I've been in my own boat sitting out in this water looking at this view. Awesome!-Sandee. This is a Tip of The Hat to Sandee, my Co-Author and blog wizard.

The Blogger's Prayer

Lord help me to learn to spell without spellcheck, manage to visit all that visit me, and post regularly - all in 5 minutes a day, so that I can clean house and take care of my family. Help me to not look at every occurrence in my life as a blog post, and to quit taking pictures of weird things to share as well. Please Lord, help me to stop talking about my blog friends as though they are next door neighbors or someone I have known all of my life. And help me dear Lord, to think of something witty and wise to post tomorrow.

Thank you sandee.


what is a Birthday without a Birthday cake?? Sandee was so kind to provide the cake today I hope every one enjoyed a piece of it with me.

My Birthday

Today I celebrate the fact that I turn a grateful 58 years young. This being said, it has been a struggle to make it this far given all the near disasters that I lived through. When I was younger I did foolish things, any one of the could have lead to my death. Then there were the major health scares that I have had. Then there were the numerous drinking binges and yes some drug use when I was in my early 20s. I have finally managed to put the drinking behind me ever since 17 Dec 1990.

The seizures have not been fun. Nor have the numerous suicide attempts. Gratefully I have survived all that nonsense. I will most likely be in some form of therapy the rest of my life, so be it. I do know that no matter how bad I think I have it, there are others that have it a lot worse off that I do. I'm grateful for all the creature comforts that Celestine and I have. I never for one minute take them for granted.

I'm grateful for the friends and family that I have as well as all my cyber friends. All in all it has been a great ride and I look forward to the future. Especially March 1 2010. Celestine and I will be married 30 years.
