Chronicling life in Sac City, Iowa. Fixing old laptop computers, and dealing with poverty while prepping for the financial collapse.
Tuesday, October 3, 2023
I don't have much to say today. I went to an online class about Microsoft Outlook, I paid my rent and went to my coffee club. That's enough excitement for today.
As usual, I'll load a YouTube video. I'll see what looks good.
This is a different take on an old Simon and Garfunkle song. I like it.
RFK Jr. announced a major speech soon. Everybody thinks he's going with a third party. This should destroy the Democrats. He'll siphon off a lot of the Democrat voters from Biden. He's come out against the 9/11 cover-up so I'll leave a video on that.
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 watched this one yet but it looks good. Maybe it'll be censored as well.
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.
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.
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.
