I'm a wizard, a dummy, a socerer, and a nincompupe.  I'm a smart guy and an idiot. I'm open and secretive.  I'm a liar, a cheat, and a lifesaver.  I'm an enemy and a friend.  I'm a confidant and...

She has returned.  My Mom has returned to my house.  Just in time for Easter.  The yellow Irises are blooming.  For those of you who don't know the story,  I rented a small house after my Mom...

The performer of my serenade has been revealed.  Tuesday morning, just after sunrise, I was leaning on the back gate waiting for Foxy, when it came again.  Just above me and to the left.  I looked...

I got up early this morning,as I will this week and let Foxy out to do her thing in the back yard. Went around front and got the paper, and sat down on the steps to wait.  Then, I heard it,,,a...

The separation is almost complete.  The separation from my former job after eightteen years.  The last check from the severance package is in the bank.  The retirement check is in my savings...

I'm 2 weeks out of transition.  2 weeks in the real world.  It's been an interesting 2 weeks.  I'm amazed at what I can do on my own now.  My trainers told me I would, but I didn't believe...

I am blessed.  As you know, my car has been in the shop.  3 days!  Well, the problem was the fuse box had shorted out.  The shop called me and said they couldn't find a replacement.  They'd...

The car is in the shop again.  A few weeks ago, the left blinkers went on the fritz.  The lights wouldn't turn off or blink.  They even stayed on after I turned the car and lights off.  I had to...

Transition is over.  The culmination of 7 weeks of classroom and on the job training.  I enter the real world Monday.  It's been a long journey.  Full of sorrow, frustration, terror, fear, and...

I crashed again.  The whole week of transition hit me Friday afternoon and I could go no further.  In transition, there are helpers for us.  When we come up on something we can't do or remember...

I finally got it!  My money for unemployment.  I've been waiting since December but it was worth the wait.  Didn't get a check.  In Texas, they send you a debit card.  It's a good amount and...

Wow!  What a day!  First day in transition.  First day on the phones by myself!  It was a fast, fast, fast, 8 hours!  It started off slow and easy.  The calls were simple.  Then they hit! ...

It is over.  The five weeks of training is over.  So much to learn and so little time.  So many  places to go to get information to help people with their problems.  Our training logins and...

I've figured out what's going on with my nose.  It took talking to my landlord to do it. He got the same thing on his vacation in Colorado.  My old nemesis is back.  My allergy to mountain...

It's been a rough week.  I've been trying to turn off the faucet in my nose.  Don't know what's going on.  Only that it runs constantly and goes into my lungs and makes me cough.  It's disrupting...
