She said that he had been trying to work on his ham gear and has destroyed some of it by cutting wires and basically damage most of it beyond repair. She said he had fallen several times and was picking up trash from neighbors and carrying it into the house. He has also been wondering off and she is extremely worried. I told her if he comes to my house I will keep him here and call her so she will either come and get him or at least she will know where he is. Pedro was becoming a pest showing up very early in the morning but know I understand a little more of what is going on.

He made money one way or another because he made it through the year paying his rent and other expenses. I have told him to file and estimate his income but to make sure it is under $12,400 because that is the amount anyone that files as single has $12,400 deductible before paying taxes. He is afraid it is fraud. It is not fraud if you are not claiming to get money from the government.

1:00PM Got text from Tyler and I convinced him to file his income taxes.
2:00PM We made a FB video contact and I talked him through his tax form and he got his taxes filed. He did not file in 2018 so I figured he should file so he would be on record when and if they send stimulus checks out. I know he will not get much but maybe he will get something. He does have a direct deposit and Troy filed and he has a direct deposit so he should get a check and possibly Troy will get unemployment also.
5:00PM Eric called and said that he had mailed the N95 masks he bought for Barb and I. He sent me a picture via text of the mailing label and the package should be here by Saturday.
6:30PM Met G4FM Thursday night net. Had 12 check ins, looks like the net is picking up. I figure it will be this way while the virus restrictions are in effect. Most are going to climb the walls but ham radio will get it through it all.

11:00AM Wendy called, all she did was complain on how COVID19 is effecting her and restricting her. She keeps telling Barb what we should do. I believe that Barb and I will be able to take care of ourselves not have others tell us what to do. I told Eric to stay home and take care of his mother and Wendy should stay in Ft Meyers and take care of herself and not give unwanted advise. 6:00PM Fixed ham and dumplings for supper. 7:00PM Barb and I watching TV.

1:00AM Getting ready to go to bed.
7:50AM Alex text me. She had tried to contact Dana and of course being this early Dana did not answer. I text her back and asked to not contact us until after 10am and she said OK so I went back to bed.
10:00AM Up and about. Told Barb about Alex wanting to go to the farm and take pictures and check it out.
10:30AM Barb called Dana and told her to contact Alex and let her know where and when she could pick up the keys and remotes so she could get into the house.
11:00AM Talked to Alex and she said she had talked to Dana and she was going to leave the keys for her and where they would be.
11:30AM Barb called Dana and told her that she was to give Alex all the keys and the remotes. All Dana could do was complain about the virus. I wonder what her excuse has been for the last year of not cooperating with the Realtor. She and Dwayne think it is their right to live in that house on the farm for nothing for as long as they want. When Barb is gone, Dana will see how much sympathy Jeff or Wendy give her. The farm will never sell as long as she demands living in the house and not cooperating.
2:00PM Barb and I went to Walmart and picked up her prescriptions, over $250.00. It was very convenient, I would like to see them to continue this. I hate to stand and wait to check out at any store. When we were waiting we were watching the crowd. They must have been at least 50 people I could see walking around and the only ones that had masks on were older people. Younger and kids did not have masks. The girl that brought Barb's prescription out was not wearing a mask. She stood with in 2 feet of me to give me the package and to scan my credit card. I had my N95 mask on all the time. I don't wear a mask when I am in a closed car and when I check the mail. I make sure there is no one getting mail when I check mine, so I am alone at the mail boxes. I keep my mask with me at all times just in case I would have to roll down the window and talk to someone. I also keep cleaning material (spray) and paper towels to wipe down everything. The cleanest the inside of car has been in a long time.

Dana was suppose to have gone to the house and run the vacuum and paint the ceiling in the kitchen where there were water stains from a previous water leak. The roof has been replaced so the leak has been fixed. Dana will drag her feet and give the Realtor a rough time putting off the sale. She will sing a different song when she has to deal with Wendy

Note:
I know that what I say falls on deaf ears except by a very few. Just think, citizens over 65 years of age make up 14 percent of the US population but those over 65 dying of COVID19 make up 25 percent of those dying of COVID19. . I don't think the older citizens are going out and looking for the virus, it is the younger 86 percent carrying it to us. I went to a drive through to pick up prescriptions and I counted out of approximately 50 people just walking around there were only 5 with masks on. The young lady that brought me my prescriptions did not wearing a mask. I have my groceries delivered and 3 out of 4 of the individuals delivering my groceries were not wear masks. I have not contact with them, they just place groceries on a table outside and after they have left, i spend time disinfection each item before I take them inside my residents

12:00PM Can't get the TV in my room to log in with my Wifi. Can't figure what the trouble. It must be that my software in the TV has gone wrong in some way.

