Monday Second Day Of 2006

Hello All
Monday and I’m off from work. YEAH! The last of my three day weekend. Recapping the second half of my day Yesterday I got up just before noon and did all the funky fresh things, you know the three s’s, and went to the computer to start work on my project. Worked on that for about two hours and then went over to my folks for my black eyed peas and Greens. My brother had Barbequed as well so it was a nice meal for all. Dad was a little tired as I have been noticing him turning in early these days. Then again mother says he’ll get up in the middle of the night and eat a snack. Not much I can do there but he’s living out his days the way he wants to and if he’s happy I’m happy with him. 70 years old I just hate to see him so frail. I look at others his age and see how vibrate they are but then again they haven’t gone though what my father has either. My parents worked hard for what they have and provided for us. I can say I had a very good childhood  and being from a black family we lived a little higher on the hog then mast average black family during that time and the values they have instilled in us I will cherish the rest of my days. I am very grateful to still have them with us as they’ve both been though a lot this past year. They’re fighter and still kicking and I’m happy to see that as well. I chatted on line as I had 92 instant messages waiting for me to be answered. I guess I’m a popular person. However I do want to thank all for the well wishes and encouragement on my project as well. Started chatting with KEN today as well and come to find out we have so much in common it’s uncanny. I’m looking forward to chatting with him some more as well as getting to know him better. He travels often to my neck of the woods so the chances of us doing dinner or something are very good. Here’s to you my new found friend. My best friend Steve finally got his High speed cable connected after Time Warner had been giving him the run around as to who was suppose to run the line to his home. Long story there but they finally got it right and he’s up and running. Now I can send him some of the funny emails I receive from my friends over at NASA and around the world. I also walked him over the phone on how to install his Firewall as he didn’t have one on there except for the one windows provided and that does well but nothing like Zone Alarm and it’s free. Since he’s not really computer literate he’ll try to answer questions that really doesn’t pertain to what he needs to do but we got it up and running and it’s doing fine now. Thanks Zone Labs for the free software, I’ve been using it for years and it’s never failed me. Today I got up looked outside as it’s an unusual warm day especially this time of year. I even had the air on all last night. However it’s a beautiful day outside and I think I will take advantage of it later on in the day.  Don’t need to clean the vehicle as I did that last week and he’s still looking good and shinny. I’ll work on the project some more today and hit the gym as well to keep things tone. I don’t’ want to bulk up at all. With my Bubble butt it’s already hard to find pants that will fit me well. However I haven’t been getting any complaints from past lovers in that department. LOL Well that’s about it for now so until fingers meet keys all have a wonderful day and continue to be safe my friends. Glad to see all have made it through another year and may this year be a special one for all as well. Hugs.
