Three Days Till The New Year

Hello My Friends.
Hope all are having a wonderful day. What a lovely hump morning were having in Houston Texas. It was cold again this morning but warmed up by noon time. However I brought a sweater as when I went out for dinner I would feel the weather changing to cool again. I’ve never been in the desert but I’m told at night it gets cool and we’re having that affect now. It’s really a nice day out not a cloud in the sky and no rain until Friday.

I saw my neighbor out this morning who lives across the street from my home whom we’ve nick named Fred Flintstone as he does kind of favor him. Big burly and semi hairy of a man with block hands and Feet to boot too. Gets my attention every time he comes outside. However he’s for sure off limits as they are very Christian folks and I don’t need to be labeled as the neighborhood queer. Still I thought he was having some issues with his truck this morning and of course I went out to offer my services and refresh my memory of him. However he had no trouble and ended up chatted for a bit. Man he’s a talker too. Makes you wonder while he’s having Sex is he talking all the way through it. One can only imagine.

I packed me a lunch today as I knew the kitchen at work wasn’t going to have a good dinner. I had some leftovers from the holidays and it was just as good as the day it was cooked. For dinner I ate out as again as the dinner menu wasn’t going to be something to my liking. I received five new intakes today on a none scheduled day but I had a feeling that was going to happen since it’s been a holiday for us the past couple of days. Boss won’t be back till next year so things will run smoothly all this week. No pressure at all. Well that’s about it for now as I’m just coasting long. So until fingers meet keys all to take care and have a great day and enjoy the rest of the week as I know I surely will. Hugs my friends and all do be safe. Want to hear from you all again soon.

CHRISTMAS DAY

MERRY CHRISTMAS ALL

I hope all are having a wonderful day today. As for me I have to work half a day. :-( In my line of work someone has to do it. However I am grateful to still have my parents with us one more year. Read this Morning that James Brown die early this Xmas morning in a hospital in Atlanta. Reposts say he was admitted yesterday for an illness and its unknown as to the cause of death at the moment.

I can’t help but think of my Ex as he sits in Jail on this Xmas day. With five kids who are I’m sure being well taken care of but I do feel sorry that they can’t have their father there with them. I can’t help but wonder what was going through his mind when all this was going down as he knew right from wrong for sure. Still at times he was acting like his fifteen year old and although he did a good job of raising them to a point he was holding them kids back but enough of that.

When I get to work I’m not doing SHIT. This day and tomorrow they are going to pay me for doing nothing. Just go in my office and close the door for sure. Lunch should be nice but I won’t eat much as mother would shoot me when I show up and full already. They have been slaving over the stove for two days so this year it aught to be special. No I know it will be special as I do have then both still here and that’s a blessing in itself. Well that’s about it for now so until fingers meet keys I’m wishing you all a HAPPY LITTLE MERRY CHRISTMAS.

Three Days Till Xmas

Hello My Friend.

Well its Three days before Xmas and the traffic here is horrible today. I hate traffic even though I’m driving and automatic right now makes one glad that my Rav4 is out of commission right now. The standard would of wore me out with all the stopping and starting. It was awful cold this morning as it was sixty six degrees in the house when I got up and being a native of Houston you know I quickly turned on the heater. Sixty Five degrees would be cold to use down here. However it was nice out by the time I left for work. Went and picked up my father from dialyses as it seems like everyone in my family had something to do. Still I didn’t mind as it gives me a little quality time with my dad. Don’t know how much longer he will be here so I try to spend as much time with him as possible. He’s a fighter I can say that so that’s a good thing. When he’s tired enough he’ll know when to rest.

Traffic was horrible today as I mentioned. Seems like every one was getting they’re last minute shopping done today or leaving out of town. I saw two wrecks as I have to travel three major highways before making it to work. I guess that’s to be expected. Work was hectic today as were releasing kids temporarily to go home for the holidays. We only had twenty this year that are eligible to go, just a lot of paper work involved with the process in case one of them decides they don’t want to return we’re ready to take action. At this point I’m just ready to get the year over with and move on with life. Just a lot on my mind these days but I’m managing it. No real special plans this weekend as I’ll be spending some time with my best friend over the weekend and maybe have a date later Saturday night is about it. I have to work half a day Xmas and a full day New Years so I for sure won’t be getting drunk or anything like that. Just my luck they might have the U.A. lady there to test us all. They’ve really been hitting me on regular bases as they won’t find anything on or in me as I don’t do drugs except for what the doctor prescribe. I know its all computer generate but still makes one wonder what they are looking for. Needless to day I’ve come back clean every time. I have to say mother raised some good kids here and I’m proud of here for doing so.