Note: Groceries for 2019 cost me approximately $100.00 per week. Groceries for 2020 have cost me approximately $140.00 per week. That is a 40% increase. This could be because I over order at times because I keep more frozen food and canned food due to at times I can not get some items due to shortages. I also have all my groceries delivered. I use Shipt and first shopped Publix for a couple weeks and then I compared prices with Winn Dixie/Harvey's and found Publix runs on the average of 5% higher on prices so I am now shopping Harvey's The service cost me $99.00 for a year of service and I must buy $35.00 or more to get free delivery. I am also expected to tip the driver and I pay approximately $10 tip on each delivery. 2019.....$100.00 X 52 = $5200.00 for groceries Projection for this year. 2020.....$140.00 X 52 = $7200.00 for groceries + $99.00 = $7299.00 + $520 tips = $7819.00

10:00PM Barb went to bed. Watching Laura on FOX.
11:00PM Watching FOX news. Things are getting worse and worse. It looks like the liberals are going to try to drag this virus out until November and blame Trump for it all. By that time everything will be so bad the voters will vote the Dems in and then the country will go down hill because the Dems will start putting heavy taxes on everything to pay the debt and put all kind of controls on the general public. I don't things will ever get better during my lifetime.

1:00PM Dana called and Barb and I talked to her and Dwayne for over an hour. It seems that the deputy sheriff is there. Dwayne had called the sheriff because Roger Amos had threatened him to have him arrested if he removed or cut off a lock that Amos had placed on the gate and had put up a sign up stating no trespassing. He is a compleat asshole and is as crazy as can be. I don't know what this asshole will do next. He claims a right a way through Barbs property. There is no record anywhere of a deed of a right a way.
3:00PM It took me an hour to get Barb settled down. 6:00PM Supper, fried cabbage and baked potato. It was really good.

April 29, 2020
1:00AM Getting ready to go to bed.
8:30AM Up and about, made a pot of coffee waiting for Barb to get up. The sun shinning through the window woke me early.
9:30AM Barb up and fixed her a cup of coffee and she had a breakfast fruit bar. She wasn't hungry.
10:30AM The shopper from Shipt text and said he was doing my shopping.
11:30AM My groceries were delivered by Glenn, my first male shopper. Got everything except some cleaning produces that were not available. Gave him a $10 tip in cash. I try to always give the shopper a cash tip so it does not go through the Shipt and a record is kept of it.
12:00PM Printed out the Sale contract (10 pages) for Barb and she initialed each page and signed the final sheet.
2:30PM Scanned the ten pages and email them to Alex. She text me and said she had gotten them and she may have another something for Barb to sign and would email it later.

11:00PM Watching TV

April 30, 2020
1:00AM Getting ready to go to bed.
11:00AM Up and about, Had a bagel w/cup of coffee.
1:00PM Barb is washing clothes.
3:30PM Barb finished with her washing/drying/folding and putting away her clothes.
6:00PM Had a pizza for supper.
6:30PM G4FM net with N4HES.
7:00PM Watching TV.
8:30PM Alex called and told Barb that Dana was not cooperating about moving out by June 29th which is the closing date.
9:00PM Barb called Dana and told her that she had to be out by the closing date, June 29th and Dana said she thought she had 60 days after the closing date. I explained that to Barb that it was 60 days after the contract was signed so they changed the closing from June 5th to the 29th, 60 days from the signing of the contract. I believe that if Dana had made an attempt to move earlier she could possibly talk to the new owner they may have been understand in the event of the virus, but Dwayne and Dana think the world owe them. Dana said on the phone. "I thought I was going to live here until you were gone." and that means to me she meant until Barb died.

I don't know what I would do if I would accidentally drive up on a protest crowd. I might just run over them if they screwed with me.

