You know what? I won't say i told you so, but i will stand there and stare judgingly at them so they can FEEL the " I told you so" spewing from my body. Good Advice.

Hello, I am glad you are back. EX Navy, no wonder...My second son and my brother are both ex-navy and they both think ahead like you in another post talked about. Eight kids...lucky you. I raised three of my own then helped my daughter raise five. Your house must be bubbling with personalities.

Yes my oldest son was an alcoholic. I couldn't help him. I could not get him to even TRY to stop. It didn't end well for us. He took his own life at age 45 on his birthday. When a person doesn't want help there is nothing you can do. We tried interventions, we tried walking away, alcohol and drugs won.

yes maybe you are lol seriously I get it. You don't sound like Spock to me. Remember Vulcans don't get riled.
You sound like a kindred spirit to my brother. BE PREPARED always for any and everything. Don't give up on your loved ones, not everyone thinks ahead. Some of us less evolved people like to slide along life's slopes on our butts. Good luck sometimes we have to experience the bunders before we learn. It might help that you can always say "I told you so."
Teach yes, love harder.

Nope! no swelling or strange feelings. I do get this killer itch sometimes but it's not just in my feet, it's in different extremities at different times, but other than that, nothing.

Okay. Sure why not.

They can tell a lot by blood tests and visually as far as diabetes. If it's Type to you can control it with diet awareness. I know one person who lost enough weight that she's no longer diabetic.
Do your feet swell up or have any unique feelings in them?

Yes, I have been reading your entries with interest. You have a talent for expressing yourself with honesty. I can apreciate that. I have experienced some very similar things in my life, as well.

If I were to do a review, I would have to call out the punctuation (or lack thereof)
But perhaps, some of this may be intentional to allow your feelings to be expressed. You are the writer here, but I just wanted to give my thoughts on this. Another thing I need to mention is the incomplete wording, such as, in”S”, 2nd line. “Feels like the world is moving i slow motion.

I really do like your work and look forward to reading more of it. Thank you for sharing.

I agree. I think the reason so many people side with him, who have no reason to side with him, is because they've dug their heels in. They've been scorned by people who knew better than they did, and the only way out of it for them, mentally, is to not be in the wrong. So they convince themselves that they aren't. In order to not be wrong, Trump has to be good. So he is, and everyone who says he isn't is lying. I think getting out of this mess is going to be tricky, and I'm not sure we can. But out best shot is to stop putting Trump's followers on the defensive and get them to understand that they have a place among us if they want to have one--and they must have a place, otherwise they will never leave Trump's side. Why would they?

I'm sorry. Getting your house back and your daughter back is a blessing, albeit in disguise.I do hope the police get him first. He won't even realize what he did was so wrong. SADLY. Work on healing her, she needs your help. Thanks for sharing.

What is it????

Wow. I got nothing. Not a damn thing to talk about. I guess no news is good news, but the suspence is killing me! Things have been quiet. Too Quiet, (I've always wanted to say that) and i am , like, just waiting for a shoe to drop. I don't know if it will be bad or good, but i am really anxious about something. The kids are fine, the wife is fine, the job is fine. What could it be? I guess patience is what i need to get past this. But something's gonna come sooner or later......

The mind boggles!

Ever caught yourself just lost in a daydream? Or enjoying a really good nightmare? I love that shit! It amazes me how far and wild the mind will go if you just let it. Just sit back and let it go where it wants. I get most of my writing ideas from dreams, or moments when something weird crosses my mind and i just.... go. I still remember one of my favorite dreams, it makes me smile to remember it. For some reason i was running through a forest with a group of strangers that i felt responsible for, strange as that is. And we weren't running for nothing. For lack of a better discription, i will call what was chasing us Landsharks. Large, like the size of Jaws large. With a shark's head, a bears body (complete with fur and claws) and the ability to dive in and out of the ground like dolphins going through waves of water. As luck would have it, we only had one weapon. No, not the 50 cal. machine gun we needed. Or the rocket propelled grenade launcher that would have been so handy. Not even a sling shot. Just a sword. So to re-cap, I'm running through the woods, herding a group of strangers like MY life depended on them surviving, being chased by a pack of land swimming bear-sharks, hungry for our flesh, and all i got to protect us is a big butter knife.Sounds bad right? No! i fucking loved it! This is the type of shit i live for! Maybe next time i'll tell y'all about the flying werewolves in the abandoned naval ship. Peace!

Really?