Weather changed drastically when the sun fell however the drive home from work was nice and easy for a Friday. I guess a lot of folks were still out shopping. Glad I take care of that before October 31. Well that’s about it for now. I’m looking forward to a nice weekend and nice dinner when I get off work on Monday. I won’t eat at work as I don’t want to spoil my appetite for mothers home style cooking. Although the feed them well on the job there is no place like a home cooked meal. Well my friend all do take care and have a lovely weekend in the process. I’ll be looking forward to hearing from you all here soon. So until fingers meet keys. Hugs to you all and Happy Holidays.

Five Days Till Xmas

Hello Friends.

I hope all are well and enjoying the holiday season so far. Just five more days till Xmas and I for one are ready to get it over with for sure. I’m just ready to start a new year. Looking back things were going well until November came around, Long story there so I won’t go back into that at all. Looking out my window on this Hump day it’s very gloomy out and rain in the forecast later today. It’s suppose to be cold come Xmas so it will feel like it some way or another.

Took my father to the eye doctor for his check up and he’s still having issues with his eyes. Bleeding still in his eyes but good news he has a Doctors appointment in January to correct the problem. We just have to keep him walking as he’s got degenerating disease and his legs are really getting week. Since he’s gotten his Electric wheel chair he spends the majority of this time in it. It’s funny how the children become the parents but that’s the cycle of life. I’m just happy to still have them around for another Holiday Season. Well that’s about it for today as I know it’s short but really not much else going on my way. I do wish all to have a great day and sit back to take in the moments around you as you never know what tomorrow will bring. So until fingers meet keys all have a good one and looking forward to chatting with you all again soon. Hugs my friend.

Ten Days Till Xmas.

Hello My Friends.

Well Ten days to Xmas and I for one will be glad for it to get here and be over with as I’m ready to start the new year for sure. Just can’t believe this year is gone already. Still that’s a good thing. Nephew’s Birthday was yesterday and he turned twenty one. I gave him some money as he has just about everything he could every want. My parents got him a vehicle last year and he’s in to computers and video games so he’s got a laptop and several gaming consoles. Last year for him to be in college as well and I have yet to recall what his major is as he’s changed it three times already. I guess he’ll know by the time he’s ready to graduate. Over all he’s a good kid. Took the day off on Friday for some well me time as I would have been up with Will this weekend but he failed to tell me his twin brother’s wedding was this weekend. So I’m taking care of some well needed business now.

Friday I ventured off and got me a well needed hair cut. I just hope I didn’t get it cut to short as we have been having some funky weather here and I don’t need to be getting sick. Folks at work have been sniffling and cough left and right however I haven’t contracted any of that yet, knock wood. Decided to go by Best Buy and get a battery back up unit they had on sale for $39.99 which gave me an instant saving of $30.00. I love that Best Buy now has instant savings as the mail in rebates were so miss leading. One of the reasons why I stop going some of the electronic stores. However Best Buy is winning me over again as the print says what it means. Now if we can get Circuit City to do the same. The visit to the story wasn’t so bad but the traffic was horrible which is why I don’t do malls especially this time of year. My mother called me this morning wanting me to go to Macy’s with her to pick up something and I told her “HELL NAH!” Fool I’m not.

Recapping the week. Only got three now kids at work to intake Tuesday and non on Thursday. Of course I wasn’t there on Friday so I have no clue if they received any that day or not. We did release twenty one or so on Friday so the population has been reduced for the holidays. The again never say never. So far it’s been a good nice productive weekend for me and may take in a movie later tonight. I’ve managed to drop my video tapes to ten of the twelve I had sitting on my VCR. I guess it’s going to be a marathon Sunday for sure. Well that’s about it for now. I hope all are enjoying your weekend as I know I surely am. Me time I really like that and it’s been all about me this weekend. Well I have been getting in some work here and there but it’s been lovely. Have the house to myself and it’s been a blast. So until fingers meet keys all have a great weekend and looking forward to chatting more with you all. Hugs my friends.

13 Days Till Xmas

Hello My Friends.

