While I was up overnight from approximately midnight till at least 4:30 a.m. working on various tasks here at my computer, my wife arrived home around 3 a.m. I think that she had likely had to work the prior afternoon with a 4 p.m. start at the Thai restaurant where she is employed part-time, but I was napping when she had disappeared.
As was the case the previous morning when I retired around the same time, I had a wicked time getting to sleep. And after I finally did, my slight anxiety about ensuring that I did not somehow oversleep and fail to rise in time to join my younger brother downstairs at 10 a.m. to put our Android TV Box into operation, ensured that I only had perhaps one snatch of sleep after I checked the time at 8 a.m., for I was up for the morning well ahead of 9 a.m.
I wanted my brother and I to watch the first in a series of videos being aired between March 2 - 10 that feature various guests being interviewed by either Odessa Orlewicz or Mark Friesen; and the two interviewees last evening were Marc Morano and Dr. Carrie Madej.
The conjoined show was just over two hours in duration, and can be found at Odessa's Facebook account as Premiere! The Great Reset Summit - Episode 1 - Marc Morano & Dr. Carrie Madej.
However, the two separate videos are available at Librti.com as follows:
- Marc Morano - Climate Hoax, The Same Strategy with WuFlu - Great Reset Summit (Mark Friesen hosting • 49:53)
- Dr. Carrie Madej - The Covid Vaccine: Why You Should Think Twice About Taking It (Odessa Orlewicz hosting • 40:00)
As my brother and I watched the Marc Morano interview that aired first, I caught three clues that the interview was not recorded at all recently, and so my final estimate was that it was likely recorded at least as far back as the first 11 days of December.
Odessa was to later ask Mark Friesen when he actually did have the interview of Marc Morano, and he did not specifically remember, but suggested that it might have been as far back as November.
Nevertheless, I still believe that it was recorded in December as I defined.
I believe that the Dr. Carrie Madej interview is most probably current, for Odessa has been saying in the past few days how much she was looking forward to conducting it because she had never before had an opportunity to meet with the lovely doctor.
As well, I have seen all of Odessa's posted videos ever since I 'discovered' her back sometime in November, whereas Mark Friesen ("The Grizzly Patriot") is entirely new to me.
Due to how long the conjoined episode was that my brother and I watched, when it was done he felt he only had time for something short, so I tuned in an episode of Bless This Mess. When it was done, my brother went upstairs to his bedroom to rest up, for Wednesdays are usually his day to catch a bus and hook up with at least one or two of his drinking buddies at (I believe) the Green Timbers Pub.
As a result of his destination, I do not expect him to be back home this evening until after 9 p.m., so I am going to have the opportunity to watch one of the series that I follow on my own, and enjoy a strong (8% alcohol) beer and maybe even some Malbec wine.
While my brother was taking his rest, I had some exercise out in the backyard toolshed and then I broke my fast. My wife had risen late in the morning, and her presence had inspired me before that meal to go outside to start a trim of two big flowering shrubs that she originally planted a number of years ago, but which have for the past few years begun obscuring our living room window view such that I trim them down before Spring.
This year I was starting a very serious cutting back, and I had done enough for one assault today and was having that meal when my wife got involved. I had planned on having a nap after I ate.
By this point my brother had gone, so he was not privy to what was about to take place.
For some reason, my wife decided to take a hatchet and basically eradicate the two shrubs that were truly quite lovely when they bloomed, one having quite large purple flowers and the other white blooms.
Hummingbirds liked visiting the blooms, as did all manner of bees.
But this is the scene now ─ I took this shot at 4:35 p.m.:
Of course, I was obliged to assist her to break down the branches into sections that would fit into our green compost wheelie bin ─ which had gotten emptied before we started, for today was trash collection day.
In the process of sawing up some thick stems, I managed to have the saw slip and gash open the side of my left thumb right near the edge of the nail.
I said nothing, intending to finish the couple of thick stems I was working on before I went into the house to rinse off the wound and cover it up.
Well, it did not take too long before my wife noticed the dark red blood streaming all across my hand and dripping onto the branches and the ground, so I reckon it did appear rather serious.
Still, I resisted her urgings to immediately go into the house, and I completed what I meant to get done first.
I wrapped it all up in toilet paper and then used some Scotch-type tape to bind it fast, then I managed to get the hand into a heavy work glove. The toilet paper was actually the second wrapping, for the first batch I used was soaked with blood by the time I had any of the tape available.
Anyway, we filled the green bin, and then had to use a couple of other plastic garbage cans for the rest of the shrub sections. You see, my wife was not content to just hack up her two big leafless shrubs. She also attacked a nearby rhododendron bush and removed about half of it at the end of that strip of garden ─ I took these photos at 4:36 p.m.:
It had been snug against the house, but it had never obscured any of the view in the nearly 19 years that my brother and I have lived here ─ my wife only moved in a little more than four years after my brother and I got the house.
Consequently, I not only do not know if the rhododendron will manage to eventually grow over and fill in that open spot, or if the plant itself will even live and thrive. Thus, I am unsure how my brother is going to feel about the trim job when he sees it tomorrow in the daytime.
I took one final photo of a clump of mini-Irises at 4:37 p.m.:
It seems to me that these flowers are only in their prime for about a week before they start wilting, so I thought that it would be best to capture them in their present glory, for it will not last.
How can it already be aster 7:30 p.m.? I have to finish with this post ─ where the heck does the time go?
My wife left this afternoon at 5:38 p.m., and won't be back tonight. Perhaps I will have an easier time of it getting to sleep in the pre-dawn tomorrow when I go back to bed after spending my usual several hours sitting up through the earliest a.m. hours tonight.
But I must say no more.
