My non-political side: mystery novels, good television, easy-to-make recipes, bread, my dog Zeus and German Shepherds where ever they may be. A good cup of coffee. Snarky humor.

I just got a new harness for Zeus. He wore out the old one after four years. I got a free gift worth $20 with my order. Item below. A PDF with some templates for labels! 🤣 It was even an editable PDF. I could do this easier in Word. I blurred out the vendor. I like the harness a lot.

It is harder for me to get eye drops for Zeus, than for me to get meds for myself. I have to send an ORIGINAL prescription in the mail. No copies. We are talking about a dog.

My first attempt at sandwich bread. Pretty straight forward. I think I over proofed it a bit the final loaf did rise during baking as far as I thought it should. But it tastes good! I'm happy.
Recipe if again from Preppy Kitchen. I like his stuff.

You know you're old when you really like using this. I had to get a power strip from out behind my entertainment unit, where it had been for about 7 years. Thank you for this tool.

What do you want me to say about thermal underwear?
Note: I really don't think my opinion matters. But thanks for trying to make me feel important.

A friend recommended "The Floor", currently in its 2nd season on Fox. I found it on Tubi streamer. Simple, fast paced. The game goes 10 episodes with one winner at the end. Trivia games don't do it for me, but this is really fun.

Playing Meridian 157 Chapter 1. Nice game with some interesting puzzles. Be warned no explanations for what you should do for the puzzle and no reset, which makes it more difficult. So far so good.

Zeus takes a nap after a tough day. He doesn't use his crate very often, only for short naps.

Enjoying Day of the Jacal on Peacock. Not a remake of the movie, inspired by then novel with an updated plot to current period. I thought it was about to end, but there is at least one more episode. Binge to catch up.

The good news. Just over 200 lbs. this morning.
The bad news. I was at 196 lbs. last Wednesday.
Hoping to stay under 200 at the end of the year.
