EarthDay2021

from

SituationalAssessmentTemplate2017

 


 

Introduction/Definition/etc

 

So a busy day

(link not created yet for

Vaccinated2021

or similar)

off of AprilFoolsDay2021

Stim3Gone2021

and likely others...

 

 

Body

 

Original Text

 

Walked along the 4 Mile Run,

starting around where the safe and

grocery cart (Home something instead)

has been for a month or so now,

Trolls2015 bridge at Columbia

Pike now working on the bridge

near Arlington Mill Community Center,

it will be wider, on that side,

and cars somehow narrower

a dangerous high step off,

and passing by with 6' distancing

impossible, while working on

upgrades along Columbia Pike

and put a wider sidewalk,

a mess, like MixingBowl

East in the South where i

used to live, below in Mount Vernon,

(called Alexandria, but in FairFax County)

along Route 1

(not the nice by the River, that was

WhereThePaveMentEndsWorldChannelOrg2021

)

goes through road, bridge/ etc construction hell

and then told to move

(decade + wait for Section 8/

later called Housing Choice Voucher

only to be stolen by

AttemptedMurderByInspections2019 ),

i guess the poor just are around

for others convenience,

or something...

 

So along the stream, early am,

not very early, as was up doing

laundry, you see someone was sick

near me, and i had some

new Stim3Gone2021

clothes on, and that won't do,

perhaps looking a little white

man on safari or something

new thick warm tan vest,

grey sweats,

but the woman ahead o fme

in line, they were early

went light headed?

or something, she's sick,

people rush to her,

have a seat,

she gets passed,

no where to go really,

and pulls in behind me,

i leave some food for the people

behind me, she gets it, i guess,

and waits to talk to me

behind me, not knowing

until later then seems to follow

me, she is called off elsewhere

someone says her mom is sick,

unspecified, i guess, mental issues

it seems, and that from someone who

is known to have them (me)

confusion, something idk,

later guess Ramadan (Fasting)

and light headed getting up,

but all sorts of Panic and other things,

everything is PanDemic,

so they guess that,

i guess otherwise,

overweight, bad food for decades/

likely a lifetime, and whatever

other issues, not really my place

to say, just as it affects me,

nearby, i take off things,

shower, change my bedding

(about time anyways)

let sit (virus dies in 4 days?),

later wash everything

early am, Earth Day,

Vaccine 2 show, first day

eligible, got a quick early

afternoon appointment,

(never separated out Vaccine

from AprilFoolsDay2021

it's in there, like the old food ad...)

 

Everything is green now,

was brown the last trip

down/over, along the trail,

takes a long time, to walk

the 5,6-10k or whatever

by the time i go back,

explore, do errands along

the way, etc...

Had stopped by Wifi at the

Community Center took a long

time in the cold, it was 35-53F

day temp range day,

and i'm wearing shorts,

but the big fluffy new vest

washed, and tired from

stress of wondering if it's

going to be another

PotomacHeritageTrail2021

you see i'm waiting on parts

again, too... the day has

turned into a double, now

triple header/ 3 event/s things

to do in a day, where just one

(laundry, Vaccine, parts)

would wipe me out,

and since i have book due

soon, take that to the Shirlington

Library, now an express location

and drop off there, saves a trip

as likely down after with all

the activity stress, shot, etc...

 

See a few greening trees,

urban area cars, buses, roads,

stuff, get to the bridge,

take of water, stream,

the pretend nature in the

urban environment

where the criminals hide

to pounce on unsuspecting

likely white women,

while they are not dumb,

they know the dangers,

and liked having others around,

i'd scared off some,

other times the women protected

me, later underpass,

joggers talking to someone on the

other end of the phone and

comments about what they

see/ hear/ is happening around

them, talking to others/ likely

girlfriends, etc...

Chatting away, those walks

likely keep people alive,

cooling off so they don't kill

their husbands, kids, neighbors,

etc... I heard it on YouTube

or something, it must be true,

walking groups save lives...

 

Further DownStream,

do i bother

documenting

where its so narrow that

only one person can pass,

and had problems in snow

going to food,

PandemicWareHouse2020

pulling

AldiGardenLineGardenUtilityCart2019

through freezing snow, wheel

not turning, worried about rust,

but did it anyways...

 

So see some ducks/ geese?

and take a few photos,

My EarthDay is complete,

keep on going,

Grocery store stop,

new one to me, known

it was there but on planning

knowing where bathrooms

are along a long stretch

bail out points,

i'm early

ive been past where the dog

attack was, another/same?

woman, different dog

no vest, they are on the other

side, not the dog towards me,

but worried a bout fall into the

stream, but dog has nature

to sniff and pee / poop in,

and a well worn path there too,

i guess since the Animal Shelter

is nearby, they maybe are out for

their fostering/ visiting time,

nice to get out of puppy/ pet/stray

jail, might get clemency/ sprung,

freed from a life/death sentence

this one a fluffy

 

Ive since bought a FRK9

supported a Fire/Rescue/

First Responder

K9 aka Canine

memorializing

someone i've never heard of,

but it's a golden, named after

a guy i find difficult tolearn about,

but he died, and was Fire and Rescue

so the dog Jim? Kovacs?