Note =======================
This story was on the internet. Have no idea if it was in the newspaper or by who it was written.
The Black Dilemma
"For almost 150 years the United States has been conducting an interesting experiment. The subjects of the experiment: black people and working-class whites.
The hypothesis to be tested: Can a people taken from the jungles of Africa and forced into slavery be fully integrated as citizens in a majority white population?
The whites were descendants of Europeans who had created a majestic civilization. The former slaves had been tribal peoples with no written language and virtually no intellectual achievements. Acting on a policy that was not fair to either group, the government released newly freed black people into a white society that saw them as inferiors. America has struggled with racial discord ever since.
Decade after decade the problems persisted but the experimenters never gave up. They insisted that if they could find the right formula the experiment would work, and concocted program after program to get the result they wanted. They created the Freedmans Bureau, passed civil rights laws, tried to build the Great Society, declared War on Poverty, ordered race preferences, built housing projects, and tried midnight basketball. Their new laws intruded into peoples lives in ways that would have been otherwise unthinkable.
They called in National Guard troops to enforce school integration. They outlawed freedom of association. Over the protests of parents, they put white children on buses and sent them to black schools and vice-versa. They tried with money, special programs, relaxed standards, and endless hand wringing to close the achievement gap. To keep white backlash in check they began punishing public and even private statements on race. They hung up Orwellian public banners that commanded whites to Celebrate Diversity! and Say No to Racism. Nothing was off limits if it might salvage the experiment.
Some thought that what W.E.B. DuBois called the Talented Tenth would lead the way for black people. A group of elite, educated blacks would knock down doors of opportunity and show the world what blacks were capable of.
There is a Talented Tenth. They are the black Americans who have become entrepreneurs, lawyers, doctors and scientists. But ten percent is not enough. For the experiment to work, the ten percent has to be followed by a critical mass of people who can hold middle-class jobs and promote social stability. That is what is missing.
Through the years, too many black people continue to show an inability to function and prosper in a culture unsuited to them. Detroit is bankrupt, the south side of Chicago is a war zone, and the vast majority of black cities all over America are beset by degeneracy and violence. And blacks never take responsibility for their failures. Instead, they lash out in anger and resentment.
Across the generations and across the country, as we have seen in Detroit, Watts, Newark, Los Angeles, Cincinnati, and Ferguson, rioting and looting are just one racial incident away. The white elite would tell us that this doesn't mean the experiment has failed. We just have to try harder. We need more money, more time, more understanding, more programs, and more opportunities.
But nothing changes no matter how much money is spent, no matter how many laws are passed, no matter how many black geniuses are portrayed on TV, and no matter who is president. Some argue its a problem of culture, as if culture creates peoples behavior instead of the other way around. Others blame white privilege.
But since 1965, when the elites opened Americas doors to the Third World, immigrants from Asia and India people who are not white, not rich, and not connected have quietly succeeded. While the children of these people are winning spelling bees and getting top scores on the SAT, black youths are committing half the country's violent crime, which includes viciously punching random white people on the street for the thrill of it that has nothing to do with poverty.
The experiment has failed. Not because of white culture, or white privilege, or white racism. The fundamental problem is that American black culture has evolved into an un-fixable and crime ridden mess. They do not want to change their culture or society, and expect others to tolerate their violence and amoral behavior. They have become socially incompatible with other races by their own design, not because of the racism of others - but by their own hatred of non-blacks.
Our leaders don't seem to understand just how tired their white subjects are with this experiment. They don't understand that white people aren't out to get black people; they are just exhausted with them. They are exhausted by the social pathologies, the violence, the endless complaints, and the blind racial solidarity, the bottomless pit of grievances, the excuses, and the reflexive animosity. The elites explain everything with racism, and refuse to believe that white frustration could soon reach the boiling point."

8:00PM Barb and I watching "Mountain Men" on History Channel.
10:00PM Barb went to bed. Received a text from Alex about whether Dana is in or out of the house. I told her that Dana had talked to Chris and said that he told her that there was no hurry because the closing isn't until July 24th. First we knew of the exact day when the sale will close. The closing was set for July 10th and the deeds are quit deeds and dated July 1st. As far as I am concerned when the lawyer signs for the package containing the two deeds, the POA and the fund transfer information the deal is made. Then they are obligated to send Barb her money. They say they will take the money for the Realtor, (6%), WV state taxes (2.5%) and they said something about stamps. I assume that has to do with something going to the county. Quit deeds do not have to be recorded in the court house to be legal or final so don't understand the stamps for Barb. Just checked and the package has been in Clarksburg since 1am this morning but as of now has not been delivered and says it will be delivered by 3pm Friday July 17th.

