 Tuesday - late morning

The youngest' birthday today, I didn't get up to see him out.  I went to bed late last night, just because I wanted to. Didn't get out of bed, wait for it, until....9:30 am lol. It was raining so I just said no thanks and went back to sleep.  Well, not just rain, but thunder/lightning as well.  Like, scare the dogs type of thunder.

Anyway, today is an election day in Texas, I have printed out who I am voting for, there is a lot on the ballot.  Going there, dump more money into the business account at the bank, go check on the new people at the park and probably try to get something done over there. 

Oh, Facebook. Yup, I was scrolling Facebook earlier and it logged me out . Great, I thought, I've been hacked.  I've seen it happening to other people lately and the person/people hacking put some pretty uncharacteristic stuff on their FB wall, to the point you know it isn't that person.  

However, I asked Taylor and hers was out as well.  I then googled it and sure enough, a lot of people have been logged out of Facebook on some error.  Mine finally came back up on my phone, but still can't access it on my computer.  No huge deal, I mostly look at Facebook on my phone anyway.  I like to be on the desktop if I'm writing longer responses to people, otherwise the phone works fine.  

SCOTUS said no thanks to Colorado's determination to keep Trump off of the ballot.  That ruling is a national one, none of the states can do that.  You can hate Trump all you want, but if this ruling from a lower court would have stood, it would have started a cascading event with every state, or many anyway  - my guess here of course - doing the same thing on their ballots. You would have states such as Texas saying Biden can't be on the ballot and probably use the reasoning that he's a traitor, therefore, he can't be on it.  Remember, Trump was never prosecuted, stood trial or found guilty of inciting an insurrection.

Why? because there was no insurrection.  I don't care what anyone thinks, you don't show up to a government building in DC and attempt to take over Washington without any weapons, armament, etc.  There might have been rioting there, but there was no attempt at an insurrection.  I could go on with my reasoning, but I am not going to waste my time. I have been in these types of arguments with leftists and it never goes anywhere. Almost always, the leftists will start calling you names, cussing you out and engaging in ridiculous denigration to the point you wonder how these people can function in this society. Believe what you wish.

Anyway, the farmer couple that showed up yesterday is taken care of. They're only staying a month but I'll take whatever I can get.  Another guy just now called me, said he's at the entrance and can he take a look? Sure thing.  I don't know if he's going to take it, I certainly hope so, that would put me back on track with finances and paying the property taxes later on this month.  Actually, if I can get the 2 remaining lots rented before the end of the month, it's good to go for paying the property taxes. If not, I'm going to have to hunker down and make a decision. I'm not going to let this situation get loaded with increasing fees and potentially at some point, someone paying it for me and then I have to pay a lot more money to get out of this situation.  

He's not there with a trailer, he wanted to look first. Sure thing, hopefully he'll take one of the back in sites, my pull throughs are occupied excepting lot 2 which has people coming in 3 days from now, they'll be there almost 3 weeks.  Back-in lots are all I have available ATM.  They aren't necessarily "bad", but some people prefer and others demand pull throughs.  I couldn't have made them all pull throughs without creating an additional driveway at great expense.  

This is the way people do it a lot, lol, they just show up without any prior notification. I have it on my ads that you can come and take a look!  I do not say they have to call first, I just think that would turn people off.  I don't care if I'm not there, they can inspect the place without any pressure whatsoever and make their own decisions.  I see no upside to attempting to talk someone into take a spot they may not like.  I'm not of the used-car-salesman mentality anyway.  But it is encouraging that people are showing up and my ad has actually been viewed by thousands of people, at least according to Meta reporting.  

I get those lots filled, hopefully, I'll shut the FB ad down before it was scheduled to be shut down. They're not free but they're definitely not pricey or even mildly expensive.  

Anyway, it's kinda getting late and I'd like to get this day moving.  Especially with voting.

G'day








 Saturday - late afternoon I did not get up early since I had second load and was really deep in sleep again.  Like, this all seems to have ...
