Cut back a lot

I used to do doordash, but these days not so much. I will do it if it is worth it, but lately they have not been worth it. So, I just stay home then waste gas. Gas is too expensive for me. Thank God I don’t live in California because that would be way out of my budget.

As far as technology, the whole job is technology because I use my cellphone to do the job. It guides me to the restaurant, then to the customer’s home where i drop off the food. Sometimes, it is worth it when we can make $20 a job, but with gas prices through the roof. It is seldomly worth it. Tucson people do not want to pay that much for delivery, so they offer three dollars for a ten mile job. I am like no way. Let some other person do this one. Now, when gas is cheaper maybe I will take one that is 5 miles for 4 dollars, but my rule of thumb is equal miles for equal cash. If it is seven miles, I expect 7 to 8 dollars. That is only fair. Thank you for reading. Have a great night.

Saying no to interfering with goals:

It is getting hotter in Southern Arizona. I am very tired. So, I sleep a lot more, to get through the hottest parts of the day. It was 100 degrees and counting in Southern AZ. This is the earliest it has ever been 100 degrees, in March. So, goals will have to take a back seat for right now. The only time I want to do things is at night and Southern Arizona is an early town, which means places close early. I am a late night type of person, so that doesn’t jive with Southern Arizona. So, I will focus on my goals later. When, it starts to cool down. So, in essence the only person that is interfering with my goals is the weather and me. Thank you for reading. Have a good night.

Hot days are plenty.

Special skill not so much

Ever since, my injury of being shot in the head, I have not been good at math. I tried, but in college, I only got as far as College Algebra and that is it. The special skill I want is being good at math. If I was good at math. I could be an engineer, which would be cool.
I like to read and write so I guess I could do something with these skills. Thank you for reading. Have a great night.

My favorite again

My favorite weather is around 70 or 80 degrees and it can’t be raining because in Southern Arizona it rains like crazy. So I like it 70 or 80 degrees with the sun out.

The weather in this picture was perfect, around 70 or 80 degrees. Thank you for reading. Have a great night.

One of my favorites-

A long time ago, I went into the social services area of study at Pima College. The man that peaked my interest in social services was Mark Homan. He was the head of the social services sector at Pima College and he was also a teacher there at Pima College. The reason why I liked Mark Homan was because he was all about change. If you are not happy about your situation change it. He was really into implementation. He once said, if you want something to change you need to put action into the change. Without action, it will stay a problem. You need to break the action down into doable goals.

He also said, there is power in the number of people that come to an event. Yet, with the current administration, they have held events all over the USA, but the events have done nothing. I guess, we are going to have to wait until the midterms. This is when the Democrats will take over the house of representatives and maybe the Senate too. Then, I think Trump will have little power to do what he wants, but he is lawless. He does things without running them by Congress all the time. Such as, the war against Iran. He didn’t get Congressional approval to go to war. Only Congress can start wars, but this president started a war. He thought it would be over quickly, but the war keeps dragging on and on. He wants Iran to surrender, but they will not, so the war continues. While, the whole middle east is in chaos. Iran has said, it will allow countries to use the Straight of Harmus, except the USA and Israel. While, gas prices spike in the USA to over $4.25 a gallon and more in CA. A barrel of oil now costs $108. Trump has warned Iran if they don’t open the Straight of Harmus to US ships. It will bomb their oil facilities and everything will be gone. We will see if Trump does just that.

In other news, that monkey at that Tokyo zoo, Punch the monkey, who has captured the eye of the world. He was shunned by his mother and the other monkeys. So the zoo gave him a stuffed animal and it shows him dragging that stuffed animal all over the compound. Well, now things have changed for Punch the monkey. He has a girlfriend. On David Muir World News. It showed Punch kissing his girlfriend. I bet now, there will be little Punches in the compound. Thank you for reading. Have a good night.

Wish upon the moon

Yes I wish upon the moon that I can read more. I love to read. I don’t have enough time to read. I am doing something all the time. I think i have to stop going to bed so late, but that’s a little hard because I am a night owl. I can’t change that. Well, maybe sometime in the future I will change that. For now, I will be a night owl. Thank you for reading. Have a nice night.

Wired

This is my life. I am always wired from coffee. I drink a lot of coffee each day, to ward off depression because of the disability. My left arm doesn’t function correctly and I walk with a limp. So, one way I deal with the lows, is get a cup of coffee. It seems to lift my spirits up. Thank you for reading. Have a great night.

Best compliment:

When I played shaker at the sky bar. The people there used to say, I play a great shaker. I thought that was awesome to hear because I tried my hardest to keep a steady beat for the guitars or drummers I was playing with. Or, if I did a solo with the shaker, just singing and playing the shaker. I did my best to do a good job. Thank you for reading. Have a great night. This is a picture of my shaker.

This is how I would do a cross country trip

I would rent a car and do the cross country trip. I would not take a plane. Let me explain, the TSA agents are not getting paid because of a partial shut down which is affecting their paychecks. So, a number of them are quitting because of no pay. TSA stands for transportation security agent or officer (tso) and they are on the front line. They make sure everyone is checked before boarding the plane. They work with the scanners, check ID’s, check boarding passes etc. They are a vital part of the airport. So, without adequate TSA agents. The airport doesn’t run smoothly and getting on a plane will take forever. So, I would rather drive cross country because I can see the whole country.
I probably would do it during the summer. Right now, parts of the country, still have snow and sleet. Also, there are really bad dust storms going on in parts of the country. So later might be better. Thank you for reading. Have a great night.
