Back to Basics

 

It occurred to me since my previous post that I did have one further thing to write about concerning my early a.m. five-mile walk that day. There was a point when I was doing some slow jogging along 100th Avenue as I travelled the section from Green Timbers Access (Google Map) to 148th Street, and to my immediate right in the shrubbery I could hear more than one creature communicating with a sort of clacking, chirping sound.

It was somewhat unnerving.

I assumed it to be raccoons, but nevertheless I did glance behind me at least a couple of times after I had passed by the spot just in case something gave chase.

Anyway, since I was not going to rise this morning until 4 a.m., I never got to bed until after 10 p.m. My younger brother had not shown up from his daily socializing until nearly 10 p.m., so I shut myself up into my bedroom so as not to be involved with him.

My youngest stepson was home and in the kitchen; I heard my drunken brother and him bantering for a bit. Likely my brother made jocular query as to the 25-year-old's involvement with the lad's girlfriend, perhaps ribbing him as to whether the lad was about to imminently make things permanent.

I had the usual night of it, feeling as if I was having wakeful periods that were almost as long as my bouts of sleep. But when my 4 a.m. cellphone alarm chimed, I was okay to be getting up.

I fixed up a lovely mug of well-doctored hot instant coffee, and then was soon shut back up into my bedroom because my eldest stepson rose around 4:30 a.m., facing another 12-hour shift that would begin at 6 a.m.

I didn't want him to know that I was up ─ I want to keep him trained to lock the front door when he leaves for work on such day shifts.

But this robbed me of the chance to have some early exercising out in the backyard tool shed. By the time he left for work, I had no time. I needed to ready as fast as I could to get away on a five-mile walk by no later than 6 a.m. so that on the return leg of the walk, I could get some grocery shopping done at the Save-On-Foods about a mile from here. It opens at 7 a.m., but I don't like showing up until after 7:30 a.m. when I can be assured that a cashier is on duty.

I only managed to be on my way less than five minutes ahead of 6 a.m., but that was fine. However, I would be walking into the rising Sun for the first half of my walk, basically.

I had to withdraw $200 from one of my financial institution's ATMs because I only had something like $55 in cash on me, and I make it a point now of only paying cash when I do any shopping in person.

That walk ─ and the heavy loads in two carrying bags I had brought for my groceries ─ have been the only exercise I have gotten today. I sunned for 1¼ hours this afternoon; and also had a lengthy bath. Betwixt those and two blog posts, I am left with no exercise time.

Last evening I did watch an episode of one of the shows that I follow ─ Prodigal Son. It was season one's episode 10 ("Silent Night"). I was quite tickled to find a familiar guest star. The name Sean Pertwee meant nothing to me, but I almost immediately recognized him as having portrayed Alfred Pennyworth in the T.V. series Gotham. In Prodigal Son, he played a former disgraced cop, and I hoped that his character was going to become recurring; but they killed him off.

I also watched a women's MMA match on YouTube that just managed to exceed a half hour. It apparently took place on July 21, 2018, and featured a championship bout between Finland's Minna Grusander and American Jinh Yu Frey.

I had no idea who won that match, so I was expecting Minna would take the belt when it was over, for she had dominated four of the five rounds, always advancing and forcing Jinh to almost constantly back away from the indomitable toughie despite Jinh being essentially 'ripped' or 'cut'. Jinh looked so well-muscled.

Nothing Jinh did seemed to faze Minna, apart from the third round when Jinh took her down and pretty well dominated the action on the mat. Other than that round, I felt Minna had the others ─ and Jinh seemed wiped out in the fifth round, barely able to fight the enduring Minna.

Minna was robbed. Jinh did not deserve to be given the belt that night ─ and it was she to whom I was the most attracted, so clearly I am not playing any favourite by saying the fight should have been given to Minna.

Oh, Lord ─ it is after 8 p.m., and I must wrap up this post. I have an early (I will be rising at 1:45 a.m.) five-mile walk planned ─ it will be my ninth consecutive day of five-mile walks. But that is providing that my brother does not return home from his daily socializing by 9 p.m. I am expecting that he will not.

I only want to mention two videos that we watched this morning on T.V. via our Android TV Box.

The first was Odessa Orlewicz's latest from yesterday ─ it was only 16 minutes long, and 'sequeled' a video from the day before: PART 2! Share Widely! MORE Schools Caught Handing Out The Dirty Porn "Pee and Poo On Each Other Cards." This was NOT a "MISTAKE." 

PART 2! Must watch !! The schools teaching kids to sh!t and p!ss & suck sp00ge out of butt h0les has happened NUMEROUS TIMES at different schools before! Don't let mainstream news/NDP tell you it was a one time mistake!! I show you it ISN'T. SHARE WIDELY. Get AHEAD of the MSM BS narratives.

The video is also at Rumble here.

The second video was not too short of 1½ hours (1:20:03), and had been added to Rumble's Children's Health Defense Canada channel three days ago: Back To Basics Series: Glyphosate 101.

In PART 2 of our Back To Basics Series, we start from the very beginning for those of you new to all sorts of health related topics and make it as easy as possible to understand. In our current times of being bombarded by conflicting information, we want to bring you ways to simply understand the topics that drastically affect the health of you, and your families.
In Glyphosate 101 Amanda Forbes sits down with Howard Vlieger. Howard has been a 'student of the soil' since 1989. He has been a crop nutrition adviser and has founded two companies to help family farmers reduce their dependency on chemical-based farming and transition to biological and/or organic production. Howard now works and teaches as an independent crop nutrition advisor, helping both crop and livestock farmers all across the U.S.

Howard works with scientists and researchers around the world to develop effective solutions, based on the latest science, for the real-life problems farmers are experiencing because of GMO crops and glyphosate. Howard is a co-author and the primary coordinator of a first of its kind scientific study: the feeding of GMO grain and non-GMO grain to hogs for their lifetime as a meat animal. Howard is an internationally recognized speaker on the topic of GMOs.

Good stuff!

Okay, I have to duck out here!
