Busy, Busy, Busy

I have been real busy, trying to get things fixed around our house. I am tking sometime for myself for right a little while. I have a To - Do - List that seems to grow faster than I can get things done. I have things that I have had to put on hold - I would love to be able to get them done but, the things that need to be done around the house are more important so that everyone can be comfortable.
We have a new addition to the house, a Grandson. Poppy's little man. Poppy has a lot of toys to make.
It has been real crazy around hear. The grandson's mother, who is 18, has been nothing but a pain. She doesn't listen to the advice given by the already parents in the house or the doctors, but listens to everyone else and tells us that we don't know shit. I got in a scrap with our grandson's father, because I was defending the mother and our household. To make a long story short. The father is in jail and has a judicial restraining order against him. I have some things I need to do plus, I can not think of anything else to write about. I know I will later and maybe will have som photos of the tings I've made or have done. Until then, God Bless and Have a Safe Day!

SORRY

Was just told that I don't post much on my blog. Sorry, I don't. I just haven't had much to say. Well at least what I think isn't worth writing about. I had to go to the Diabetic Center, today, so that they can try and figure out why I have been having extremely low blood-sugars. Wanted to go for a ride on Suzie but, never got the chance ( I really do not like riding by myself). I spent the rest of my day reading what little e-mails I had, played a computer game and grilled some hot dawgs. Spent time sitting next to Shortie on the coach. It is suppose to rain for the next four days. Maybe, in between the running around, I might whittle some letter openers and something I have been wanting to whittle. Well hopefully I will have more to write about and maybe it won't take me as long to post. Hope everyone has a great week.

Shortie Riding Suzie

Well, in between the times it rainned today, Shortie took Suzie out for another ride. This time she rode around the block. Right now, Shortie is making jokes while I am blogging about her riding. Things like "The crazy woman took my keys and rode off with my bike". Here are the pics I took of her riding Suzie.

Well Another Day

Well it's another day and I am alive. I had a test done yesterday on my heart. I was told by Shortie that the Doctor said everything is okay. A big relief now our upcoming cruise won't have to be canceled. If things were not good with my heart, Shortie would cancel the cruise because of me.

Today it has been cold and rainy. I feel the dampness in my bones. My sugars dropped earlier today and I thought I was losing my mind. I hate when they drop. I get so frustrated. I am tired of being a diabetic. No matter how much I try to control my sugars they seem to control me. This is something I do not like and will not have. I WILL NOT BE CONTROLLED!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great Day

Well today was a great day. Went for a few rides to enjoy the warm weather. I even let Shortie try to ride Suzie. She did an awesome job riding. Shortie got Suzie up to second gear. After a few more times in the alley, she might be able to take Suzie out on the street. I didn't have my camera, so I don't have a photo of Shortie riding Suzie, maybe next time. It's going to be raining for the next two or three days, everyone will have to wait. I am very proud of Shortie, she overcame her fear of riding Suzie by herself.

Just Another Day

Well just another day. Not warm enough to go out for a ride. It's 42 but it feel colder. What a drag! Wish it was warmer outside, where we would rather be. Need the warmth and fresh air. Having a hard time think of things to do. Sitting here watching the Weather Channel and working on my blog site. Can't even think of anything to create. As you can tell even without the snow I am still suffering from cabin-fever. Thought I would work on the inside of the garage to fix it up into a work shop. But this cold makes it hard to concentrate on what needs to be done out there. Hope everyone else is doing better than I am, right now. Have a great day and God Bless!!!!

Bored

Well nothing to do today. It is rainning and will be intop Tuesday. Can't go out and ride. Rain is good but it does make it hard to doing anything outside and have fun. I really can't think of anything to blog about at this point in time but, maybe later. Hope that everyone who reads my blog has a great day and God Bless!!!!!

Coming Or Going

Whoever is reading this, I am warning you that it may not make sense because the thoughts in my head are bouncing around so much I can't concentrate on one thing. First thought is why am I here. I have no freaking clue. Would the world be better if I were never born or if I were dead and buried. Would my son be better off if I died. Who the hell knows!
I don't know whether I am coming or going or where I stand, anymore.
I've been fighting with Social Security. They think I am not disabled. Because of this, I am strating to think the saying "By The People, For The People" is some bullshit someone wrote on a peice of paper then someone else wiped their ass with it. Why does our government make it so hard for someone to survive?
Would it be better for my friends if I were just to leave so that their finacial situation be better for them?
I don't have any answers and I don't think anyone does.
My mind is a mess and it is not getting any better. No matter how much medicine I take or how much therapy I go to, nothing is helping.
I FEEL ALL ALONE WITH NO ONE TO TURN TO FOR HELP!!!!!!!

Our New Friends From the Cruise

Here are our new friends from the cruiuse. Pam and Ralph from New York City, Francis our server at dinner, and many more people that took care of our room and so forth.

Sailed Away!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Where to start. Well Shortie and I went on a 7 day Carnival Cruise to Cozamel, Mexicao; Belize, Central America; Costa Maya, Mexico; and Nassua, Bahamas. It was a blast, did not have to worry about much, just having fun. We didn't take the kids, we needed a vacation from everything. We relaxed, laid out in the sun, got burnt, ate great food, and shopped. Here are some of the pictures we took.

The Itch

If you are a biker or even one who likes to be on the back, you will know about the "ITCH". Well winter is almost over and the weather should be getting warmer. I have that "ITCH"!!!!! I so much want to get out and ride. We had a couple of warm days here, in Anderson, Indiana, and I spent the time getting Suzie ready to ride and then the temperatures dropped back to the lower 30's. I crave to be out on the open road with Shortie either riding, on the back or beside me on her scooter "Petunia". I crave the sound of that open road, the roar of Suzie's engine and, the feel of the wind across my face. I crave to see the countryside. I wish Spring was already here!!!!! I am anxious to get out. I want to soar where Eagles soar.

Latest from the Shop

Here are my latest finished projects I have made for Christmas presentrs for my family. The nightstand I built for Shortie, along with the shelf, the stand is my first peice of furniture I have made. The letter openers I carved and woodburned for my Grandmother, Sister and Brother-in-law.

I am hoping to make more nightstands for the family as soon as I can find more wood. I am planning on making more letter openers and listing them on our etsy store.
