Wow time sure flies.....Sorry I haven't been on but life has thrown me a few curve balls this past year. I am now separated, in the process of selling my house and living with my oldest daughter in Indiana. I also had to drop Sr. from my name as Indiana does not allow it unless it is either on your birth certificate or you legally change it....bummer!  I have gained some of my lost weight back and feel much better for it. Lil' Blue has more lights on her than before, along with more chrome and a lot more miles but she is resting comfortable in the garage for the winter. Last month my little Princess Macyn celebrated her 1st. B-day and loves having Paw-Paw around. Still trying to get my mind back on writing but for now just trying to heal and get life back on track. I miss you all and hope this Holiday season finds you all Healthy, Happy and Safe.

Sorry I have been M.I.A. but I'm just trying to cope with everything and the Kid is not winning the battle so far. I have posted a couple more pics of my little princess Macyn though. She is growing fast and coo's into the phone now when I call. I am dealing with a pulled muscle in my back now on top of everything else. I have gotten my appetite back somewhat, so I stopped losing weight finally. I just hope warm weather comes soon, being stuck in the house is not helping things. I miss you all and before you know it the Kid will make his Grand Re-Entrance.....Hugs and High 5's to all my friends...I miss you guys n Gals....;)

12/10

Just wanted to thank everyone for the well wishes both on here and email and let you know it means a lot too me. I still haven't gotten any real relief from the new meds and since march I have lost 50lbs. I have stopped losing weight so it has helped somewhat. Getting into the Holiday Spirit is all over but it still has yet to come to me. It's been rough because my Dad passed 4 years ago and his and my birthday are only 3 days apart and we always shared a cake together. I see him everytime I look in the mirror now because even though I grew taller I look just like him..

Enough of me, Thank you again for all the kind words and for being my friends...I really miss you all a lot and keep hoping to beat this depression soon..I love you all like family and think about y'all a lot...Thanks!!

Okay no news on me this time (nothing has changed anyway) BUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would like to sprout my wings and brag a little though....;)

My oldest daughter gave birth to my 6th. Grandbaby on 11/7/2008 @ 2:43 Central time!!! Macyn Elizabeth made her entrance into this world weighing in a 7lbs. 13oz. and 22in. long. She has bright blue eyes and a head-full of reddish blonde hair. Mother and Daughter are doing great and I wish I was there to hold her but I will have to settle on pics for right now.....So now Paw-Paw needs to go shopping so Maycn will have some pretty clothes and socks to wear and some toys to play with...;) If it sounds like I am very happy right now....well you're right....;)

Only 5 reviews this month.....dang! Seems like it just takes me longer now to write a review, at least one that I feel good enough about to publish anyway. Things are still not at 100% yet and I have been sleeping a lot since they upped my doseage on my medication. Even had a few real nice days to ride but I just didn't feel I was coherant enough to chance it on 2 wheels...;( Things will get better I am sure, it is just going to take some more time. I will try to get on either later today or tomarrow and get some reading done....Just wanted y'all to know that the Kid was still around....lol ;)

Rough weekend for this Kid......I just went through 2 days that took a toll on me but it made me realize we all need to enjoy what we have in the present and not dwell in the past or count on the future. The 17th would have been my Mom's 84th Birthday and today the 19th would have been Curley's 72nd Birthday, both very close to my heart. Even though it was rough I know they are both watching over me and miss me as much as I do them.

I guess what I am trying to say is be thankful for those close to you and never take them for granted, because they could be gone tomarrow. I know I am thankful for all my friends on here and y'all have showed me the true meaning of a friend. Thank you all for being yourselves and letting me be part of your life!!

God Bless you all!!

Going to try and ease back into it and see how it goes, I may not comment a lot to begin with but I am going to read as much as I can. Things have begun to level off and now I just need to climb back up the ladder of life. My online time has gone way down in the past month or so and I need to ease in as I go. I have a bunch to review, I just need to find the right stimulas to get me going full speed like I used to be....Thanks for all the support, it has been what has kept me going...;)

Two days and no more episodes so hopefulley it is curing itself....My White Blood Cell count was slightly elevated but I normally have congestion this time of year and the Dr. confirmed it could be due to an infection. I was also told to eat regular, even if it was only a small meal. I guess the stress just got the best of me and with my not sleeping well caused me to start passing out and the Dr. seems to agree as well. At least it is fixable and this Kid is gonna start fighting back!! Thanks for all the prayers and good thoughts....;)

Got the results today but too late to call and ask about them.....Good news is my tests came out normal....bad news is now I am really scared of what is happening and why?? I will call in the morning and see what the next step is....

10/7/2008

Still no results and after today I have grounded myself from driving. I went to get my wife a Bday card and had a small episode while driving. I am fine I pulled over and sat until it passed and got my butt home  safe and sound. I sure miss everyone and logged on to find all the new changes on here... I love the look but it is going to take a little getting used too....Take care all...Did I mention I miss y'all real bad!!

10/3/2008 Well they played vampire on me(4 tubes of blood) and now I am just waiting for the results of the tests they ran. Some good news on my end though, my daughter went into labor but she is a month early. So they have medically stopped labor for now and want her to go at least 1 week maybe 2 before they let it proceed. My daughter is doing fine (this will be #3) If she holds out til the 17th. my grandaughter will be born on my Mom's B-day. Did I mention I miss all of you? Well I do and soon as I can I will be back. Thanks to everyone for your prayers and good wishes! ;) 9/30/2008 Not doing well right now... I have a Dr. appt. in the A.M. to figure out why I have been passing out lately. I woke up with a knot on my head on the bathroom floor the other day. I usually don't ask for prayers but this time I think I may need a few. I will try to keep you informed but don't worry too much, this Kid ain't going without a fight.....;) My appetite has not been very good lately but my mind still craves good food, so I have gotten into reviewing some of my favorite exotic meats that have been my favorites for years. I hope you enjoy my little trip done the tasty highway of the meats I love to eat more than beef, pork or poultry! As the say Bon Appetit!!! 8/9/08 Today has not been a good day for me and I sit here with tears of sadness over the loss of a good friend. Of all my years on the Internet I have made many friends but very few have I ever met in person. One such friend was Curley who I met from being a host of a game room on Yahoo. Curley was a great friend and was always there for me and helped me keep things running smooth. We met in person finally in June of 2005 when Rhonda and I returned from our Honeymoon. Rhonda and I considered Curley as part of the family and his passing is heavy on our hearts! Curley was and always will be close to my heart and a great Southern Gentleman. He passed away July 21, 2008 after fighting a long time. Rest in peace my Friend, I am gonna miss you!
