I petered out too severely to do aught but remain home last evening ─ possibly I will manage better this evening. Whatever the case, I believe that I was to bed yesterday by 9:30 p.m. to best ensure that I would at least be rested enough that when my 1:45 a.m. alarm sounded to get me up to ready for a five-mile walk, I would be in better spirits than was the case 24 hours earlier.
Unfortunately, after I had eaten a filling supper, my youngest stepson brought me two pieces of pizza from a pie that he had bought from one of the best pizza joints around here ─ Camy's Pizza. I essentially wolfed them down ─ I love Camy's pizzas ─ but did not have the least appetite for them, since I was already replete from the stuffing meal I already had eaten.
I do not much like retiring on warm evenings with an overfull stomach, and I was dreading the worst ─ an aftermath of dehydration and maybe even eventual heartburn (or indigestion).
Oddly, none of that afflicted me ─ not that I slept especially well, but it was a sleep typical for me.
And after being awake for quite some while following a certain amount of sleep, I resisted checking the time, and then my alarm at last chimed.
Upon finally dressing for my outing ─ and this time not wearing my lightweight black denim jacket, but its sleeveless counterpart instead ─ I weighed in at 195 pounds fully attired for the outing. Disappointingly, this was fully three pounds more than I had weighed the previous night.
My upper body was thus clothed with a tee-shirt, a sleeveless tee-shirt quality hoodie, and the sleeveless denim jacket. I was so comfortable in the warm night that I am hence going to dispense with the tee-shirt, and just wear a sleeveless lightweight hoodie beneath the sleeveless denim jacket and have my arms bared to the shoulders.
As for the six sets of pull-ups and chin-ups that mark the earliest portion of my walks when I stop at an elementary school playground, I only just barely managed my typical showing of late: four repetitions in the first set, and two repetitions in each of the remaining five sets. A lot of leg fluttering and even some kicking were required, along with overall body heaving; and although the final pull-up was not quite as complete as I normally strive for, I did hold it at full elevation for an almost agonizing 10-count.
I will hence have to have less to eat at my suppers.
I did feel much better than the previous night, but I was still disinclined to punish myself with any extensive slow jogging. And thus it was that I probably began my walk at 2:17 a.m., and was back outside the locked front door at 4:18 a.m. ─ I like to make the walks in under an hour.
Even so, I did make another stop after a mile or so into the walk ─ I had a large denomination cheque to deposit constituting my younger brother's share of the annual property taxes, as well as some of the monthly expenses reconciliation that he normally makes ─ the cheque was just over $909.50.
I am generally somewhat uncomfortable using the ATM so late at night, but all was well.
I can recall nothing much else worth speaking about where the walk was concerned. The moon still looks mostly full.
I suppose that I was likely back to bed by maybe 5:30 a.m. However, my morning commenced considerably ahead of 8 a.m., and I was aware that even my brother was already up and watching T.V.
I did join him, but he never invited me to put our Android TV Box into action until 9 a.m.
I led us off with a 12-minute video uploaded to YouTube's Clyde Do Something channel two days ago: Woman files $10.5 Million Lawsuit Against Gov't & CBC for Misinformation & Negligence COVID Vaccines.
Carrie Sakamoto is suing several entities in the Canadian Government as well as the Canadian Broadcast Corporation (CBC) over Misinformation and Negligence. She and her legal representative Eva Chipiuk join me to discuss the case.
I sure hope the poor woman not only gets whatever satisfaction is possible, but I hope the entities she is suing are laid open to the world for their deceit.
I am not going to bother mentioning a second shorter video.
The third video well exceeded an hour (1:11:47), and had been livestreamed to Rumble's Russell Brand channel yesterday: [EXCLUSIVE] Russell, RFK & Cheryl Hines | Censorship & Power - #160 - Stay Free With Russell Brand.

That Russell Brand can sure be a zany kook! And it was my impression that it was he who challenged Bobby ─ not the reverse.
The final video found me fading, but I played it through even though my brother bowed out in favour of some bed rest with possibly nearly half of it to go.
Added to Rumble's Open Mike with Michael Thiessen channel July 1, the video just topped an hour (1:02:30): Understanding Bill C-18 ft. Lawyer Barry W. Bussey.
On this episode of Open Mike, Dr. Thiessen is joined by lawyer and writer Barry W. Bussey to digest the recently passed Bill C-18, its cousin Bill C-11 and future censorious plans by the Trudeau Regimes' and what they mean for Canada's freedoms.

I had my day's first meal after the video finished, and I was into bed in search of a needed nap when my brother emerged from his bedroom and left for the day to socialize.
Despite the sunny day, I almost chose not to sun. But around 3:15 p.m. I recognized the folly of not baking out there, and at 3:17 p.m. (I believe), I began just over 70 minutes in the backyard.
I wish that I could be rid of that damned pouch of flab that has developed over my lower belly. If it was only gone, I would dare some public sunning, and not be confined here at home to derive the benefit.
It is a curse.
I am unsure how I shall spend the evening, even though I am now early into it. It is possible that I may later get out for a five-mile walk, thereby removing the need for one in the wee a.m.
To ensure any chance of this venture that would see me purchasing a bottle of Scotch and a half dozen cans of cold brews at the halfway point to help make the return leg of the hike much more enjoyable, I am going to need a little further bed rest, methinks.
Tomorrow's post will tell the tale ... provided I do make one, of course.
