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.

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.

I stumble to get back up!

To an incredible fruit salad. It was very satisfying with peanut butter cups. This fruit salad has all my favorite fruits grapes, strawberries, orange, apple, pear. I even ate a banana before eating this fruit salad. This fruit salad was right up my alley. It was a masterpiece for fruit salads. It was exactly what my body needed. So, I can slow down and go to bed. Thank you for reading.

No I have never broken any bones. Thank God the father and I intend to keep it that way hopefully. The excruciating pain of breaking bones is something I never want to experience. I just want to sit here and enjoy my fruit salad and all will be good ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ‘.

Balancing act

The way I balance work and home life, is staying on top of my sleep because sleep is very important. Without sleep, I will be groggy and will not perform right at work. Then, to boost up my performance, I drink coffee. It also makes me happy. I also pray to God that he gives me strength to start another day. Thank you for reading.

Deep in thought.

My biggest sacrifice i have made is living. I could have committed suicide. My life is tough, but with God’s love and his guidance. He has shown me a different way to be. Believe me, I have thought of ending everything because being disabled(having one arm to use, walking with a limp is hard). I’m tougher, so I don’t commit suicide, plus I would miss what would become of the cousin who shot me in the head. So the biggest sacrifice I made is living a life that’s hard because of a crap cousin shooting me in the head. No justice, no peace. Plus, I received no justice so I could easily commit suicide, but if I do that. I will never know what is to become of this life. So, here i will remain deep in thought.

This cousin and I used to be close, now he doesn’t even talk to me. I don’t know where he is. It seems he is off the grid sort of. There are a lot of questions I have, but i probably will never get an answer from him because he is a coward. Well, that’s my sacrifice being disabled, but determined to do something with this life. It is hard to live that’s why I sleep a lot. I’m always deep in thoughts. Thank you for reading.

This is an old shirt

This might be the oldest shirt I own. It is from the 1990’s. I sleep in the shirt. I never wear it out. The neck of the shirt is stretched so the only purpose for this shirt is to sleep in it.

I remember wearing this shirt during my Blake Foundation days, where I did janitorial work for them. I washed dishes, cleaned mats, vacuumed the equipment. It was a good job while it lasted. I was 19 to 26ย  years old when I did that job. This shirt has seen a lot of my best days, but now I have washed it too many times and it is holes in it and can’t be worn out. Thank you for reading.

Follow the leader

For many years, I was a follower. My best cousin would have me follow him into starting fires, stealing from stores, and eventually shooting me in the head. So, after the last one. I no longer let just anyone lead me around. If they are up to no good. I abandoned them before I get hurt or hurt someone else.

I would categorize myself as more of a leader after being shot in the head. It is hard to trust just anyone and think that they have myย  best interest in mind. So, I try to keep things kosher and don’t do things thatย  or others. I use abstract thinking, such as “what if,” if I do a certain act and play it out in my head before doing something. That is the way I have to be to not get burned by people who aren’t good for me. People do not usually approach me because most think I am more damaged than I am. So, in a way, that is good. It helps me stay out of trouble. Thank you for reading.

Fruit glorious fruit

These are the three main fruits I buy.
Bananas for there high potassium and their triptiphin properties. I cannot live without bananas, they are relaxing to my system. Apples help me start my day. They give me energy and they are loaded with magnesium, which is good for bones and skin. Pears have a lot of fiber, when you get older like me. You appreciate the fiber in pears. I also like blueberries for their anticancerous properties. I also like pineapple for the bromelin, aiding digestion, wound healing, and reducing inflammation. It also helps with allergies and fights cancer. Well, that is the five fruits I like, but I like more than five. Those are my top five fruits. Thank you for reading.