is named after him,

and the picture, looks Golden,

i had two growing up,

first was wide, female light

stocky,turned out hip displaysia (sp?)

grows to fast, misalighed/ problems,

a genetic defect, Goldens are/were

so popular they tried breeding

those things out, but not all worked,

don't know for a while, (and likely

genetic engineering options now)

we moved to the city, for my parents

job they summarily put her to a farm,

we went to visit, literally a farm,

not to pasture/ (read dead)

but later likely lost her

(dog years and time goes on)...

the second, a replacement

more Irish setter dark, from the

Mid West,  pet quality a breeder

had a big litter flown in to airport

first thing i saw was big paws,

little puppy likely scared,

cold, or knowing Goldens

puppies/ spoiled rotten along the way,

but mine, finally got a dog again,

and barricading in the kitchen,

usually failed, things to clean up,

crating seemed mean,

some control in an uncontrollable

situation, big city, no friends to speak

of, locked in as a latch key kid,

but out to find / get the dog,

usually ran away, i would have

had i thought of it, known how,

but the dog had sense to,

i didn't...

 

Fast forward through college,

dog stayed with dad,

he had girlfriend/ fiance,

married while i moved to school,

civil ceremony, not invited,

just them, StepMonster,

etc, lost her first husband,

and fears, later, etc..

But she had cookies, snacks,

something different,

and kept him off my back,

literally picking on me,

that i guess is a family trait

for all his clinical like personality

CourtShip of Eddie's Father

(black and white?

TV show of the time)

single father, raising kid,

it was a trend,

anyways, lonely boring,

yelled at, and other problems,

most wouldn't know came home

and drank, much less than a lot,

i guess, but just me and him,

by t he time i got the nerve to ask

for something (like need money

for school, had allowance,

other life demands)

it was late,

and got yelled at, he had

been drinking for a while by then,

and the bones in fish,

there are no bones in the fish,

then find a bone,

like Pink Floyd Video eat it,

i didn't eat it, but critical,

he tried his best, but certain

fish have bones and some eat

around i don't like food biting me back,

salmon abou the only one

that doesn't / big enough to find easily,

so lox, he's likely got developing heart

problems, and needs to do low fat,

non red meat, we had been switched

to Low Fat/ Non Fat milk,

other stuff tasted like cream,

after a while, etc...

 

I'd wandered all over the woods

looking for the dog, never really

new how he got out, nor how

found, and angry at having to look,

and the cycle continues,

but it was out, and about

not stuck in/ now called

lock down...

 

So been in nature,

did part of a grade for self

defined project, do number of

projects for grade level,

so made one on  spring of cleaning

in the park, she/ they upped it to

a bag per grade, so 3 bags?

trash bags collecting trash

in the park, took a while,

i was driving dad's / the family

car and Audi, nice but the kids

thought i was mine, instead,

a nice car for a kid, but it was the

family and only car, a BMW

on the other side, mom had,

old model 2002, never did 

get to d rive that, she sold it

for my sibling to go to school/

college... learned on a Ford

Fiesta on a sandy driveway,

how to shift gears, down to the

water front / dock, mom stayed

house sat, were we sailed

had boats with a club,

i think sibling had left already

for college, so my junior/

senior year, turns out there

was a guy charged with

child molestation/ abuse,

liked boys or something,

but never bothered me,

there was a room never to go

in, and be careful of him,

etc... Munster family or somesuch,

not talked about but i guess

why we were there,

some deal to have others around,

not left along, and monitored or

something... idk too young

to know and now not anyone

alive to tell me... been decades

(3-5x+ now)... Sibling a little

older may know...

Adult stuff, anyways, nature,

sailing and out looking for the dog,

who got a way a lot, i could/

probably should have run/

biked with him, but got off

and left him at home,

walking and cleaning up,

flea bath, feeding, brush,

trim nails, etc...

our first was field trained,

i was a kid and some TV show

with kids and dog(s) and

was on it, but didn't like it,

privacy was a problem even

back the, bright red hair,

dog matches my hair,

same weight , height,

hair color, we were a pair,

and when lost, nuclear,

no friends, etc,

likely signs of autism/

dyslexia / dysgraphia,

symptoms of the family

disease of alcholism,

looking Irish (assume whiskey

rural moonshine),

but not, neighboring Welsh,

Appalachia, roots, Country

boy, hick,

CharlieDanielsPassed2020

 

So rural beginnings,

more visiting my grand parents

both of which were what i'd learned

later to call townies,

HippieClownCamp2011

AVeteransSonLaughsAndSpitsAtMe2011

was rural, this was in town,

suburbs of (now very small) town,

so civilized and thought better,

not farming but not big city/ towns

Adventures visiting, were

hit a deer along a deserted stretch,

going up river to grand parents,

usually bored, tried sleeping,

deer incident hit, while i was down,

worried, you try to find the deer

if hit by a car, in a section where

deer out number people,

and late/ odd traveling,

grand parent(s) were Volunteer Fire

and Rescue (includes ambulance)

that was where the pig/ roast

cookout big event was,

and they played with bonfires,

and had lots/ good food,

not that grandma's wasn't

just eating out while rural,

grandma's pies,

blueberry in particular,

my fav, rhubarb, stringie stuff,

but sweet and different,

we had with a sharp new york

cheddar, i'd eat and sleep,

and basically be spoiled rotten,

she doted on us, and we

cared, but i had an objective

teen age distance, she complained

getting hit with the dogs tail

was like a rope, excited dog,

brought where ever we went,

no sitters for us,

and farm dogs were out in the shed,

hunting, and slept out,

Springer/Britney? Spaniels,

bigger, and probably wondered why

the Golden got inside,

no Fair, etc...

