Today has been good. Nevertheless, I did sleep my day away.
Jim is off today from his second job at Albertson’s. Good for him. He deserves it. He and my mom are watching Affinity War now. She and I already watched it though. lol.
So I hit up Raging Blast 2 for a while (too long for that matter). It still has a decent fan base, though only in ranked match. I was able to pick up what I forgot pretty easily. I did find it very strange how it is so easy to do the rage combo. I’ll fight people tomorrow. I’m a little burnt out from DBFZ.
I did my two anniversary reviews today – both poems. lol. I find it cumbersome how hard it is to critique poems. I mostly do praise. lol.
So I’m trying to print my first two story chapters to give to my friend Craig to give to his friend who published a book. Unfortunately, I cannot successfully wirelessly sync my printer to my computer. I’d love to figure it out but I have this to do and I have to get ready for service tonight. Apparently, there is driver issue. I tried to fix it but it required that I purchase something. lol. We’ll figure it out.
Well I have to get ready. Goodbye.

Today has been very good. I did get out of bed late as usual, but I was able to do my two anniversary reviews. Chad called me when my mom and I went to Trader Joe’s for some things. It was too loud to talk so I didn’t answer. Then he called again when I was putting away the groceries. I called him back but he didn’t pick up. He should call again. lol.
Dragonball FighterZ is getting old. So I’m going back to DB Raging Blast 2. I haven’t played the PS3 in a long time. Even with the USB charge cord plugged into the controller I couldn’t scroll up or going sideways on the cross media bar. Then it worked after a few minutes. Oh, and I had to update my PS3 too. I thought there might be a problem signing in because it’s been so long. Fortunately I was able to sign in. I haven’t played at all today though.
Tomorrow I will try to get up early and get a jump start on my day.
Jim and my mom are doing financial things – concerning what will happen if Jim or my mom dies. They are also doing retirement planning.
My mom got our own Netflix account. We’ll be able to watch the next season of Tales of Arcadia. It may be a few months away but my mom and I can re-watch the old episodes. lol.
It is a bit chilly out. It’s been that way for like a week. It should be warming up soon. I prefer the cold over the heat any day. lol.
I try so hard to be friends with Ann but she is still so short with me. She was so nice as a teenager. I don’t know what happened.
I plan to take the English exam within a week. But when I do pass it, I will have to upload a pic of myself. I have a Nevada ID. I think I’ll have to scan it. They didn’t say that though.
Well I have to play Mr. Potato Head with my mom – you heard right, Mr. Potato Head.

Well today was blood day. My mom took me. I had to wait for like thirty minutes. I had two orders-my CBC check and my triglyceride level. I got one big vial and one regular one. After that we went to a breakfast joint called Breakfast Kitchen. We went there one time before. This time I had the bacon and sausage omelet with hash browns. It was good!- a lot better than Denny’s or IHOP in my opinion. We used a thirty phone dollar coupon. With the coupon we had to spend thirty dollars and then we get fifteen bucks off.
My mom wants us to do go to the breakfast place every Monday. Hopefully, Jim will be able to go with us a few times. lol.
I believe Jim worked from 11 A.M. to 4 P.M. He’ll be working all day tomorrow too.


But you have not learned so in Christ if you have heard Him and been taught Him As the truth is in Christ. That you be renewed in the Spirit of your mind. That you put off concerning your former conduct, the corrupt man in its deceitful lusts. And put on the new man created according to God in true righteousness. Put away lying and speak truth with your neighbor for you are members of one another. Let he who steals steal no longer but let him work with his hands what is good so he can offer to he who has need.

I just got most if not all of the above scripture segments. I did it just today. (= Well my ride to the Monday night meeting will be here soon. Goodbye.

Today has been okay. I slept my morning away again. It was about 7:30 A.M. when I was up and awake – and then I went back to sleep and woke up at about 10:45. Nuts! After my quiet time I forwent the PS4. My plan was to do two anniversary reviews. Then I saw on my phone that Gio had returned my text from yesterday. It was a two hour texting session. Time just flew by. One of the things we discussed was God’s greatness, heaven, and a little about his walk with the Lord. Then we talked about this and that. It was nice to touch base. lol.
Jim went to the Apple store at the Forum Shops at Caesar’s Palace. He’ll be getting a brand new phone in about a week. It will be the same version though which is the 6. So I will not be getting his old phone. Jim has never gotten a new phone in his life. lol. He’s happy.
Ann was a little snippy with me yesterday. I asked her what her on call job was and she told me it was bartending. I knew she bartended but I didn’t know she had two bartending jobs. She got upset because I didn’t know. Oh well, she’ll get over it. If only she knew Jesus.
It is cold today!-even with a sweater on. Nevertheless, I like the cold. lol. I like it particularly when there is a fireplace.
My mom and I made blueberry muffins. It’s made with artificial blueberries though. They still taste good however.
My mom and I are watching a mini-series called The Triangle. It’s about a group of people who are selected by a rich dude to investigate the apparently supernatural occurrences that are happening. It’s pretty good. Sam Niel is in it. He’s the dude who played Dr. Grant in Jurassic Park. I like him as an actor.
Ricky is going to Calvary Paradise in the morning. That stinks. I like it when he takes me to the morning Lone Mountain 9 A.M. service. The only bad thing is that all the people I know go to the later service.
My sister always texts me when I’m sleeping at like 9 A.M. lol. I end up getting back to her too late.
So I’m trying to keep my wrists off the table when I type. It’s cumbersome. But it will help me in the long run. I also am trying to bring my finger back to the home keys. Well, that’s it for me. Goodnight.

