My core has left the building
Jan. 20th, 2020 03:32 pmI am old and out of shape and fat. And I skipped all those 'build up your core' situations my entire life and now, my core is no longer available for use. I just spent an hour and a half cutting out fabric on my kitchen counter. My core lasted an hour. Owwwww I just don't have it any more. It's even worse when I work on lower surfaces like folding laundry on the bed. Ugh.
I know, I know, I know. I should work on it. Build it up as best I can. But, I won't. I'll just come here and bitch about it.
I took my car load to Goodwill. They were having a sale and the parking lot was packed. But the car is empty and I can now start my next Goodwill collection.
I discovered today that the network that broadcasts the Mariner games on TV has posted the schedule of which Spring Training games they will be broadcasting. The first one is on Sunday, February 23. I made a note today on the calendar to remember to upgrade my cable TV package before then.
I did the now annual Hunt For A Better/Cheaper way to watch the Mariner games on TV. The options available to me really suck. So I'll stick with the plan again this year and hope for better. I dread the cable bills.
I cut out the pieces for the cat tunic today - see aching back above. I decided for the long sleeved version, I would make it blue with the front out of the cat fabric. That will leave me enough of the expensive fabric to make an all (or most) cat short sleeved version.
I got an email the other day telling me my web cams were online. Since I put them there, it was not that much of a shock. The person said "I want to know more." Because I was feeling chatty, I responded asking what they more they wanted to know. "are those cameras really active?" well, er, yes. We had a few more exchanges like this. The person never revealing any info about his or herself and/or why they were entitled to my answers or even why they wanted to know. I kept my answers short.
Today I got an email from the same person with 'a little feedback for you'. Turns out I am mean and rude and a fucking dumbass and a dipfuck.
The good news is that my compensation is not performance based so this evaluation really does not mean much. Maybe the evaluator got some satisfaction from telling me off. I sure hope so. I'd like to think I'm a giver.
Now I'm going to be a knitter.
Oh - kitty pic.
The Smalls on top of the fabric of The Smalls and Biggie and Stickie. Biggie tried to get in on the action but got distracted.

Date: 2020-01-20 11:52 pm (UTC)Links to my webcams are sprinkled around places - all public. I've never hidden their access.
I have heard from random clueless people in the past but honestly, I think this person kind of resets the bar.

Date: 2020-01-21 03:52 am (UTC)I like your cams because your space is so colorful, and I like to figure out which one is delayed (seems to be the one mounted over the kitchen). But yeah, I'd probably have responded to him with a nice double bird.

Date: 2020-01-21 03:59 am (UTC)I will say that except for a very very few dipfucks like this one, the vast majority of people who watch my cams are either invisible to me or really really nice about it.
The delays are caused by Nest and they alternate between the cams depending on which one was rebooted last - I actually rarely reboot. My brother points out that the delays really work for cat watching. When one does something fun, he can wait a second or two and see it again!

Date: 2020-01-21 04:10 am (UTC)I have no idea how he found the cams but they really are not hidden. They turn up on odd web cam sites a fair amount. From time to time I get warnings in email or twitter that my webcam is public. I explain that since I set them up, I know they are public as that was my intent. That's usually the end of the convo.
Nasty person who left feedback

My adding was accidental because I remembered the knee curls wrong, but I like what I accidentally made up so I kept them. So, the stuff in this video minus the stair stepping, plus:
- arms on the poolside wall bringing my knees straight up
- same but bringing my knees up the left side and right side
Those two are similar to exercises you might see serious gymnasts do when hanging from rings, but I can do them because they're in the water.
