It's the brutal truth ─ like it or not!
I think that it was likely no later than 9:30 p.m. when I got to bed last evening, with my cellphone alarm set for 2 a.m. and my planned walk here in north Surrey. I also had my brother's monthly expenses reconciliation cheque to deposit into my chequing account ─ a much needed sum of well over $300.
After rising to my cellphone alarm, I was to have considerable trouble prying the clasp of my Texas Wildcat boot knife sheath wide enough to fit over both the waist of my jeans and belt. I don't wear the knife on a boot, for the tops of my hikers are too thick ─ I would need to be wearing something like a cowboy boot.
My fingers are so damned weak now, prying that clasp wide enough to just accommodate my jeans and a belt is truly a struggle, and last night it was especially so.
Because of this delay, I failed to be on my way by 2:15 a.m., my target ─ it was a minute or two later than that.
My eldest stepson was still up, but I believe that I got away unnoticed.
As usual, I stopped at a relatively nearby elementary school playground to engage four sets of pull-ups on the gymnastics-style rings set up there, and managed what has become my norm for repetitions: 6 - 2 - 2 - 2. But it was a struggle.
I nearly deposited my cheque into the early part of my walk that was to probably be at least 5¾ miles, but I detoured just short of doing so. It occurred to me that my wife ─ who had not come home by the time I had left ─ could well be gambling in a casino. I felt that I would be a fool to deposit the cheque so early into my walk when the funds might be thereafter accessed by my albatross of a wife.
I really have little else worth mentioning about the walk, except that I did make the deposit on the latter leg of the hike. And it was something like 4:23 a.m. by the time I was back home and outside the locked front door. The deposit had been made around 4 a.m.
My wife was still not home, incidentally. She never did show up today (she has been away since she left to go to work in the latter morning of Friday past).
I ensured that I made an online credit card payment of $150 ─ a credit card that my wife is 100% responsible for having maxed out to just past its $10,000 limit last year, and which I thereafter froze and have slowly been paying down ever since.
It is not the only such card.
Anyway, I was back to bed just ahead of 5 a.m.
My morning was to begin around 8:30 a.m., and I actually accessed the T.V. ahead of my younger brother who rose especially late this morning. He was not downstairs until around 9 a.m.
And so we were to watch nothing but video fare of my choosing. Employing our Android TV Box, I began things with Odessa Orlewicz's extremely helpful production of yesterday ─ my brother and I have been wrestling with which candidates to vote for in the municipal election that has early voting as of tomorrow (official voting day is October 15).
The video was a few seconds over 49 minutes in length: Vote For THIS Mayor And Councillers In Surrey, BC By Oct 15th! Share With All Surrey Residents!
You want change? Then vote for THIS team of extraordinary people. I interview this fabulous team! Standing up for FAMILY, YOUR FAITH, and MEDICAL FREEDOM in Surrey, BC https://www.surrey.ca/2022-municipal-election ; www.peoplescouncilsurrey.ca
My brother and I will be voting for all of the candidates in that party for mayor and councillors ─ we are just disappointed that the party is not also running school trustees.
However, their Facebook account endorses the school trustees vetted by ParentsVoice BC, so we shall be doing that. Only four trustee candidates are mentioned, and six must be elected; but I had previously found that a group called Culture Guard endorsed four as well, two of which are also endorsed by ParentsVoice BC.
So all my brother and I need to do is include the two (Dupinder Saran and Nasima Nastoh) not included in the endorsement by ParentsVoice BC, and we have our required six.
We are now all set to vote!
Incidentally, Wikipedia has an article on this election: 2022 British Columbia municipal elections.
The next video that we were to watch was also quite short (43:58) ─ Christopher James' (A Warrior Calls) upload to Rumble of yesterday: Trust Is Shattered.
Christopher covered a number of topics, as he usually does when he does not have a guest to interview.
The third video my brother and I watched was nearly an hour (59:57), and was uploaded to Rumble back in the Spring: Out of Babylon with David Straight - Part 6.
SHARE SHARE SHARE!!
It is important to wake the masses!
This is part 6 of a series of 8 videos presented by David Straight from the Out of Babylon Conference hosted at Church of Glad Tidings June 4-6, 2021.

We previously watched the other six videos in the American Common Law series ─ there are a total of eight, so we have two to go.
This one mentioned two intriguing topics that my brother and I had never before heard anything about, but David Straight did not go into depth and now we are adrift, wanting to know more. But you can watch the video for yourself to learn what I am referring to.
The only other thing worth mentioning that my brother and I were to watch was an episode of The Conners ─ episode six ("Young Love, Old Love and Take This Job and Shove It") of season four.
My brother thereafter sought some bed rest; and I soon enough did similarly. Following my nap, he had gone for the day.
The sky was hazed over, and at times there must have been clouds as well, because for lengthy periods shadows were nearly indistinguishable. Even so, I did sit out in the backyard facing toward the location of the Sun beginning at 2:29 p.m. for 65 minutes or so. I was barefooted, but otherwise fully clothed ─ no bare torso and cut-offs this time. It was cool enough for awhile that I would have been uncomfortable if I was not fully dressed.
We shall see what tomorrow brings.
I have nothing planned for the early a.m., so I will be sitting up this evening to watch T.V. with my brother once he is home ─ and to have a couple of cans of the strong (8% alcohol) malt that I try to keep myself stocked with.
