what y’all mad about today?

May 29, 2026

So much noise circulating about government fraud; an Iranian trained terrorist that plotted to assassinate Trump’s daughter, Ivanka; the back and forth with Iran and trying to strike a deal; E. Jean Carroll potentially lying under oath during her deposition regarding Trump; the declassification of RussiaGate files and subsequent document dump … I could go on an on.

But what I’m mad about is having to boil water!

After our recent ALL DAY NO WATER day, we now have to boil our water (rolling boil for 3 minutes) before consumption. Imagine, if you will, how much water 3 large dogs consume in a day’s time. Next, compare that to how long it takes a gallon of water to cool off.

It’s not like it would be healthy for the dogs to drink from our biggest water supply…

clean pool but not for drinking

In reality, I’m not mad about one single thing today. 🩷

Funny, the day we had no water was the exact day my water bill payment came out of my bank account — and that didn’t even make me mad.

“For every minute you remain angry, you give up sixty seconds of peace of mind.”

Ralph Waldo Emerson

So there you have it. I’m not really even mad about boiling water. It’s a pain in the ass for sure, but it isn’t really that big a deal. Especially when there’s so much other stuff in the world to capture attention that we can fret about. 😉

And even better? We just got the message that we no longer have to boil water. Yippee!!


Now you know: When the Blues Brothers was released in 1980, execs who controlled over half the theaters in the country refused to book the film, citing the number of black actors. The film still became the 10th highest-grossing domestic film of 1980.
