Sorry!
Sorry it has been so long since I have blogged. I have been very busy in a two week period at work I have gotten 25 hours of overtime and work 109 hours during this time frame.
I went to Disney World’s Epcot and Magic Kingdom yesterday. My mom and niece Alexus went also. It was very hot and muggy out there yesterday. They got a little heat exhaustion I believe.
We had a good time but my Mom got sick on the way home.
I have a lot of new DVD’s that I will be watching over the next couple of weeks. I will also have a busy schedule. I am hoping it will come down in the middle to end of June. So, just a warning I may not get the website updated for June by the end of June and may just update it for July.
Well, I hope all my friends and family are doing good. Would love to receive E-mail from y’all. Take care for now.
And by the way, I took a couple of pictures on my camera phone the other day and have posted them up on my MOB, so check them up.
Parents
I was supposed to go to Disney World with my niece and parents this weekend. I was looking forward to it. Then my father. He just bugged me to death and I remember he made my vacation not that great. So, I changed my mind. I will go later, I have a ticket that is good for a year and can go whenever I want.
Finally Something New.
Well, I am typing to you with a wounded wing. I injured my left arm at work on Sunday. Nothing too serious just a contusion to my left elbow and left shoulder. My left elbow and left arm are swollen right now. But, they are not as painful as yesterday. I was given two prescriptions by the Emergency Room doctor. But Workers Comp has not allowed one to be filled. That is another subject the Pharmacy. I tell that one later.
Nothing New
Well, nothing new lately. Just humming along right now. Going to try to go to Disney World next Saturday. Not sure which park yet. Take care everyone.
Brighter days ahead and goodbye to some of my past
Well, yesterday I sold a good friend of mine my Ranger. I have had the Ranger with me for longer than I have had Henry. My Ranger was sold yesterday to very good people. I am going to be able to take the money at the end of this month and pay off a bill and a half. My goal of becoming debt free is coming closer and closer. My house buying is coming sooner and sooner like my retirement
I also have been able to rest on these last couple of days off and already looking forward to Monday and Tuesday, my next days off. By the way speaking of Henry. I had to take him to the Vet yesterday. It seems he caught Kennel Cough during his stay at the Vets while I was on Vacation. He is on an antibiotic for the next 14 days. He will fully recover, Thank God!
Doctors!
I went to the doctors today. My blood pressure in my left arm was 150/104 by the nurse. The doctor came in and I was seeing him about a different problem. He checked me for that and then gave me refills on my prescriptions. But, I had to bring the blood pressure up to him. He took it and got a high reading in the left arm then took the right arm and got 132/85. It has been high since I started seeing this doctor for the past couple of years. He stated he did not want to start me on anything unless my readings stay consistently high. I have a complete physical in June 2005. So we will see what happens then. I will be trying to work a lot of overtime the next few months to save for Christmas. But, I wish doctors were better. I have a good couple of specialists (i.e. my allergist and my eye doctor) those are the only 2 I really trust.
Disappointed
Wednesday, April 6, 2005. We left and have arrived home from Disney World. I was disappointed with MGM and the Caribbean Resort. We did not have hot water our entire stay. It was luke warm. I like more hot than cold in my showers. MGM was kind of boring other than the 2 rides we went on it wasn’t worth seeing. The Magic Kingdom on Monday was extremely crowded, but I love the Philamagic show with Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse. That was a great attraction and the first time I had been there. Also on the plus side we had dinner last night at a German restaurant in Epcot’s World Show Case. It was a buffet and excellent. It was not quite as good as the Red Lobster on my birthday, but was good. I would eat there again. By the way we ate at the Lonestar Steakhouse on Sunday night and it was horrible.
Epcot
I went to Epcot today, my first time there. I loved it. I went on the Test track and Mission Space. The hype leading up to the ride on Mission Space was leaving everyone scared including myself. However, once the initial part of the ride was over it was a great ride. I just wished it was longer. The Test Track was much scarier. I posted a lot of pictures on the MOB via my cell. I have been tired all this week. I think it is losing that hour on Sunday. Anyone one else with me?
