweaty, Latte soaked ones.

The rally was something of a bust. We waited for Trump for a couple of hours in a hot building. We were all hot and sweaty so I fit right in.

He also races his resurected rides at races where it's normal to drive old cars. One of the races he was in had a requirement that nobody could spend more that $3000 for their ride. Maybe I could get involved with this sort of thing. It would be fun and maybe not cost much.

I forgot to post this yesterday;I'm sorry.

I went to a parade today. It was some fun. They threw a lot of candy at me but I ignored it since I'm diabetic. 

I picked up a bicycle from a repair shop in Storm Lake today.I's looking good and it rode well. It cost me $180 but did a good job. Now I've got 2 bicycles. I'll sell the one I don't like so much in a garage sale.  Maybe next week. 

I might get a job as an IT tech, we'll see. I sent off my resume. 

I'll link up with "Vice Grip Garage" I got it on the next post.

Woke MELTDOWN as SCOTUS CRUSHES Affirmative Action!!!

Not much happened here today.

 I fixed the vacumn cleaner. The belt broke when I sucked up a venitian blind string.  The hardware store didn't have the belt so I ordered it from Amazon.

I had a large quanity of dead flies to vacumn up. It turned out that they were coming from the drains. Someone told me to pore boiling water down the drains because flies tend to breed there. It worked; the fly population plummeted but I had to get rid of the dead ones. Hench the broken vacumn.

I got some exercise at the Rec Center. It's an old school buiding and I climb the stairs for exercise. It's about time that I get back to doing that. 

That's about all that happened today.

I went to Sioux City today.

 I went to a dentist in Sioux City today to have a tooth examined for a root canal. 

It turned out that I could either have it extracted or have a root canal. I decided to have it extracted. It only costs around $200 to extract it and it costs $2000 for a root canal. I'll just go the cheap route. 

I've got a bicycle in a repair shop in Storm Lake. It should be done by now. I'll call them tomorrow and find out how it's going. 

I also need to find out if I'm getting a job with a government program called National Able. I would love to get an IT certificate and start working for over $20/hr. 

So far, I'm still using a bank and a credit union for my bill payments and such. I'm still concerned about bank failures and such but I haven't done anything about it, yet.

On that note, I'll post the last image of an etching I want to sell and sign off.

I don't know why so many people are reading my blog

 Apparently hundreds of people are reading my blog. I don't know why. Maybe more people are reading blogs than they were a couple of yeares ago when I pretty much stopped blogging. 

I still need to get the spell check workig. I don't know if I need two g's in blogging or should it be bloging. 

I talked with my new counselor this morning. I was more honest about what is going on with me than I have ever been. It's probably stupid on my part. 

I quit using Facebook because they sent me a notice that they would be able to search my computers if I used them. Now it's hard to share videos since I don't have access to Facebook. I'll keep an eye open on Youtube for good videos. 

It's good to see the Bidens be investigated for corruption. I hope we can clean up the nation.

Tomorrow I get my teeth checked for a root canal. I don't know how I'll pay for it. Maybe I can get it on the Iowa Veterans Trust Fund. It'll take months but it's worth it. 

I think I'll show another picture (an etching by Malcolm Childers). I want to sell these three etchings. Maybe that would help me with money for my rotten teeth.

I'm going to try to force myself to blog every day.

  Mostly for self improvement I'm going to blog every day. 

I couldn't get the spell check to work.  And I went to Ad Sense to check out some new thing they had and I got very confused. It has something to do with private messaging in Europe.

Back to blogging.I talked with my shrink this morning and I was more honest then I've ever been with a shrink. Maybe it'll do some good but I doubt it.

I think I just have to face that a lot I experience is a hallucination or I just live a strange life. Maybe it's both.

I didn't call the lady who helped me fill out forms for the National Able program. I was busy with talking with my shrink and such. I really didn't get much done at all.

I think I'll post one of the pictures I'm trying to sell and call it a day. I would like to get back to YouTube.

Alux shamed me into restarting my blog

 It's Sunday I'm watching ALUX again on Youtube. They had 15 inexpensive ways to start making money. 

One of them was to start a blog. They also mentioned writing a book. I started one of those as well. 

I just don't stick with things. I think I've already tried half of the things they mentioned. I'm just so flaky that I never get things done. My mental illness might be a major part of why this happens. 

I get to thinking about things that probably never happened.

I just finished mowing the lawn. Even though it rained last night it's getting dry. I've been watereing the new trees and the garden plus a few flowers in the front. The only place that the grass is growing is where I've been watering.

Tomorrow I should find out if I've got a job. I applied for something called National Able. It's for elderly disabled people to improve themselves. I'm schiztophrenic and 75 so I should qualify. I'll call the lady who had me fill out forms tomorrow and see if they are taking me. 

I'm watching Vice Grip Garage on Youtube so I'll sign off here.

Back to Blogging

 It's been over a year since I've been on blogger. It's time that I get back.

I've always used this more as a journal than anything else; since I can be reasonably certain that nobody will be reading it anyway.

I'm concerned about the long-awaited banking crisis. Tomorrow I'll be transfering my social security deposits to Robinhood.  I feel that, that will be safer than a bank. I'll have to make sure that I can use my Robinhood debit card to pay my bills. But I feel safer with them than a bank or credit union.

I'm also starting my garden tomorrow. The ground may still be frozen but I can stake it out. One of the reasons that I wanted to move here was to have a lot of space to put in a large garden. 

I'm going to quit my job Monday. Running up and down those stairs has gotten rather old and I'm not making much at it anyway. Time to move on.

I'm going to Jacksonville in a few months to see if I can find my lost Bitcoins. Like everything else about  Bitcoin it's a high risk but potentionally immensely profitable proposition. I'm going after the garage sale which I hope will help pay for the trip. Right now I'm thinking about just driving as it appears to cost about the same as flying or taking a bus. I'm going to have to look into flying some more since it seems that going round-trip should be cheaper by plane.

Time to go to the airplane ticket places on the internet.

That's all I have for now. Later