Today hasn’t been bad. I got up in the middle of the night at 2 A.M. I usually get up at 12 A.M.I did my quiet time and then I hit the PS4 for thirty minutes. Next I hot the computer for some Christian music. Just as I was beginning to study the English exam material, Chad called. lol. We talked for over an hour. As usual, Chad’s body is bothering him. The poor guy is killing himself. To top things off, he is in a bad familial problem. I won’t get into detail but it’s been going on for a while. I pray for him every night.
I won the Writer’s Cramp! I competed with four or five other writers. I honestly did not think I would win. One person composed a fantasy piece I thought was quite good. I read like one short paragraph and I thought my goose was cooked. lol. It did have a Christian element to it. My genre of choice is by far fantasy. I have some Christian fantasy stories but I want to focus on purely epic Christian fantasy. My novel that I wrote is that genre. My third Thrice Prompted piece is full of Christian elements. I’m quite enjoying writing it.
After church the group is going to a cinnamon roll joint. I told Chad and he looked up some reviews on his phone. Either it got all bad reviews or Chad told me just the bad ones. lol. One person said the cinnamon roll he got was dry. Hopefully that was an isolated occurrence. I love cinnamon rolls. It does sound good in this cold weather.
So I roughly estimate my typing accuracy has at least doubled. My speed has gone up too. I think typing is fun. lol.
I’m kind of bummed out a little; TranscribeMe pays $15 an hour and not $20. Still, I’m making money. I hope I do alright. I do plan to do breaks between sections - just enough for a song or two.
Let’s see, what else? Jim is working today. That is odd for a Wednesday. His back is still hurting. Poor guy. He thinks he may need a procedure. There’s no way he’ll get artificial disk replacement like my mom got in Germany. It’s pathetic how we do not have it in the States. It’s a money making scheme.
Back to videogames, Chad showed me an upcoming game called Jump Force. It’s a fighting game mixed with DBZ, Naruto, and One Piece. The gameplay looks atrocious. It’s a 3D layout like DB Raging Blast. I have resolved not to get any more games or systems. I need to focus on my writing and working His will through my writing.
Well, that is for now. Goodbye.

I need to get back to writing. I’ve been slacking. I feel like I’m in a rut again. I have to break through and just do it. I didn’t have the drive to do anniversary reviews. It will all change however. lol.
Church was good. The sermon was titled Milk vs Meat. He emphasized how people who have been Christians for a long time should be eating the deeper things of the Word. Pastor Jimmy taught out of Hebrews chapter 5. In the book, Paul was addressing one of the churches I think. I skimmed over the preceding chapters quickly and also the chapter itself. So I’m not sure. Nevertheless, the message was delivered.
Ricky was a no call, no show this morning. He’s never done that before. I texted him and he said he stayed up really late. He sounded a little distant. I hope he’s okay. He may go to the evening service.
In other news, I called my buddy down the street. He’s training to be a crane operator. It was a short call but I did ask if he wanted to go to church with me one of these days. He responded with a yes but it sounded tentative.
I still need to combine all my chapters into a single file. It’s been a while since I called Laura Leaders. I may try calling again.
I feel like crap now. Lord help me break free. I want to get back on my game already. Got to persevere. I want that joy I used to have with writing.
My mom and I are going to a Mexican Grill called Rubio’s and pick up some food. Their food is healthy and delicious. Jim and my mom like the veggie burrito. It’s actually pretty good. I like the chicken burrito. Jim gets off at 7:15. My mom and I are leaving before he gets home so he can have a good meal when he arrives.
My bro gets six figures from work. He works in computer software.
Well. I’m going to write. Goodbye.