1:00PM Received an email from USPS that the overnight package had been delivered. Heard nothing from the lawyer but I said before the ball in their court now. Just wonder how soon they will close and send Barb her money. They have the quit deed so Dana is their problem now. When they accepted and signed for delivery of the deed it is theirs and since it is a quit deed they are responsible for anything that occurs from here on.
2:15PM Checked mail
3:00PM Pick Barb up from her hair appointment.
4:00PM Went out and swept the water out of the porch but still don't know where it is coming from. Drying it out and will watch when it rains again. The window was open above there the watch was located but I don't think it came in there since it was the very top window and I don't think it was blowing that hard, but will see. The old place where the water was coming in is dry so maybe I have that leak stopped.

1:00PM Tried to call the Meadowbrook office and the number is not a working number. I then called the new manager of the MHP, Lakeshore Management INC and waited 5 minutes until I got an agent and then I gave her my information and she had never heard of Meadowbrook in Lakeland and then put me on hold for another 5 minutes and then their answering service and she couldn't help but just leave a message for them to call me. I decided to send them email as follows:

Attn: Kevin Murray
Lakeland Regional Manager

My Information:

Meadowbrook MHP

Lakeland, FL 33815

I received a letter from your organization informing me that the Meadowbrook MHP would be under new management on July 29, 2020.
In the letter I was given the telephone number for the office of Meadowbook MHP of 863 688 3334 which I was informed was not a working number so I called your listed number of 904 257 4624 and was placed on hold for over 5 minutes before a representative came on the line and I gave her my information and was told that she had no information on the management of Meadowbrook in Lakeland FL in her records but would place me on hold and then get back to me. I again waited over 5 minutes and your answering service came on the line and all she said was she could do was give the same number I had called or take a message for LAKESHORE MANAGEMENT to call me.

At present I pay my rent via my bank by check mailed to the Meadowbrook office at 3801 New Tampa Hwy Lakeland, FL . The last check was postmarked July 21, 2020 and I will not change the arrangement until such time that you send me a copy of LAKESHORE MANAGEMENT, INC rules and regulations and the mailing address, name and account number for me to send you my monthly rent.

I will expect a prompt reply to my email as to actions that you are expecting to place in effect. I must know prior to August 1, 2020 to make arrangements of where to send rent with an account number.

Since the local Meadowbrook MHP office is closed due to COVID19 I will place the “Resident Information” in the mail/rent drop at the Rec Center.
Sincerely,
Richard R. Wilt

10:00PM Barb went to bed, watching Laura on FOX.
Note: Since I have been forced to stay at home or make as few contacts as possible outside of my home all I have is TV. I am just an old man that only at my age has words to express myself. All I hear and see on TV is there is going to be a race war. The only ones saying that this is a race war are the groups that believe race is to their advantage to insert Racism. What it really is conflict between the Majority and the Minority.

The minority say that the majority is always in control. That is the way it has been since the beginning of time and will continue until the end. It may not be fair but that is the way it is. The only way this can be stopped or made better is to give the minority what they want or the minority grows and then become the majority and then we have the same problem except it has just reversed and then it starts over again.

If this continues as Black vs White nothing will improve. Stop the Black vs White and rearrange the conflict as Minority vs Majority and the minority should work to get as many majority to join them and change the balance thus eliminating the differences between the two sides. This can be done by negotiation and understanding on both sides.

3:00PM Wendy really got very upset and really wanted to argue about Trump. She said she hated Trump, wished something would happen to her. If there are many out there like her I can understand how all of these riots are happening. She and all the others that hate Trump just let their hatred take over civility of any kind. I tried to quite things down but every time a Trump commercial came on TV it would set her off into a tirade. It got so bad Barb had to tell her to shut up.

11:00AM Up and about, Took a shower to get ready to go to Tampa for my eye appointment.
2:00PM Left for my eye appointment in Tampa.
2:50PM Checked in at the clinic and called Barb to let her know I was at the clinic. I had checked in at the door and was told to stay in my car until I was called. The man checking me in told me I could not enter the clinic with my N95 mask on because it was one with a breathing valve. I told him I had a 1.5 microns filter in it but made no difference. I put on a one time disposal mask and he said to make sure that the blue side was out. Didn't know it made a difference.
5:06PM Finally was called into the clinic for my appointment. The doctor was a little Chinese and young. Came to Florida from Long Island, NY. After she finished she called in another male doctor who was from Vietnam. Both were very nice. Didn't need new glasses but I do have early cataracts but the doctor said it would be a couple years before I should worry bot cataracts. He did tell me something about my eyes having little spots that are usually found in people that live on a farm around chickens. The same thing can be caused if you have had your eyes struck by a laser He said no problem just a note. They have been seen before and were in my records but no one had ever said anything about them before.