Hope all had a good weekend. Mine was nice and slow. I managed to get some work taken care of as well. However it was just too short. Taking next Friday off for some me time which will be good as I’ve been with my dad just about everyday last week and twice this week. He had eye surgery yesterday and that went well. My mother woke me up at five thirty in the morning panicking saying they had no water in which she said he paid the water bill. However after I was awakened and my bladder needing of relief I found out ours was out as well as I live in the neighborhood next door to then so it had to be a water main broken somewhere. Later that morning after I got my faculties together it started coming back on. As I mentioned my dad was having eye surgery this cold raining morning as it went well but they had a hard time keeping him away after surgery was over not to mention I needed to get him to dialyses after that but there was a mix up as none of the nurses were informed that he needed to be out of there by ten. After I started complaining why it was taking so long they informed me that they were having a hard time keeping him awake and was going to let him sleep it off, I told them on no your not for one I need to get him to dialyses and two that worries me that you can’t keep him awake. After about two cups of coffee he stated coming out of it. I got him dressed as well as feed as he was ready to eat too He woofed that Ham, egg and cheese sandwich down so fast you would think he hadn’t eating in days. About ten thirty we finally left the hospital on our way to dialyses as he was suppose to be there at ten however they kept a bed open for him.

Got to work and on the way I saw eight wrecks from the horrible weather this day. Folks just don’t know how to slow down when the roads are wet. I have to say I have been guilty of this in the past as well but know better now. I just get my behind in the right lane and stay there when it’s wet and pouring like it was. Since I have to drive forty miles one way and hitting three of Houston’s major freeways I guess I was bound to see a lot of accidents. I also have to pass ten bookstores on the way to work; no I’m not tempted to go into them as I have gotten that out of my system for sure. This I can say there are doing some business this holiday season as the parking lot have been full. Then again this time of year they usually do a lot of business as the straight men who are suppose to be looking for their wives gift or out getting a pray themselves instead of doing what they are suppose to be doing. I’m so glad I don’t have the urge to go back in one for meaning less sex. Not much has changed but the faces plus I don’t like smoky rooms or meaningless blow jobs, just doesn’t do it for me. I need someone of my own as the men that frequent those places aren’t looking for a relationship that’s for sure.

Come four o’clock I was really tired as I’m not use to getting up that early. Hell I’m usually one to go to bed at two thirty AM because I work evening shift. Still when it was over and I finally made it home I think I was in a coma until the next morning as I really don’t remember much of the night. This morning for up early again to take my dad back to the eye doctor to have his bandages removed. Good news, no infections and he’s 20/80 vision in just one day so his eye is responding well and that’s not with glasses. Still won’t be letting him drive as I think his driving days are over. I am concerned about him sleeping so much as well as his diabetes. So far he’s keeping that under control. He has another appointment next week and in January for more laser surgery to control the bleeding in his eyes. Doctor says for now they seem to be clearing own their own.

I’m taking the day off this Friday for some me time as I may have mentioned already. May go out to dinner with someone but will have to wait to see what his schedule is like. No other big plans going on that I know of, just playing it by ear for now. I have been avoiding the malls as I hate them which is why I have my Xmas shopping done every year before October 31 of each year. Starting in August really helps too. Just need to get my Xmas card ready to send out now. I think I’m going to do something with a picture of me as I haven’t been in touch with a few folks in a while and it will give then a change to refresh their memory of me plus it would be something personal as well. No, I won’t be sending out nude photos of me although I take them of other folks for my publication, Strange huh? Oh well. My bother has started decorating the house just a tad as I told him not to go over board with it as I hate cleaning all that stuff up. Well that’s about it for now. I hope all enjoy the rest of your week as mind is almost over for sure. Looking forward to hearing from you all so until fingers meet keys all take care and big hugs.

A Recap Of The Week.

Hello MY Friends.

Saturday afternoon here and I have to day it’s been a slightly busy week at that. Recapping the week I found out Tuesday that my dad was having some bleeding in his eyes from his diabetes again after he was doing so well for the past three months. I knew he had some bleeding in his left eye and but now he was having bleeding in the right eye in which he just has cat removal about a month ago so it did raise some concerns. However made and appointment to get him to the doctor on Thursday since the doctor isn’t in the office on Wednesday afternoons which would have been the time he could go since he has dialyses in the morning that day. Thursday got him to the doctor and ended up going to a second doctor as well. Both doctors agreed that it was ok to go head for him to have is Cat removed on this coming Monday so we’re still a go for that.

