How the Heck are We All Gonna Get Along? With Clay, Naturally!


Recommended Posts

Posted this on FB this morning:

My favorite things from yesterday:

1) Eugene Goodman escorting VP Kamala Harris yesterday. (If you don't know, he's the Capitol Police officer who helped draw a mob away from lawmakers at the Capitol riot 2 weeks ago.)

2) Amanda Gorman. Enough said.

3) The New Radicals reuniting after 22 years to perform their only hit, "You Get What You Give," at the virtual parade yesterday afternoon. This was one of Beau Biden's favorite songs.

4) Lin-Manuel Miranda reciting Seamus Heaney's "The Cure at Troy" (with the addition of President Biden reciting the same words at the end of the poem) during the televised Inaugural Ball.

5) Jill Biden's wrist corsage.

6) The unknown gentleman who spent the entirety of President Biden's inaugural address at Beau Biden's grave -- and the reporter who discovered this, and left him alone.

7) The Bernie Sanders memes. All of them.

😎 Hope.

My fave #4

Didn't know #6 ❤️ Beautiful 

That’s what I love and missed, all the little traditions and deep meaningful  stories.. doesn’t it just make you feel hopeful? And then you read some of the comments under the picture Clay put up yesterday and 😳 ....

Fear- Those vaccines should make it to us eventually but my daughter and son who live near us both have gotten theirs (nurse and teacher) The older generation,  hubby and I, sitting here without!

I read the comments under Clay's FB post yesterday....I was smacking my head almost the entire time.  

I have a feeling many of these people probably lost track of him after Idol, so they have no clue how liberal he is.  (For all we know, these people may not know he's gay either.)

Right?! I was waiting for them to ask how the wife and kids were 🙄

there was even a guy who said he wouldn’t give to Clay’s charity anymore- As if.

You know I’m already tired of the double standard. Democrats must now be so gracious but we all had to look the other way the last 4 yrs during all the horrible divisiveness. Even Joy and Meghan got into this morning on the View. Sometimes I think Clay loves her because she is so fun to piss off 😝

The spots filled up in 10 minutes!  If my daughter hadn’t received an alert I would have been too late.  Houston has an alert line that you can sign up for and they let you know when vaccines become available.

😉 Ok I’ll go..

The only thing I found interesting about the podcast this week was during the commercial for ‘magic spoon’. Clay states that he started doing Keto a few wks ago, for the new year!  My son #2 did this diet, it’s hard to lose weight on this unless u go full on.. it takes a couple weeks until you go into  ketosis and then watch out!  He lost 37 lbs in 9 weeks, the weight just fell off- crazy! He had to stop b/c he started looking too thin😮. It’s been about 2 yrs now and he’s gained about 1/2 of it back 

Just sayin, we may see Clay looking a little skeletal, if he keeps it up 💀

I may look into the keto diet. Lately I hate the thought of any kind of meat. But I'd be happy to lose a few pounds.

Good news for those getting their first vaccine. Next week I'll be getting my second shot. But I have been in a covid study answering questions everyday since April or so last year. They recently sent me six antibody tests which I'll have to do once a month for six months. I completed the first one yesterday and the results came back today. I already have antibodies to protect me from the virus, lgG. They did a study with monkeys and even a small amount of these antibodies protected the monkeys from getting covid.  

Hope you all get your vaccine soon.

Fear.. that is so interesting! The only way u have antibodies is if u were exposed. Did u know that u had it? That btw is an excellent idea to take antibody tests every month.  We have none of that here.. but I will be writing my governor!

I think the Keto diet sound HORRIBLE, but that's just me.  I did Weight Watchers several years ago, and that plan (at the time) worked well for me.  But unfortunately, I put most of the weight back on, save for about 10 lbs.  I need to get back to something, but unfortunately, I like food way too much!  The pandemic isn't helping either.

Fear, I'm glad you've got the antibodies working already.  Someday I'll get the shot -- hoping it's before summer!

Last week's podcast was good, but not stellar.  Hoping for some good guests coming up soon.  Also, it's been almost a year of podcasts, which is EXCELLENT.  It's nice to be able to hear Clay's voice on a weekly basis.

Whoa boy!

I see both sides of this issue. My hubby manages to teach PE online, no easy task! Yes, it’s not perfect but he gives pts toward their grade for checking in and 1 more if they do the tasks and stay online.  I KNOW there is a lot more to it than just pushing a button!   My SIL teaches kindergarten in-school in the Twin Cities and I see how they are putting her at risk every single day.

 Meghan McCain, said on the View just now, that she had friends with kids who are struggling.. maybe Clay just knee jerk reacting  🤷‍♀️ 

Fear: I’m still curious about your covid trial. Did they have you take an antibody test before you had the shot? To know for sure the antibodies weren’t showing up because you had the illness, asymptomatic perhaps.  I’d like to see everyone get an antibody test, for free, 3-6 mos after they get well.

I’ll match that EEEEE!

Do we know if he sings during these?

will I have to sign up for Instagram to see it? 😬

Can you see the link I posted?   I think that will be a good determining factor.

My daughter would go nuts if they told her to push one more button!  Her work has doubled since the start of the pandemic. The systems don’t match up so you grade in one program and have to transfer everything over to another program.  Unfortunately it’s just not one click.  Same with attendance.  She spends hours just inputting stuff in duplicate and in one case triplicate times!

Mik, I think eventually you are going to have to cave and get on the social media bandwagon.  

You should be able to see Clay's tweet just by simply Googling "Clay Aiken Twitter" and click on the first link.  Since he's a public figure, his tweets are public and anyone can read them.

It's the same with his Facebook and his Instagram account.

I'm sure he has truly private accounts for the things he truly wants to keep private....
