     I think that maybe this new added med might just be doing something. My VA shrink added Wellbutrin hoping that it might help with my lack of energy. May be it is helping. I don't really feel like I am any more ambitious, but I don't feel like I just don't have any energy to do anything.

     I got news the other day that one of my old bosses is not doing well at all. This is a guy who mortgaged everything they had to start an auto parts store back in the late 70's. I was their first employee that was not a family member. They kind of adopted me. I worked for them off and on for many years and always stayed close. He even payed for my flight back from Oregon once to come back to work for him. He is a very good man. Always up and always ready to help. I was even in his oldest sons first wedding. He appartently had a 6 way bypass a couple of years ago then got COPD and Asthma. Now he has pneumonia and they have him on a vent. I guess they are about to start trying to ween him off of the vent. If he can then he will probably be OK. If not then they will probably just unhook it. He does not want to have to be hooked up to the vent. I think that people should have the right to choose. Hopefully I will know something more in the next couple of days.

     I got a call this week from a cousin I have not seen for over 30 years. We have e-mailed a few time lately. But it sure was good to talk to her again. We used to spend lots of time together as kids. Her family lived on a farm just across the street from another uncle and his farm. They all farmed together and milked lots of cows. I used to spend lots of time there on summer breaks from school. We had lots of fun and I really enjoyed my time on my uncles farm. She sounded really good. She now lives in Arkansas.  Just a reall hillbilly from Arkansas's Ozark Mountains !! I think that she would be the first to agree with that.  LOL 

     Stopped watching and reading all the things about Conspiraty Theories. Not much I can do about it anyhow. I really do think that there are way to many unanswered, or poorly answered questions about a lot of things the government has had their hands into.

Have you figured out my last avatar yet. Yep  A picture of Jesse Ventura. I like almost all of his ideas about things. I really think that he would be a very good president. If they did not "take him out" right away. He has some very open minded opinions and does not let people sway him in his beliefes. Although he does admit that if he sees something he did not know, he might change his opinion. At least he will admit to that.

     I hope all my friends here on DS have a very good, happy, safe and as pain free a day as they can.