As you already know my ex turned himself in this Wednesday awaiting trial. I have made no attempt to go near there or contact him. However I have been thinking of what he’s going thorough at the moment. When you have been that close to some one you really don’t stop loving them or at least it’s not that way for me. However there is no way in hell that he and I could ever be as for one I guess I wasn’t young enough and two there is just no future. I won’t stop being his friend but I won’t support him financially as I don’t want to set myself up for failure as I know the answers there already. However working in the corrections field for 21 years I know how important it is to have a friend on the outside to be there for support as he’s in for a long haul. He’s got some good skills that can be useful to him in the prison as he’s a good cook and hair styles so those two alone will make some of his stay easy. Then again a lot of folks have this myth that he’s going to get raped in. I have to say that depends on what unit he’s sent to. From my experience of working with sexually offenders they usually tend to stick together as they of course have things in common and the general population although they might not care for them won’t usually bother them as they don’t want to take a change on getting another case and messing up their chances of getting out. Jeff has some medical issues according to him as most of the time I felt he was faking as one minute he’s be fine and the next he’d be what seem like to me acting. Still I have put that behind me and a year and a half later since I called it quits this is were he’s ended up. However a good thing for me has come from this as I now have and ending to my six part story for the Second year’s issues. I will call it “Desperate House Husband.” Should make a great story for sure as when I was with him it was always drama going on in his life and a lot of it could have been prevented himself but he was stubborn and bull headed which I saw reflect in his kids as well. Then again you’ll only hear one side of the story as there are two sides to every story. This I assure you that mine will be more factually that if he was telling it. Some of you have expressed your concerns as to would I be implemented in any of this. Since I have been broken up with him for over a year and a half now and rarely was out there I think it’s not likely. Plus kids just aren’t my thing as I told him when I saw him looking at twinky looking men in the internet. The last time I talked to him he told me he’d rather die than go to prison but with no money and no where to run to not to mention it was getting really cold outside and your picture plastered all over the local news, well a warm prison cell I guess was looking might good to him about now. I have no clue where he’s been hiding all this time as I was under the impression that he was leaving the country. Well that phase of his life is over and now it’s on to a new one. My problem I can’t seem to stop thinking about him. No sexually but more of what going to happen and what he’s going through as he does suffer bipolar disorder and bouts of depression. I think I was thinking more of him as my training on Friday was on Suicide prevention and I saw a lot of the signs in Jeff that they talked about in the class. Still life goes on and it’s not my problem. I did try to move the world for him but realized I needed to move on with my life as when I was with him I was constantly falling backwards. I feel when your in a relationship the two should work together to reach common goals they set for each other to reach. We talked about that but never could get to that point. Still it will all be told in my Story. Sorry all will have to wait a year to read it but I have this years story all ready in place.

At work I have to say it was a good week. Received ten new intakes for the week but they weren’t a hassle to get completed and it went like clock work. Was last to work on Thursday of course as I was with my father on doctors appointments. I had my last class of training on Friday for the year to complete forty hours of my eighty hours to keep my certification. Bad news is I have to repeat all the classes again next year. I guess that’s a part of life as it does get old after twenty one years. Still it’s my bread and butter so I go with the flow and not make waves as well as set an example for the new employees. They set up Xmas decoration this week and it’s starting to look like Xmas for sure. Still driving my dad truck as it will be a little while until I get my vehicle fixed. I’ll explain that later. Over all things are rolling along and I feel good as to the decisions I made as well. I’ve been chatting with some great new friend on line and they have been very supportive as well. No plans for this weekend just kind of lazy and getting some things take care of. Well that’s about it for now as I hope all are having a great weekend. Looking forward to chatting with a few of you again soon. So until finger meet keys all have a good weekend and take care. Hugs to you all.

Update on my Ex.

Hello My Friends
Just wanted to send and update on my Ex. Got a call from my best friend around dinner time saying that he turned himself in early this morning about 1:30 AM to the local police in his area. I looked it up on the news as well so I guess it won’t be long before he goes to trial. Well I guess I have an ended to my story I’m intending to write for one of my publications. I’ll just have to be careful of the sexual content especially when it comes to the kids. However I won’t write about sex with kids as that’s not my thing and it really turns me off. However I feel this is something that needs to be told or at least my side of it and I know it’s all good as it’s plenty of drama in it for sure. Well that’s all I have to say for now so until fingers meet keys. Ill make sure to keep all posted on what’s going on for sure as I feel this isn’t the last of it.

Hump Day But No Humping Going On.

Hello My Friends.

Hope all are doing well on this Hump day. Me I’m rolling right along. Two days left and I can start the weekend for sure. I’m a little concerned about my father at the moments as he’s starting to have some bleeding in the eyes again from his Diabetes. He was doing so well there for the past three months especially after he had his laser surgery and cat removal. Still I made and appointment for him to see the doctor Thursday. I would have gotten it sooner but he has Dialyses on Wednesday morning and the eye doctor isn’t there in the afternoon on Wednesdays. Hopefully there won’t be anymore damage and they can recommend a treatment. He’s suppose to have Cat surgery on Monday but they may cancel that since he’s starting to have some issues.