Something funny and weird happened today. There was this intermittent beep which happens when one of the smoke alarms needs a battery change. I put up the tall ladder for Jim to see the highest alarm and check it out. At first we thought it might be the one in the hallway as well. So, I checked the alarm in there and found it was hardwired and had a battery. Then suddenly there were two separate beeps. Then my mom had an epiphany; she thought it might be the carbon monoxide detectors that just plug into a socket. She unplugged them and the beeping ceased. Phew! Then she plugged them back in and there was still no sound. So we don’t know what happened. lol.
Jim is working a six hour shift at Albertson’s. He gets off at 8:30.
I love typing! That’s why I’m so eager to start transcribing. I am still a little slow however at it. I’ll get better though. lol. I pays about five bucks an hour. That means if I do four hours a day I’ll make $20 a day. If I multiply that by seven that would be $140. If I multiply that my four that would equal $560. The transcribeMe representatives say people move up fairly fast. Hopefully, that is true. Now the info that I got this from was from a separate site critiquing and evaluating the company. They did say it is not a get rich quick deal. But the site did say you’ll do well if you are good at being a transcribing or of you enjoy it. My motivation is after the latter. I really think the Lord will help me. It will be cumbersome at first, but that may be with all jobs.
My mom found this dude who claims the world standard monetary unit will fluctuate away from the dollar. This, he claims, will come with the new year. Inadvertently, the value will of the US dollar will be cut in half. However this fear of the dollar losing value is nothing new. But who knows; maybe that day will come.
In other news, a new drug that has apparently cured a case of cancer, has been brought to light. Our wonderful president has ordered that all pharmaceutical companies use the substance. But the mainstream media will try to keep this occurrence from coming to national forefront. Yet it is inevitable.
Me, my mom and Jim watched God’s Not Dead 3 last night. It was a great movie. I recognized one actor who was very good in the movie. And to those who don’t know of the preceding movies, they are Christian films. I think the main protagonist who was in a movie played a role in Malibu Dan. I saw a snippet of the movie on a Pureflix add when I was on YouTube listening to music.
Chad is on the phone so I will bid thee ado.

It’s been another good day. I didn’t go to the gym though. I hit the PS4 for about twenty minutes. Then I did my laundry. Right now Jim and my mom are going to some place concerning Jim’s retirement plan.
I did my two anniversary reviews today - both poems. lol. One of them was a fantasy poem of sorts that told a brief summary of a story. I told the author I thought it could easily be a story.
Chad is on the phone. Goodbye.

Today has been good. I only got three hours of sleep but the coffee did its job. Lol. I’ll be shutting down sooner than usual – maybe around 7:30. I did my two anniversary reviews and wrote for a little under an hour. I’m still trying to be faithful with my writing. It’s been three days or so that I’ve written in a row.
Ann and I texted for a fairly good amount of time. She said her Christmas gathering was small. She got a plethora of nice gifts including $400 in cash! And she still has gifts coming in the mail. I asked if she was off and she said yes. I then made a joke and said I was off too; I have no job. she answered and said “That’s disappointing.” lol. Then she stopped texting me. I’ll try hitting her up in the morning. I would assume she works tomorrow so it will be a brief exchange of words if any at all. Nevertheless, I am talking with her via text for longer periods. I am just trying to draw her out and it looks to be working. I wouldn’t date her in a million years though; she has that snippy, choleric mentality. She is pretty though.
Dan will not be able to take me to church. It looks like I’m home.
My mom will be putting the Norton program on tonight.
Meanwhile, in the news, the US is half-way shut down. It all revolves around the wall that President Trump wants to make. I’m all for it. Lord willing, he will be getting a second term. I also pray for his salvation.
I did not hit the PS4 today. I was and then I changed my mind. lol.
I need to finish the chapter I began in my mom’s doc appointment. I have roughly five pages left.
I’ll try calling Laura Leaders, the woman who helped me before. I called her about a few days ago. I’ll call her again in a few days.
I went to Walgreens to get my meds. Myra was there. I was waiting for my triglyceride problem.
I tried to sweep the leaves in the driveway. The wind made it hard to do that. I did get a good amount of leaves though.
My mom and Jim are watching the news – or at least they were. Jim changed the channel to basketball.
I haven’t gotten any Facebook notification pop-ups. That’s good.
Well, that’s it for now. Goodbye.

Today has been good. I did two anniversary reviews and I wrote for an hour. I need to get back to my daily writing regimen. I have resolved to make all my fantasy to be reflective of Christianity and the Bible. Last night the group prayed over me about this and also for my book to be published and I won’t be afraid to fail at first. Lots of rejection is sure to come as with the vast majority of published authors. First, I must combine my files into one file with all the chapter titles intact.
I don’t think Electio Publishing will publish my novel. I really want to submit to the Christian online magazine Charisma. But I have to put all things into one file. I know it’s a matter of time until my story is published. I’m excited.
Ann and I texted for a short time. It would have been longer had I not failed to get back to her when she said something twenty minutes later.
Today is Christmas. We have done nothing. lol. And I couldn’t be happier. I just want some peace and quiet.
I only have a short time to write. It’s getting close to 7 P.M. Jim worked a seven hour today shift this morning. He was exhausted. He and my mom are watching a TV show now. I think it’s DC Universe. I don’t watch much TV anyway – just cartoons with my mom. lol.
I called Chad but got his voicemail. He may get back to me later.
It’s not bad out now. My phone says it 54 degrees out but it feels not so cold though.
Well, my time is up. Goodbye.
