WOW!!! HOLY CRAPPOLA!!!!
Has it been over 2 years since I've posted to this blog?!? gees! well, I am hoping to remedy that, get back to regular blogging as it were... I've had quite a roller coaster couple of years.  I won't go into details, needless to say I lost interest in blogging.  Too much was happening that I just didn't want to share.  but now, things aren't any better then they were, but since I was organizing all my multitudes of passwords etc, and came across this particular info, I decided maybe it's a good time to restart my daily....er....regular....er....um....uh.....blog...  I will try, as I always did before, to post as regularly as I can.  No promises..But I will Try... I am in the midst of doing Content creation on YouTube, and running my own business here in town, and care-taking for my parents more than ever before, so I have very little time for much else. I will publish details of  whats been going on in future blogs, well, not too much detail :P so until next time.....

Merry Christmas! yearly tradition...sort of....too long once again......sigh....

Tis that season once again, gift giving, decorations brought out...braving inclement weather and huge psychotic crowds to get the best deals....yes...its Christmas season.....oh joy......FA-LA-LA-LA-MEH....HO HO HO SIGH.......... ya, I'm really excited....still unemployed, my business isnt doing anything....double sigh.....great time of year so get laid off!!! heh....such is life i guess...so be it....at least i get to sleep in! actually, i had just enough money to go do a bit of Xmas shopping and see my yearly movie...the hobbit: desolation of Smaug..of course...excellent movie, you'll be blown away when you see it! i was! i had an interesting time getting there as well. I had to go the the theater in Pinetop, about 15 or so miles farther than the usual theater i go to......and because the windshield was coated in road grime since it had been snowing and sleeting a bit, i drove right passed it..lol! i finally stopped at  a gas station to wash the windshield and get directions, and realized they didn't have the squeegee things to wash windshield with....um..OK...but i noticed the roof over the gas pumps had water pouring off on side..so i drove under the waterfall and then grabbed a bunch of napkins that were in the car and cleaned off the windshield! talk about ingenuity!!! hehe......anyway got to the theater, had the front row all to myself as usual! and was officially, thoroughly blown away! did a bit of Christmas shopping on the way home.....a good time was had by....well...me!!!! i did some computer work Thursday so i had a pit of cash in my pocket.....and when i got home, i managed to get the Christmas lights up right before it got dark and started snowing....and amazingly enough! they all worked!! i didn't have 4 sections out like last year! miracle of miracle!!! as previously stated..I'm still unemployed....and business is nonexistent......Ive been putting in applications, but not hearing anything..and Ive gotten one call for business in three weeks or so....I'm not in a good cheery Christmas type mood....bah humbug!!! I don't know what the new year will bring..if anything......as Gandalf the gray once said....that remains to be seen......i have been messing about in the shed...i got rid a ton of crap and it doesn't look like Ive made a dent! still more work to do..and i haven't even started on my room and closet! lol!!! "the forest is cold, dark and deep, and i have promises to keep....and miles to go, before i sleep" so I continue to trudge on...ever going forth, laboring slowing towards a mysterious and unknown future.........until next time....