My aunts dog, don't remember what

now, sibling might, find old photos,

were were dog people, while

we probably had a cat,

died before we moved,

along the time we had

a foster? i don't remember

much of that time, too young,

couldn't see, hadn't gotten

glasses yet, imagine not being

able to see, and they wonder

why you can't don't read...

Much less what are those

wires between the poles with

no branches/ leaves...

 

An odd world without some

complete info, for some...

 

Anyways, Grocery store,

bathroom, plan b, alternative,

early, but was longer at

the end then i remember

last time, time slips away,

tour Harris Teeter, not this time

but Lidl2021

post

MoreOrLessLidl2021

LidlSilverCrestBreadMachine2021

got a lot at Giant,

broken top PeaNut Butter,

Cereal, had milk us up with that

(start ToDay)

jam top popped, reviewed on

gMaps2019

two pies half PumpKin

whole BlueBerry no Sugar added

(rather sweet to start

balancing fruit tartness?)

scale small, use weight from packaging,

plans for pizza, slice likely

and buy from the bike tool/supplies

vending machine

so a lot to do,

all in one day,

turns out EarthDay...

 

HomeLess guy there ignored

drunk smoking, baggy,

he has to step up his game,

if not getting anything from a bunny...

Not drink and smoke would be a start...

 

Lidl store woman mopping up

gets in my self service register

hitting buttons i'm figuring out

UPC code on bag $0.10

but how to scan, where,

on label, or type in,

can't see a damn thing

fogged up with mask

and glasses,

she reaches in at the end,

and totals,

sign says no Cash nor EBT,

and think i need to get a photo of that

i know about the Cash part,

learned that efore,

but not EBT is a problem for poor

and other, not me, don't have

Electronic Benefits Transfer

or whatever Food Stamps are

now electronically,

had it originally but wit h disability

too much for that, just a little over...

subtract out the medical, say

dental i need but didn't get,

filling/ replacing the

MindingAndMiningYourTeeth2012

FreeDentalDays2017

 

and missing

ValentinesDayWeekend2011

recently missed

HeartScreeningMinuteClinicsVoucher2019

for this year, did it happen

or i just miss it?

LDLs HDLs etc?

 

So buy some cheese,

this time Swiss not getting

gimmicky Monterey Jack

as not couponed remotely

needed liquid, cheap LemonAde,

and skipped donuts/ pastry

as got pies, and breakfast bar,

cereal, etc last stop at Giant,

so get going,

think Grace? said hi,

or something im busy

she's rushing?

I got a $10 eCoupon for the

Trekking Poles

and some feedback

how was your call with Grace?

when i'm not a call , it was email,

and never got what i wanted

but they were nice enough

after asking for the code/ product

IAN number, and never got the

missing parts, what i really wanted,

quick release like lever

nut & odd bolt or vice versa

wide nut long bolt

to use the second

and the plastic fold over frubber

tip for the second pole,

i had dropped sugar fell

and nasty (obese black)

cashier that time

so maybe she took it off,

or got knocked carrying around?

but sabotage not excluded

from possiblity, imnsho...

the hatred oozing out of some people

towards me,

Grace may be nice, corporate

is up there up stairs, i'm theremaybe

late arrival, they tun to meetings

or late coming in,

i'm busy she probably recognizes

me i've never seen here,

but have the backpacks,

not shown in MoreOrLessLidl2021

Lidl2021

LidlSilverCrestBreadMachine2021

series, really

Stim3Gone2021

bought a lot of camping gear,

a $40 hikers backpack each trip,

two the first time,

one each next trip(s)

and a second self inflating sleep mat,

think ThermaRest but not name brand,

similar functions, not tried,

nasty (Large LatinX)

cashier says ought to have

popped/ punctured it, etc...

 

and these are the types of things

i go to nature to get away from,

crowds is obvious even before

PandemicWareHouse2020

ConVid19ContinuesIn2020

AbusesInTheNameOfViralEmergency2020

etc...

 

A shopping cart is in the water/

stream down by the water treatment

and power transformers

(plant by water)

+ some artsy thing(s)

 

get a photo or two

of that,

(lunch vaccinate, add links

after created?)

 

and back to city life,

bail on the

way back

I've failed to live up to

walking it all,

and short at that

nothing on parts,

slow and late...

and not even including

the third wheel,

not the warehouses/ sites

bought from surprise,

no fun for me...
