Goodbye 2008

and good riddance!! This year was a struggle at best. the one job I had didnt work out because of the terrible job market, I moved twice and the family isn't close like it should be, or at least like I want it. While I still wish for things in life, I'm blessed to have what I have. I realize it could be much worse for me. In my alone time, i spend it reading and praying. I'm far from being a bible thumper by miles, but keeping faith has certainly helped me thru some very trying times over the last year and a half.

My family really isnt close like we used to be. It's just so divided now, and it bothers me more than I thought it would. There's so many ways we can just come together on Sunday like we used to, if for nothing else just to hang out. Half of the family likes to go fishing, we'd always go bowling. Somebody has to step in and try to bring unity back to the family, I want to step up to the plate. I certainly have my work cut out for me.

Lastly, I'm still working on self. Some things I promised in years past still havent started, or at least started but not progressed. I have more to gain than to lose, and instead of waiting for the traditional "resolution" I've starting on some things long before now. If i don't stay with it, my health could be in real jeopardy....

I'm looking forward to 2009 for alot of reasons. I'm setting some new goals and the game plans are ready. I'm only looking up now.

Welcome President Obama

I'm so ready for the change....

Hello

I'm ashamed that I havent been here in OVER A YEAR. I'll try to be more disciplined from now on.

Attorney: Wal-Mart Collected On Deaths

Attorney: Wal-Mart Collected On Deaths

For this, walmart should burn in hell for all eternity. In the store I worked in, three associates died in the last year. I know for a fact all three of them were on the walmart health insurance, and I'm willing to bet my bank account they "insured" them. I've been anti-Walmart for a few months (meaning i shop there maybe once a month), I dont think I could go in there now without having a nasty attitude in the future.

Why we dont get along

My mother moved into her new place about a month ago. About a week ago I kept hearing a "squeak" nextdoor at some iron scrap yard place. It was a teeny kitty of about 4 weeks. He's so small its like holding a box of feathers. So my mom has been leaving food out for her so she can eat and get used to everyone. I had plans to take her to a vet this week because she's full of fleas, and to get shots, etc and generally get her checked out.

So fast forward to lastnite, my brother calls. Me and him were going at it about my grandmother and what he thinks is best, blah blah. I answer "what do you want now". "I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry, my dogs killed your cat". Not knowing what to say I hung up. How messed up is it that I'm watching Animal Precinct at the time? I got it my car and took the 10 minute drive south.....I re-injured my wrist over him! He has two huge Rotts that he treat better than he would treat his womens and "they just cut loose". Yea, like the other times cats have come up dead?

I swear we get along worse now....

Telemarketer fun?

This lady just goes bezerk for at least 9 minutes. It's funny and sad at the same time. I just didnt know what to say or think.

Blackberry woes

I found this story rather amusing. A few days ago, there was a rather large Blackberry outage (that either didnt affect me or I didn't notice). Well this happened at the worst time for an unlucky lad. Apparently it caused his girlfriend to break up with him cause he didnt get her emails. I guess it was too much for her to use her cell phone as a cell phone and just dial the damn number and call him. What a way to break up with someone. I think she may have been sleeping with his brother or something and that was a perfect out for her.....
