May 15, 2013 Wednesday Afternoon

Can you believe it is the middle of May already?  Days just fly by.

This morning I was up by 7 AM.  Fed the dogs, gave Vito his shot and got Tony off to work.  Spent the early morning reading the newspaper.  Showered and went to McDonald's for breakfast on my way to Pick N Save to do the weekly grocery shopping.  Got home by 11 AM and started some laundry and little projects around the house.  Laid on the deck with the dogs for an hour before I decided to pad up my shoes and boot and go for a walk.  Went for a short walk to the top off the bluff over looking the river.  Walked about 2 blocks on top of the bluff stopping every once in a while to just look at the nature.  I sure miss my walks and it killed me not to be down by the river.  Took an anti inflammatory and pain pill prior to the walk which was a good thing because my foot was hurting by the time I got home.  Not easy to walk in a boot and you use a lot more energy and hip action just to try to walk.  Was nice to get out of the house and back to the paths / trails.  Hope soon I can go for a full walk down by the river.  I do go back to the foot doctor tomorrow so I will know more then.  Making some chicken cordon blue and rice with a salad for supper tonight.  Will most likely spend the night watching TV from the DVR.  It was in the 70s and sunny today in Milwaukee.  Very nice day with a breeze off the lake.  Love this weather.  Remind me of this in the middle of the Summer when I complain about the heat.  Soon we will start going to car shows again for supper as the weather gets better.  Will be nice to get a break from cooking.  So many times I look into the full freezer and just don't know what to make for supper.  Congratulations to Minnesota for allowing gay marriage.  I still can not believe there are now 12 states that allow gay marriage.  Who would have thought in our lifetime's.  I still dream some day Tony and I will be able to legally get married.  With Scott Walker as our Governor it will never happen.  He is too deep in the tea party pockets.

  1. You don't have to wait for Wisconsin to become enlightened about gay marriage. After August 1st, go to Minnesota for a few days and get married.. Simple as that. Screw Scott Walker :)

    1. Unfortunately it don't work like that. Wiscosnin will still not recognize it as a legal marriage.

  2. So what? Eventually, the Supreme Court will overturn the Defense of Marriage Act and gay marriages performed anywhere in the country will be recognized by the federal government regardless of where you live.

    Besides, getting married isn't just about having one state recognize the union---it's about you and your partner making a statement.

  3. I agree to a point. But since we already had a Holy Union 20 years ago, I want it to be a legal marriage this next time. All the same rights and legal stuff.
