Some things never change

Dinner was very nice with a salad, tamales, and Spanish rice dish, that definitely did not disappoint. It was delicious. It was the perfect amount of food so after eating the food. I was not too stuffed.

Life before the internet was mainly going outside and riding my bike, of course before being shot in the head. I would also talk with friends before the injury.

Life before the internet, after my injury, all I remember is always going to sleep or laying down. It was a lonely experience. I was so tired because of this pill I took called tegretol for seizures. I couldn’t even talk right because of this pill. I lost many girlfriends because I could not enunciate my words.

Thank heavens, I don’t have seizures anymore because this pill really made my life a tiring experience. I used to take it three times a day and the second pill would knock me out completely. Where ever I was, I would have to lay down. It was that bad. Like I said, thank God that he had mercy on me and healed me from seizures. Well, the funny thing is that when the internet was invented, I was still on tegretol so I still wanted to sleep a lot, but I did homework from college when I was awake. Or, I would attend classes also. I drank coffee to stay awake, or else I would go to sleep. Thank heavens, we didn’t have smart phones because I would always want to be on them and scroll through Facebook, Instagram, X, Blue sky, YouTube. Maybe, this would put me to sleep. So maybe it would have been a good thing. Thank you for reading.

Everyone is good at something

I am good at eating salads. I make and eat salads, everyday.They are healthy, light, plus diabetes runs in my family on both sides. So that is why I eat a lot of salads. I don’t want diabetes.

Sometimes, I splurge and get a pizza or a hamburger, but then I make my way back to a salad because. I have to have a little bad with the good. It is a balancing act. For whatever I put into my body that is bad. I need to put something good in my body and that is the salad. Plus, I don’t want to be over weight because with my limp. I would be more prone to falls. So, it is better I am thin. My mom is always trying to get me to eat more protein, but eating salads is way better. So I eat salads with some bad things along the way, but most of it is good for me. Thank you for reading.

The tide of change

I can say i had it all eating these salads because they were good.  But in reality, I always have to come back to reality and think there is much work that needs to be in place to having it all. So, even though someone says they have it all, there is always room for improvement. I think people can be content with their lives, but to have it all is a little out of reach. Everyone has problems, even the richest person in the world has problems. It is that they can throw money at the problems and make them go away before they become a real problem. Take the American dream, a home, money, friends, elites, well you have to be asleep for that, or maybe some parts of it are achievable, but not all.

It is true that one person’s level of having it all differs from another person’s of having it all. In that sense, it is achievable because it is being happy with what you have achieved and being confident that you can achieve more success. Being grateful for all you have helps in the long run. You never know, you maybe setting yourself up for having it all. Thank you for reading.

I almost talked to the cousin that shot me in the head tonight.

I didn’t have the gumption to talk to him tonight. It was my nephew’s birthday party. I didn’t want to ruin the day today, by being pissed off at him for what he did to me. I know, it happened many years ago, but I still live with the effects of that night. Maybe some other time I can talk to him, when I am in a better place to deal with the pain of that night. Right now, I am too disabled (I walk with a gimp, my left arm doesn’t work right). Everyone heals at there own pace. Mine is not now.

My nephew Nick and I took a picture. My niece Nari. Carrot cake and white frosting cupcakes for dessert. A picture of my mom. The last picture is of my older sister. Thank you for reading.

Salad pics

I hold dear to me this salad pasta dish. Since, I am Italian it is good stuff all around. The salad and the pasta with chips makes it a tasty treat.

I also hold my shakers dear.

My drum set.

My drum sticks.

My note book and my cell phones.

I hold all these things dear to me. Thank you for reading.

Collections of a lot of things

Salads are dynamite. I have a collection of salad pictures on my phone. One may look more enticing than another, but they are all yummy. At least, I think so.
Here is another picture of a great salad that my sister and I ate it was delicious. The thing about salads is they don’t get me too full. If I want to feel really fulfilled, just drink a cup of water and eat a banana, and I am content. Salad pictures are always useful because I can always share them, and they look great in my blog. Thank you for reading.

The good and the bad

We ate a delicious salad and an In and out burger. The good with the bad. It is all about moderation. One legacy I want to leave behind is eating salads is good for you and you will probably live longer, eating salads because lettuce cleans you out. So, it is a win win situation. The burger will probably be cleaned out of my system. Plus, drinking water will get it out faster. Plus, the protein in the burger will probably be good to build muscle. So the salad is light on your system and the burger is a little heavy, but with the water and the lettuce will help it leave my system rapidly.

I also want to leave a legacy of music, playing the shaker, singing and writing lyrics. I maybe older but I am not dead. So, playing music and eating good salads is the way I live my life. I practice music every day so I can memorize my lyrics and say them without hesitation. Thank you for reading.

Dinner was good!!

A salad with a biscuit, and mashed potatoes. What more can you ask for. It was very good. It was not too filling either. It was the perfect amount of food, so I was not too stuffed.

Well, cold weather, I from Southern Arizona, so I have never dealt with real cold weather, like they have in Chicago or New York or Canada. Don’t mind me, it can get cold here, just not to the level of a place up north, such as Colorado. Denver gets cold. It snows there. It hardly ever snows here. They call us desert rats because we live in the Sonoran desert, which deserts get pretty hot, especially in the summer time.

I don’t mind cold weather, unless it is raining, hailing, snowing, and the wind is blowing. Then, it is too cold and hopefully I can stay inside and drink some coffee or hot cocoa. Or, maybe even eat soup.

Something weird about Doordash that I have noticed. When it is really cold outside, people will order ice cream. That is weird. I don’t know what that is, but maybe they are craving something sweet and cold to make them more cold. I don’t get it, but as long as they pay me to deliver it. I will deliver whatever they want. Thank you for reading.
