update kind of..

the cold "wet season" as set upon us and I am hating it, took three whirlpools yesterday just to get my joints to stop hurting, my lower back and my right hip down to my right ankle feel as they are being ripped off my body.

A bit ago, a person who is a "friend of a friend" compared her having to take care of her two baby's as being harder than me having to deal with my brain damage. so ok, I was rather WTF about that to say the least, never mind the fact no one told her that If she didn't have the baby's she would be dead in 30 days, it wasn't a choice for me to have my tumor removed. Least to say this "friend of a friend" is off my thanksgiving dinner list, Christmas list ex, ex, ex there no coming back across the bridge she burned.

Sold my classic boat and the motor...let it go cheap, now hopefully Genny and I can work on the cobia for next year.

today..bla bla

Here is a kick in the groaner...

First I don't know if this is even being displayed on the net, the next thing is I don't know how to set it up for it is....what ever..where ever.

(edited after the fact) yes it looks as if it is being displayed!

well,....I had brain surgery and as a result I have "brain damage", some will say my personality has changed....I don't know if that for the better or worse.

what this is like for me now....

a book has an table of context in the front of it....

I know "some" of the events in my past, they are listed in there...like a memory index, Oh yea I remember that...put when I go to that chapter it either I pull up blanks or it just full of what I would call false memory's, stuff that would not have happen (then at the time) or I wouldn't know someone then that I know now...

ok, well I missed two appointments with my nero, gonna call him to see if I can get a reminder of when the next one is.

(edited after the fact) so I did call my nero, got all excited that my appointment was on the 4th ...sent genny an email saying look it on the 4th of September....on friday...next week... She calls me back and says ok, you forgot about Augest.

So you really wanna drive a truck for a living?

Hey, I understand really, I have been forced in to "retirement" from the ribbon of gray, and I now just kind of hang out at Fiberglassics most of the time.

But I understand better than the average Joe, I know there is no work where most are and the local truck driving school has those commercials on T.V. all the time....

Yes you..
that right...you...could easily be a truck driver!!!!

we can put (your warm body) in a (cold) truck and you can see this great country as you....that right you earn money while you drive.

Tell yea, that old line is B.S. right off the dock, your gonna make money that is true, but if you take ....what money you do make and divide it into the 80 hour PLUS work WEEK your gonna be doing, lets not forget "home" because you will be "gone" 2 to 3 weeks...say it 14 to 21 days and in that time allot can happen.

the money your gonna be making will be less than what you could be making at Walley World or your local phone bank making phone calls forever whatever will make who's ever life more better. the fun part everyone misses and no one going to take you by the hand and explain it is being on the road, living on the road is expensive, your going to pay to eat, shower....your going to pay to do just about everything, and yes your gonna make money, but when they subtract what you com-checked out on the road from the money you made for that "period" you might be lucky to brake even.

take a look above at the gallery of pic's...do you really just want to drive-by America?

serious, after I pulled my first million miles, it just became another trailer...with another load, going to another city where no one could see how a trucker was saving the jobs at the factory he just left. Think, if I just charged a "penny a mile" or a "penny per pound per mile" instead of the cheap freight rates that seem to put the owner operator at the disadvantage, and hell you never really own the truck when the company you sign on with tells you who and what you can have, and where you go.

Giving this a test drive..

Ok, welcome to what ever...this is, on my end it looks rather nice.

If your wondering about all the "boat" pictures I am rather in to "it" rather ....hard, just say I got bit by the bug a while back and I need the little bugger to bite me again.

Old Boats and the people who own them, the ones that restore them, the ones who....enjoy them can be found at a website I like that you can find here at (just click on the word there)---> Fiberglassics and you will get to see a little of what I am talking about.

here is a little video for you to watch about this Fiberbug............that will bite when least expecting it.

     

More later...lets see how this works...
