A Journey Into My Life

Oh Gosh.. I am so "behind" the times. I just got "wind" of all that's going on... lol.

Mary, have whoever you WANT on your "friends" list. None of their business (that's your list).. however, if you listen to anything "Busymidmichmom" says, I'd question your sanity.

Mary.. I like both you and Jenn. I kinda think this is "petty" between you both. I am not taking "sides".. I just hope you can work it out.

I did write more about my thoughts on "Jenn's" blog. So rather then repeat.. check if you want.

Take care Mary.. Personally I think your doing GREAT!

Who's your "Favorite" NASCAR Racer? Mine was "#24", but I think I better change. Johnson doing very "great" now. Think I sticking with him..

Sorry, can't find this cool. All I will say.

My brother owns a "large" construction company. I don't know how far he travels, but he does alot of work in the "Brighton" area (closer to you). He's a "self made man. Three years younger then me, and has every "toy a man could want"... lol. He's good at what he does, that's for sure. If for some reason, this don't work out.. I can ask him. I am certain he knows "who is good, and who is not" (in your area). He is a "residential framing contractor" but works with many "roofers" and such.. Basically.. he'd more likely tell who to "contact"..

Later.. Gary

Promise.. never told Martin (or anyone) to get a "haircut"

Dude, I have always liked you. I've always said "true feelings" (knowing they could be taken good or bad). Martin, this is a time you "really" need to listen to your "doctors advice"! I don't always agree with "docs" before hand, but once they have your test results and all.. it might be good to listen.

We've had our problems.. "so what".. that was "talk" this is life! Right now, I honestly think "YOU NEED" to follow your doctors advice. I ain't stupid Martin.. the pics I see you post show your "declining health". Don't give up.. you are LOVED by many!

Talk to me anytime if you want! If you don't want I won't push. All my info is on my website.

Seems to me your "giving up".. sure hope I am wrong about that!

Can anybody tell me what "Sum" is talking about?

Hey dude, not trying to "Bash" on your blog. I just want to give a little advice. Most of us don't live in "Hawaii". I think alot of us would like to see pics "of it there", things we don't see alot here. I mean.. let us into your life more (not talking porn).. just living. I know personally (I travel alot)... and people like to see the places I been...

Laterz... gary

Had a falling out with my "grandfather".. My grandpa was a "very strong, and opinionated man". I loved him deeply, and I know he did me too...

I was 19 I think.. and I couldn't take the pressure. I had alot of pressure from Grandpa, to be what he wanted to me. I went to "Electronics (trade school)" because he wanted that for me. I was 19.. Straight A student, but the biggest "Pot head" there was. I was stoned everyday in class, and everyone cheated off me. I knew the biggest dealers in the state (no lie). I didn't want electronics.. But I didn't know what I wanted.. something with the "skills" I knew I had. The ones I liked..

Came down too.. he pushed me "Too Much".. I rebelled. I said some bad things to him, and he was super angry at me. But I still loved him, he loved me. We weren't on the same page.

I lived my life my own way. I can just about promise I have had bigger "ups and downs" then anyone here. But I went my own way..

Grandpa and I didn't talk for a decade.. maybe two. But I loved him, and thought about him constant. I guess we was both "too bull" headed to work it out. He wanted the best for me.. I hated control... To this day, not sure who was right totally.. All I know was it was alot of lost years..

Me and my wife of 13 years started having problems. I had to move into my dad's house. She began seeing a guy across the street, and I couldn't take it.

So I moved in with dad. My grandma had a stroke.. my grandpa moved into dad's too. His wife was having "issues" I think.. and she went to stay with someone awhile.

So we visited grandma.. Me, dad, and my grandpa. Like all of us together.. when we ALL hard problems being together for so many years. Grandma was basically "braindead" (Grandpa and I felt). Other relatives seemed to think she could hear, but not respond. We don't know.

I was pretty much flipped out about losing my family. My wife of 13 years.. was losing my kids.. my grandparents.. I wasn't in a good emotional time.