April 4, 2005
Well, Monday was my birthday. I went to the Magic Kingdom on day 2 of my get-a-way vacation. It was very crowded. I got very embarrassed as my mom and dad took me out to dinner at Reb Lobster. First of all, my dinner was excellent. But, the surprise and embarrassment came as my mom told our waiter, without my knowledge, that it was my birthday so Jamie and the crew came over and sung me Happy Birthday as he served me a piece of cake and ice cream. I turned several shades of red. I was so embarrassed. But the cake was good and so was the ice cream. Overall not a bad day. 36 years old, I getting middle aged. 4 more years and I am 40 and 9 years 9 months I can retire. Scary!!!!
Disney World Here I Come!
Well, as I write this I am waiting for everyone to finish loading up my new 2004 Dodge Durango, so we can head to Orlando on our vacation. We will be staying at the Caribbean Beach Resort from today until Wednesday. The plan today is to finally get there and go to the Animal Kingdom. Until 2P then go check into the resort. Probably get some lunch then back to one of the parks. Probably MGM since they will be open until 10P. I plan on taking a lot of pictures with my digital camera and my cell phone. So check the website for more.
I do miss Henry though I had to put him at the Vet’s to board. I hope he will be ok. Going to call and check on him tomorrow. By the way, I will post an audio blog later, which will contain more information on my new Dodge Durango.
New Website!
I hope everyone got my E-mail about and . Yes, is back. I stopped using Verizon On-Line’s home user website. I got 10mb of storage free but paid an extra $6.95 for 100mb more space. But, I was having a lot of trouble with it. So, I bought my own domain names and moved to hopefully a more reliable web host and a professional web host. I did my homework this time and found that this company has a solid reputation. So the new website can be found at . I am in the process of upgrading some pages in particular (i.e. the guestbook page). The guestbook page is not working properly right now and I am aware of this. I am having to learn a bit of website programming that I have not known before. So, it may be a couple of months before I have it up and running. I am also going to add a couple of other features as soon as I learn how. But, the rest of the site is up and running. So, I hope you will stop by often and enjoy. Also if you try to go to the old website on Verizon I will be loading a redirect page so you won’t have to anything. Please give me feedback via E-mail to let me know how you like it. Thanks.
Hello Everyone from Vaction Land!
Hello everyone. I hope everyone is doing great. I know I am. I have been lazying around on my days off. I will be going to Disney this weekend. The only negative is, it looks like I am going to have to board Henry. My sister and brother have let me down. So, that is going to be an extra expense I did not count on and I don’t know how Henry is going to take to that. So get ready for a lot of mob pictures starting this Sunday.
Vacation Time is Here!!!
Well, it is vacation time. It is also time for me to be sick again. It seems everytime I go on vacation I get sick. I have had a sore throat since Monday. It is somewhat better today but just by a little. Other than that I feel fine. I plan on catching up on some sleep today, tomorrow and Saturday.
Dinner
Well, I want to wish my friend and co-worker Shawn a HAPPY BIRTHDAY! He turned a whooping 31 years old today. We had a little celebration at a local restaurant. All had a good time and fellowship. 2 working days and Vacation time. Other than that a short weekend. Look for changes to my website in the next week or so.
Vacation Looming
Only 4 working days to go before I am on vacation. I cannot wait. I also am planning a couple of online surprises after I go on vacation.
Hope everyone is doing great.
Same Same Old
Just working. Nothing really new going on. I go on vacation at the end of the month and it will be a welcomed day.
Henry is doing great. He goes to the Vet. on the 25th to get his teeth clean. Other than that really nothing new to talk about. Hope everyone is doing great.
Working overtime. Nothing else new.
Television
Well, I just got some bad news today. My favorite TV show Enterprise is being cancel in March. I hate that they are doing this. What are these morons thinking?
Nothing new here!
Well, as the title states nothing new. Just work. I had been sick but have recovered after a trip to the doctor for the right prescriptions.
Taxes
I hate taxes. I know they are necessary to run Government. But, lets tax those making over 250000 more than the middle class. I know someone will say we do. Bologna, there are too many loop holes. Lets go to a flat tax so everyone pays the same no matter if they make $1 or 1 million. Also, I getting tired of cable, satellite, cell phones companies and telephone companies raising their rates with these so called fees and taxes. They aren’t Government Taxes they are ways to collect more money from us.