1:00AM Getting ready to go to bed.
11:00AM Up and about. Raining.
12:00PM Barb and I watching TV as usual. Another boring day.
2:30PM Place an order with Shipt from Target should be here between 4 and 5.

Everyone knows you can never inject yourself into others argument and try to make it a debate. Will continue watching.
11:00PM The debate is over, I don't think it accomplished much. I will watch the next one.

I know she isn't sleeping very well at night. All of this political BS on TV is getting to her. I will just have to try not to bring up anything political at all. I know I say things that upset her because I just can't tolerate the things that are being done by Biden and his followers. Everyone thinks it will be over on November 3rd but is is just going to start. If Trump wins by a small amount the liberals will start all over again like they did before. It just wears me out checking what the liberals are saying.
10:00PM Watching Laura on FOX.

1:00PM Took Bella outside and started getting ready to go to my doctor's appointment at Watson Clinic in Plant City.
2:10PM Arrived at the clinic and it was raining and there was a lady coming across the parking lot so I waited to let her go into the clinic ahead of me. I walked up to the door which is a sliding automatic door and the door open when I was approximately 2 feet from the door and the lady was standing in the reception where the lady checks your temperature and asked the usual question about how you feel and do you have any COVID symptoms and checked the lady's temperature and asked the lady the questions and she said he had a cough and ached all over. The receptionist asked her if she had called before coming and the lady said, yes and the receptionist asked if she had told her doctor about her symptoms the lady said yes. The receptionist went into panic mood and called for the doctor. I just continued standing outside the open door and the receptionist asked the lady to have a seat and went for her doctor. The receptionist then checked me and asked me the same questions and of course I had no symptoms so she asked me to check in so I did but then went to the opposite side of the reception room and sat down. I was more than 14 to 20 feet from the previous lady that came in. Her doctor then came into the reception room and took the women by the arm and lead her out the door as she was telling her that she only told the doctor that she had an upset stomach and had not mentioned any of the COVID symptoms. She instructed her to leave and go to Urgent Care center where she would be checked for COVID. I got the feeling that the lady was treated like she was a leper but there was panic in getting the lady out of the reception waiting room. The doctor came out again and asked which chair the lady was sitting in and the receptionist said she didn't notice so I pointed out exactly which chair she had been seated in across the room from me.
2:20PM Was called into the doctor's examining room and the nurse took my vitals and my blood pressure was 180/79 and the nurse made the remark that my blood pressure was a little high. Waited for the Nurse Practitioner and Lindsey came in and the examination went well. Lindsey waited a while and said she wanted me to relax and so she could retake my blood pressure and it was then 137/79. It appears that I was not aware that the thing with the lady had upset me and I was unaware of it. Lindsey gave me a clean bill of health and then called in the nurse gave me my flu shot. Have another appointment with the lab to have blood test to check my thyroid because it is a little low. My next doctor appointment is on February 15th for labs and February 22nd for doctor appointment.

I am making this post so it will show back up as a future memory on my timeline: Today is three days after the 2020 undecided election. Gasoline is currently $1.80-2.10 per gallon. Interest rates are 2.65% for a 30 year mortgage. The stock market closed at 27,848, even though we have been fighting COVID for 9 months. Our GDP growth for the 3rd Qtr was 33%. We had the best economy ever until COVID and it is recovering well. We have not had any new wars or conflicts in the last 4 years. North Korea has been under control and has not been testing any missiles. Isis has not been heard from for over 3 years. The housing market is the strongest in over 20 years. Homes have appreciated at an unbelievable rate and sell within hours of going on the market, with multiple offers. Churches having come under persecution in blue states but as Christians we were all thankful that Christians were being defended by this administration, In case our President actually loses this election then I can remind everyone of how great things were at one point in our history.
Keep a copy to compare later. 11-6-2020

It was only 1200 bps but was reliable and a lot of fun. It took 50 hrs at that time to send and receive an answer so you made you messages short and precise. I was really happy to here from him since he lives in Southern England and I was worried since the COVID news from there seems bleak. Will have to get back to him and let him know how we are getting along even though he probably knows a lot about me since he reads my blog, so HI Ted will get back in the next couple days. Stay safe.
