Dia Cuatro de Julio

Worked on the sprinkler system and outside most of the day....yeah..it was hot.

Later in the day went over the the rents-in-law and barbecued and did a little pool action. It was fun and relaxing.

We watched the craziest show. I don't remember the name (maybe one of you will) about the people that hoard stuff? Holy crazy! I have to admit though - I think the producers probably have a significant role in making it look as bad as possible and make the situation worse if possible. But then again..some of that crap looks real! (and crap if both figurative and real).

Finished up the night with Never Say Never (Justin Bieber). I've actually heard good stuff about it - and it was OK. It's a crazy sociological discussion about how he got to where he it, but I'll save it for another day.

Holy Comments..

Well - as you can tell, I am neither an expert nor consistent and blogging. I would like to be but I'm not there yet.

Anyway - I just clicked on the comments section. HOLY HANNAH! I guess I didn't really realize anyone was actually reading this stuff!..lol...

Thank you so much for all the comments! It makes me feel like people care! And if you don't care - well at least your reading the blog..hahaha..

So thanks!

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!!!

Don't give up...Just play your game the best you can.

Ok..So i'm just trying to get the hang of this...there's always going to be some glitches..I just realized that that the first part isn't showing up...and the audio didn't record on either one..Hopefully I'll get better at this...lol..

Part 1

Part 2

The other guy might be bigger, better, have more money, etc..etc..etc..(heck - it might not even be another guy - it's anything that tries to bully you around) But that doesn't mean you give up.  There's not a lot of background, but basically the professional baseball player (Dante) who refers to himself in third person all the time, took the other guys girl friend. Basically he has no chance to win her back and so it's looking dim. But he still cares about her and confront Dante when he realizes that he doesn't care about her. They make a wager that he never should have taken. But he has to...I ended the clip early, but the point is - it doesn't matter if he beats the guy or not - he made the right choice when he chose to stand up against him.

My independence Day!

Every year since 2009, I celebrate July 2 as one of my greatest personal independence days. It was the day that I was finally released from the hospital after months and months of what is without question one of the most difficult times of my life. I want to shed some light on the myth of individualism. Despite the fact that I had countless days of personal struggle where I had to push myself well beyond what I thought I had the ability to do....I COULD NOT HAVE DONE IT WITHOUT THE SUPPORT OF FRIENDS, FAMILY, AND LOVED ONES LIKE YOU! Whatever you did for me, whether it was a simple prayer offered up for me when you heard about my situation, or you were there day after day after tireless day with me as I drug you through some of the worst days of my life....I WANT TO SAY THANK YOU FROM THE ABSOLUTE BOTTOM OF MY HEART. THANK YOU. Happy 4th of July weekend!