I am a loving person. i wish no ill will upon anyone. Unless they deserve it. I wish peace on everyone. But fuck Israel. Gaza, The Ukraine, Russia, and every place else. I am a proud American, and an even prouder black man. Am i to understand that we sending billions, BILLIONS,to Israel for their war, and we giving Ukrainian refugees $3000 a month, a place to live, and health care? Seriously? We got people in congress that want to take away the $6 per person in FOOD STAMPS that needy AMERICAN families are receiveing, but let's fund a war somewhere. And i won't even mention that every time a black person says "Reparations" the government chokes up and screams broke.
this country is really ass-backwards.

It's good to be me!

Is it possible to like one’s self too much? I’m not being funny, I really like me. I like the way I stand for my beliefs, how loyal I am to friends and family, and how real I am to everyone, including myself. I enjoy my intelligence, my wisdom, how I make others feel, (even if I make some folks feel bad at times, they probably deserve it) my work ethic, all that. Not too fond of my body right now, but I’m working on that and I like the progress I am making. In general, it’s good to be me! I fuckin love it!

Yall got us fucked up

Ok, i may catch some flack for this one, but i am all out of fucks to give. As a black man in America, i am pissed to the core about all the money (some of MY tax dollars) the US is sending to Ukraine and Israel. They giving migrants from Ukraine debt cards with thousands of dollars on them, and places to live. Us folks who are decendants of the people that built this country (yes, the slaves) can't even get the forty acres and a mule we were promised. And they in Congress arguing about it. Not IF they want to send more money overseas, but how MUCH to send. Yet we say the word Reparations, and motherfuckers be like " We dont have the money." This is a spit in the face of all African Americans. Some thing has to change. Wonder what would happen if we (African Americans) decided to not vote for either the Dems or the Repubs, and backed a black independant? Or just not vote at all?

Check me out!

Wow! Two weeks on this carnivore diet and i feel good! I'm down 8 pounds ( i think) and i battled through the three or four days of brain fog and fatigue. All that is well and good, but i have one serious question that has nothing to do with dieting: Who's Head do i have to put a gun to to get a review around here? And yes i have requested them, and yes i have offered points, and yes i have posted them to forums like the shameless plug and what not. What am i doing wrong? (Bet you didn't see that coming!)

On my grind!

I must say, i am feeling great! My goals for this year are off to a good start. I'm writing again, and have gotten more involved with this site again. Already added a new chapter to my book, and still going. I am on a strange new diet called the Carnivore diet where basically i only eat meat, and i am DOWN six lbs. I'm back at the gym at least ten times a month, and it looks like i might be on the way to buying a new house this year. So far so good. ONward Ho!

The death of my procrastination

Ok, i'm gonna do it folks! I'm going to end the longest period of procrastination in my life. I am going to finish my book "Hell in Ypsi" this year, or die trying.I started writing this book over ten years ago, and i let life's drama and other possible excuse stop me. I have had the dream of writing a book since i was 12 years old. I think at 56 i'm really behind in this dream. But no more. I'm on a mission now. I feel it in my bones that this is one of the most important unfinished tasks left in my life. I got married, have kids that i have raised to be good adults, and even after some dumb mistakes, built a career that allows me to support my family. Finishing this book will give me a sense of completion. So, dear friend writers, I ask for support. Just read the first Hell in Ypsi ( and yes i know i have it spelled Ipsi in my first few chapters on here, but that was because of my thinking i would get in trouble for using the real city's name. Stupid, right?) And tell me what you think. I can take constructive criticism without being a jerk about it, and i just may need a proverbial foot to the ass from time to time. But i'm at this. Let's go!

Do unto others (in a good way)

What's up folks. I just recently got a comment on one of my posts, and i felt like a kid at Christmas. SOMEBODY READS ME! Kind of a childish reaction, but damn it feels good! Felt so good it made me do something i should have been doing all along. Reading other people's blogs. Weird how that never popped into my head until i realized how bad i wanted folks to read my shit. I guess it's a " Do unto others" type thang, Which ain't a bad way to go. Hey is there such a thing as growing OUT
of being an asshole?There may be hope for me yet!

In ____ we trust

Hope springs eternal! Boy, it is amazing what a talk with God can do for you. It's like talking to your best friend who happens to be the creator of everything! Seriously, i'm no bible thumper at all, and i definately don't believe most of the shit in the bible, that shit is man-written, by more than one man, and it's been white washed all to hell and gone over the years. Perfectly set up so that what you find in one verse can be taken the exact opposite way in another. but i digress. I believe in a higher power, and i call him God for lack of a better name, but i don't believe half the shit they put under his name, and that has served me well. I think HE goes by many names and appears differently to everyone. Anyway, when i awake i do my best to remember to thank him for breath in my body every morning. And i keep waking up! So big ups to God, Yaweh, Ganesha, Zeus, or whatever you wanna call HIM/HER, prayers are being answered, and i'm proof!
