The House Impeachment of President Trump

I have listen to some of the three days, the House Managers have argued in the Senate for the impeachment of the President. Its mostly what they have said before but taking three days to say it over and over again. It seems like they feel they have the authority to tell the Senate that they need to finish doing their job for them. As in collecting information to use against the President. It also seems that the House Managers also want the senate to vote on what they deem necessary for their needs and what they believe to be true.

So far there have been ten amendments to the senate rules and all were tabled along party line votes. The amendments were to bring people and documents to the hearing to present evidence. This was suppose to be done in the House! But they rush to articles through and passed them also along party line votes to impeach. To do this without gathering the required evidence seems a bit short sighted and inept. And to do this while trying to impeach the President of the United States seems doomed to failure. But they pushed it through and passed it. Now they want the Senate to do their job for them. To what end? They know there is no proof for the generic terms of impeachment they passed. So maybe they are thinking that something may turn up in the new inquiry. Maybe they are just trying to tie up the President to keep him from doing anything else to make them look bad. To be honest who knows what they are thinking. I have heard rumors that they want to make the Republicans look bad to take more seats in the Senate. From where I sit, it may end up making the Democrats loose seats in the House. You can’t look this stupid and expect no one to notice.

62 And Still Working

I was going to retire at 62 but then things changed. In November the owners of the company asked me to step into their office. They asked me to stay on as the IT Manager. I told them I would be willing to do that but I was tired of coming in every day and I would only be interested in continuing if I could work from home for the most part. I would come in only when needed or called on. So far I have had to go in most days with only a few days that I have been able to work from home. But I feel that will transition to more days at home as things settle down.

The Wall

Three people were stuck on top of the new border wall around midnight on Sunday in San Diego.

Paragraph

A 36 year old male and two females 20 and 18 got cought. My first thought was human smuggling. You can tell how tall the wall is and they had to rescue these three people from the top. People here in the US that say walls don’t work, I would say you don’t know what your talking about.

Change of Plans

Well retirement will be put on hold for a while. The company has asked me to stay on. I told them I would be interested but I didn’t want to come in to work everyday. I asked if I could work from home and only come in as needed. To my surprise they agreed and said we could try it out.

So my first day of retirement looks like it will be going into work. We have a problem with some software updates that were installed a couple of weeks ago. It shouldn’t take long and I may be able to get out of there in a few hours or so.

To be honest it feels good to know I will still be able to contribute and have a bit to do during the day. I have a remodel job at the house well actually several that will take a few months to do. The biggest of which is getting my wife to pick out some flooring. I also have a few sheet rock jobs to do around the house. I may post some pictures of the jobs and a run down of the work in progress.
