This thing attacked me this week at the cabin.

That other one was a Klingon, what is this one?

I am really not happy about these weird bugs that keep attacking me.

Why are these 2 dogs so scared?

Wouldn’t you be if this was your driver?

All Aboard!

I am headed back up to da cabin after a day of running around getting stuff. the good news is, I have the boat in tow. The shop did great and timely work, so i will get to do some cruising on this vacation. I had a bad gasket which was causing the leak, and blew a trim hose. All better now.

If you are in town, make sure to swing by the Capital, tomorrow (Saturday) for the Immigration/Flag Day (?) rally which I believe starts at noon. (sorry, didn’t have time to lock down the details. If anyone has them, please leave them in the comments. )

Have a good weekend folks.

I’m home from my vacation for a day to grab more supplies for the cabin renovation and attend keegan’s tonight. They are giving away the trip to Boston, and i happen to be in the running.

It has been hot as heck at the cabin, but I have gotten a ton of stuff done. For those that don’t know, I am rebuilding or renovating my family’s cabin in Wisconsin. I got the rest of the windows in the porch and sided it.

It has been kinda different up there as my boat is in the shop. I had some trim problems and water leaks. Since I have been so swamped with work and other stuff, I took it into the shop rather than do it myself. So it hasn’t been at the cabin to enjoy, and I have had to resort to the pontoon.

I’ll be heading back up to the cabin in the morning to do some more work over the weekend.

As for my future, I have not really made any decisions yet. Since there are still people impersonating me on rival blogs and trying to ruin my remaining reputation, I am really leaning towards taking a leave from party politics.

I just don’t think I can give my BPOU or the Anoka County GOP the attention they deserve. I’ve killed myself the last few years to try to give every aspect of my life the effort needed, but I am coming to the realization that I can’t do everything I or others want me to, live a healthy happy life, and earn a living. I need to find balance, and well, I can’t quit my life, or job, so, well, it may have to be the volunteer stuff.

There have been lots of people who have sent messages to keep the faith because to quit would give my opponents a win, or statements of how much the party needs people like me who will speak their mind, not the toe the status quo line, now more than ever.

Well, the way I and others were treated by party insiders and leaders was shameful and has killed my passion right now. Will it come back? I am sure, but I feel I would be standing in the way of progress while I try to find the time to do the needed things.

I plan to discuss things with these groups next week, and will make my decision based on their input, not that of cowards who won’t put their name to their words. You do not have to worry about asshats running my life. I am not that weak of an individual. But I refuse to have to fight for the right to simply be heard. If people won’t listen, why waste my time?

Oh and for those that didn’t get it, I did pull my blog down so I didn’t have to worry about asshat commenters gloating and further insulting me and my friends. I think that it is a sad statement of the people I share a party with that this is how they behave. I also think it is disgusting how some people feel they have the right to decide who does and does not make it to the big dance in the political world.

I received an email earlier this week that someone was once again posting under my name on another blog saying very disturbing things. It was not me. Once again, there are cowards in the lurk who feel that I am still someone who needs to be dealt with. I guess it is an honor to have people (in high places?) who feel that I am worthy of their attention.

Have a good weekend. And don’t forget, I’m watching you focker!

I am off to the cabin. I am seeking some time away before the big week. (MNGOP election is next Sat.) And work is, well, just insane. So I am getting away for the weekend.

For those that care, my grandma is doing well. I saw her today, and her spirits are up, and she is getting feisty again. She should be going back to her home tomorrow.

I’ll be back Sunday, so y’all be good til then.

(Remember I did have to work last weekend, so this is my brief Memorial break.

Oh, and I am bringing up my boat. I didn’t have time to test run her before I left, so let’s hope all is well. I did fill the block with RV anti-freeze this year. No more cracked blocks or no engines please.)

Bye. (oh and don’t any trolls go and try anything funny. I know you all may be quite upset this weekend, but it wasn’t me. I mean that. )

Oh, and sorry to Kev and tracy. I can’t make the Blog wars or Anti-Strib/MOB gathering.

Maybe I[ll have y’all up to my cabin this Summer. ……. Maybe.

It was just a bit windy at the cabin.

Thank good ness it missed my boat house.

What is it about the weekends that get me sick? Last Sunday I had a fever induced coma, and now this weekend I have a headcold. I guess burning the candle at both ends all week to get work, blogging, and fun in catches up with you eventually.

So anyways, if you couldn’t tell my blogging was a bit ‘off’ yesterday. My head felt like it weighed about as much as Rosie O’Donnel’s left butt check. (yeeesshhhh!)

I had originally planned to head up to the cabin to bust ass one more weekend and try to finish siding the porch at the cabin. Well thanks to the cold, and the MNGOP State Central Meeting today, my plans were foiled. Even before the cold, I had scrapped plans for the Friday departure to the cabin, since this meeting is in my District. I figured I’d better at least show my face.

So anyways, why do you care? Good question. But if you are still reading this, I’ll let you know my ‘little’ plans for the weekend.

I am going to be loading up for the cabin this morning. I have to make a stop at Menards for some J-trim. I’ll hit the grocery store. To the meeting. If anything interesting happens, I’ll post on it. And then I’m taillights baby. (That means you’ll only see my taillights as I will be heading out of town.)

The cabin plans are to get some siding done. I’d love to finish it up, but I don’t think a day will be enough time. I’d also like to get the boat out of the water. That way I can pull the boat lift into the shallow water before it gets too cold. You have to get into the water and often under it in order to get it off the legs and onto the wheels.

So that is the plan. It’ll be tough because I’ll be up there alone.

Have a good weekend.

I’m off for another lonely, but busy weekend at the cabin. I have a bit more soffit and fascia to do. And I also want to get 2 sides of the porch sided. Oh, and I hope to get some more of this too.

See ya here, Sunday.

From what I have been told through emails, the weather sucks back home.

Ha!!!!!!!!!

It has been beautiful up here in cabin land. I got lots of work and relaxation done.

I am out floating in da boat right now, catching some final ‘rays’ for the day. well too bad for all y’all who are wishin’ ya had webbed feet back in the Twin Cities.

Don’t say I never offered to have you join me. in fact over the years of having this place i’ve been more thab forth coming on invites. I stoppwd asking people, because they always turned them down.

So screw alls y’all. i’m having a blast.

Ha!!!!!!!

Gotta go cabin, now. Rufus is eager to get boating.

Happy Labor Day from RF.