Still no word on Jeff as I feel he may have fled the country. Folks who knew of us have been inquiring about him but at this point I have no news to tell. I do wish him well on his decision as it doesn’t look good for him at all. However I can’t worry about him as I have my own issues to deal with especially with my father. Don’t need any distraction at all so any bad element I do dismiss and move forward for sure. Work has been good and positive for sure. Everyone is getting into the Xmas spirit and it’s been great to see everyone smiling for a change. Not that we don’t laugh and joke all the time but it’s really been pleasant to go to work lately. I only received three new intakes on Tuesday and we’ll be releasing about 16 on the 15^th of this month. Xmas dinner is scheduled the 14^th of this month and the graduation is on the 15^th and they are out the door. However I’m not going to be there on the 15^th as I took the say off. Plus it’s my Nephews Birthday, 21 finally. He’s a good kid for the most part. I don’t care of some of decision in his life as far as being a person but who am I to tell him how to live his life. We live and learn from our mistakes and surely choose our destiny. As long as he’s not on drugs and out making stupid decisions I’m fine with him. As I said he’s doing ok.

Well that’s about it for now. I hope all are having a good week so far. Hump day and no humping here. Still it’s all good. I guess this kind of weather brings it out in folks. It’s all good as I’d love to be making love in front of a fire place with someone I care about very much. I just seem to be picking the wrong men. I for sure will never fool around with a married man which is all I seem to attract. However I’m not desperate so married men for sure are and will be out of the picture. These past few so call relationships I’ve learned a lot about myself in general and know the path I want and need to take and on that note I’m going to close here so until fingers meet keys. Hugs to you all and have a good one my friend. Chat soon as I’ll be looking forward to it.

December Is Here.

Hello My Friends

Hope all are doing well. December has finally and arrive and just about to put another year behind me. I have to say the year has gone by quickly. No complaints from me over it, as its been a good year to me for the most part. Some adjustments I have to make now for the new year but over all I have to say it’s been a good year. My weekend was lazy and somewhat productive. Told my folks to leave me be as I need to get some of my work done and they did. No calls which was nice. One thing about those who still have their elderly parents, we should be there for then but at the same time we also need to have a life as well. There has to be a balance there and I try to keep that.

Friday night was the company Xmas party and has a great time. Got to shake my thang on the dance floor something I don’t do often since I don’t do bars or night clubs. Mostly keep my practice done at the house in the bathroom mirror. J LOL Saturday morning I did regret it as I sore most of the day. Felt like I did an all night sex a thon. You know twisted every which way but loose. Over all I still have my moves as some of the guest told me so. (Can you say big Ego as I grin from ear to ear?) I met some of my co workers families and some old work mates as well. All come out of the wood work during the holidays. Was nice to see these folks and catch up as well. I had a nice lunch with my best friend Saturday and worked on project stuff as well. Sunday was a total lazy day. After I got the paper and read all the sales I did some much needed catching up on video. Since I work evenings I have to tape my shows and the weekends are usually when I find the time to catch up. However now the internet has come into play as the networks are now putting the weeks episodes on line now. I guess to give the video I Pod some competition. I had the opportunity to test one as a co worker had one and it’s nice. However I don’t see a use for one. Why pay to watch a show when I can get it for free? Only bad thing about it is I can’t watch it at work as I’ve noticed most websites are going to flash now and the job hasn’t updated their flash players so I have to wait until I get home to catch up.

Over all my friends it was a nice relaxing weekend. Just three more weeks till Xmas and the start of a new year. I’m working half a day Xmas and all day new years however it’s all good. It’s not like I have any thing planned. I hope all have a good week as I will try to keep this up since things are slowing down for me now. Just have to stay focused to my task and not let bad elements bring me down. As I tell other and practice myself Life is about challenges and if we’re not up to the challenge we won’t make it. LORD knows I’ve had some in my life time but it’s time for me and I have pushed all that of the past behind me and moved forward. I would advise others to do the same as the past is the past and live it way to short and one of my workers sister said at her brothers funeral. Something I already knew as well as I learned that back in high school from one of my teachers. I’m still here alive and kicking so I can say life has been good to me as we make of it what we will. Still no word on my Ex as I feel he may have fled the country. I have no ill feeling toward him for what he’s done and I do hope he’s safe but eventually time will run out and living your life on the run isn’t something I want to do the rest of my life. Constantly looking over your shoulders to see who’s watching you or work will this be the day I get caught. I can’t phantom that at all. So until fingers meet keys all be safe these holidays and chat with you all soon.