Grandma died. One day her blood pressure suddenly went up high.. and she died. Not sure what caused it.. but maybe she could "hear" I don't know. She loved Grandpa.. and I know was all hard for her. I perfer to think she was "braindead".. because to be alive (with no way to communicate) would be bad.

Grandpa started to change to me. He was always strong (now super weak). It was just me and him in my dad's house, but we didn't communicate well.

One day (and this is what you all need to hear).. Grandpa, Dad and I went out to a restaraunt. We had a nice meal.. and we talked. Grandpa asked me questions, I responded.. he listened to me, I listened to me. At the end.. the "problems we had" were like over.

He died in the morning.. after we worked it out!

So.. the reason I responded to this... You never know what will come about later.. Work with your family.

I can say... 99% of my family ties good. We all love eachother, but don't always agree. You gotta do that... Work it..

I'm too scared to play "lotto" now. I saw this thing CNN. They say the chances of getting "struck by lightning" are greater then winning the lotto. I ain't risking that... my luck, I'll win the lotto and be "lightning struck" before I can cash it..

Mary.. if it works for you, I say "Great",, I know it does for some. Luv ya, do what you think is "best", but be cautious also

Won't go into this "deep" here... but if you "listen" to my blogs, you'll see why I make an "Occasional" blog about "Busymidmich mom" (We are still married, but she won't divorce me). I don't hate her, but I know she still does what she can to #### me over... She always has. I'll constantly tell "truth", and ask for information to get this going. I don't think she has EVER denied a thing I said (Because all true), but I sure challenge her to try... She won't.... Debbie (BusyMichmom) hurts my children... Roxann's and our lives.. so I have absolute no problem saying anything about her. If she wants it over... lets do this divorce!

Take care, Gary

Gonna be a "Dark Knight here". The reason, both my other kids (Derek and Michelle) have "Autism". Now I watched the how things went. The doctors, schools, and everyone and their brother wanted them on meds. I did for awhile (didn't want too), and can say for a FACT I felt it was not GOOD, it hurt them more. So I began a process of getting them off.. Kinda hard to fight schools and social workers, but I did. TODAY.. both Derek and Michell e are the nicest and kindest kids there are. They needed "understanding" not DRUGS.. and so do YOU! I luv ya Mary, but I do not feel "drugs" are what you need! There may be a "Small" part of society it helps, but not most. Not you!

LUV, Gary

Story here!! (I have no lack of stories, serious).

Anyway, I was "18" finally legal to buy a lottery ticket. Well, I bought one and patiently awaited the day they "read" the numbers on TV. If you got all 6 numbers, you got millions. If you got 5 numbers, you'd get a grand or two. If you got 4, you got "sumptin"..

So here I was, a young kid (18) watching the TV. Awaiting the 6 numbers to to be shown.

Number 1: ... was "42" (No I don't remember the exact numbers.. but this was how it went)... I had "42"!!!!

So I am getting excited..

Number 2: was 54.. I had 54.. My heart starts beating faster.. 2 outta 6 I had

Number 3: was 9.. I looked on my ticket, I had nine.. My heart at this point was "flipping out".. I had the first 3 numbers on the lotto, to be a millionare..

Number 4: Was 12,, I had number 12,, Now I was certain I was gonna be rich.. God did me right, and I was gonna spend this all on my friends. I had 4 of 6 numbers in the Michigan Lotto... My heart was racing.. it was like crazy...

Number 5: Number 5 was 10, I had 60... ut, oh.. that sucks

Number 6: Number 6 was 43, I had 41... ut oh.. that sucks.. ironic, made my heart speed faster.. grrr.. lol

Ok.. I got the PISS as prize! I had 4 numbers out of 6. I had the forst 4 drawn. I won $43 US dollars. I quit playing lotto after that. That was 20 years ago. I am certain I never played in Michigan again. I know I played once in Florida after that. Once in a great while, I will get a "scratch off" ticket, but honestly I don't gamble now.

Fluccking Lotto,, lol

I voted "Obama". But I never doubted "McCains" morals. I think he is a decent guy, but maybe "out of touch" with today's society. Out of touch with the "real working" people. I'm just glad we had one election, where I didn't "hate" either candidate. I just felt "Obama" best. Take care sweetie, gary
