ufo

2011-12-09T17:56:00.002-05:00

why is it that most modern day ufo stories do not contain actual video clips with the ability to photograph and/or video with every technology. ie. phones,computers,cameras.etc we have more pictures from old stories befor our current techtnological advances

also, why do we think all ufo sightings have to involve a craft with visable external lights that everyone can see? If the world had that many ufo's actually flying around the airspace then the billions of airtraffic or other radar would pick it up and we would have better proof.j

A quiet life

2010-07-28T13:13:00.001-04:00

So many things are happening in my simple life. Health, work, family and it seem overwhelming at times but I will make it. I will continue to make the most of each day and do my best to make a difference. I don’t know what the future holds but change is good at times. I wish I knew what direction my life was going to take but no matter what, I will be happy and enjoy the life that I have.

Sometimes I wonder

2010-07-13T20:30:00.001-04:00

Why is it that just when you think you are making progress in life or career that someone comes along and takes that away. Someone who says they respect you yet in private betrays you with disrespect. Comments that are not only untrue but selfish and very hurtful. Why can’t people just wake up, greet the new day with hope and make the most of each minute. Instead, some people are angry with every moment and take advantage of others to elevate themselves to a higher level. Life is too short and love is too precious. Moments like today make me truly appreciate and cherish those things that are most important in my life. My three girls, my successful career and Pooky nooky.

Trip to New York

2010-06-19T16:44:00.000-04:00

I went to New York a few weeks ago for some education and training. The trip was very nice and New York was such an incredibly large city. I felt like such a small part of a very large environment. It was nice to get away for a few days and enjoy the big city. Mount Sanai hospital was where the conference was held and was full of some great topics regarding complex coronary and peripheral procedures. As for New York, I would love to visit again but not to live. Just too big and busy. Every other vehicle was a Taxi so many people.

RV bath

2010-05-08T18:44:00.001-04:00

Yesterday when I got home from work I spent three hours on top of my RV cleaning the rubber roof. It get’s so dirty from highway travel but looks great now.

Then, today for about six hours I cleaned the sidewalls and every nook and cranny of the rest of my RV and it looks very nice. I am tired and very sore. My shoulder is killing me and my back is about to explode but noone cares……………….oh well. No matter how rough life gets, I do love my RV lifestyle.

Rain rain rain

2010-05-05T20:47:00.001-04:00

This past weekend we had over six inches of rain and it was great. My RV was in a lake and I almost floated away. I meant to take some pictures but got busy trying to find my paddle. hee hee ha ha ho ho. We need the rain but six inches in a few days………OMG. The playhouse theatre was flooded as well and the stage area was under about three feet of water. We now have water pumps to pump the remaining water off the stage. What a mess. The Pioneer Playhouse starts there plays on June 11th and that should be fun. Check out the website via the link in the previous sentence.

Invisible

2010-05-04T20:39:00.001-04:00

I wake up to find I’m all alone

in a world that sees only itself and no one else

I lay awake in deepest thoughts

will someone care will someone come

My heart is empty with none to give

my soul is dark where passions dim

I yearn for love I yearn to feel

yet no one comes and none will care

I’m lonely now and forever more

They want my time and passions all

yet offer none to me at all

They take and take and take and take

yet when I’m in need they find no time

My pain will end in time I’m sure

how where and when I know not now

But I can give no more not now

I am not seen by those around

what does it matter if I’m around

for I’m invisible and never seen

and when I’m gone they shall not care

it matters none since

I was never here at all.

More updates from my life in Kentucky

The weather is warming up although today it has been in the 60’s. The past few days it was in the 80’s but cold again. Here is my place with a little more green around.

Struggle

2010-04-08T19:32:00.001-04:00

I go through life searching for meaning. Searching for answers. Searching for the one reason that will give me purpose. Those that used to give me that purpose are gone. Those that brought meaning to my world are faded now, so my search continues. Will I find the happiness I once had? Will my heart ever be full with the love of another once again. I wake each morning and hope for the day when my mind will be full of purpose and my heart filled with meaning.

trying to make a difference

2010-03-12T23:55:00.001-05:00

This was a busy yet disappointing week at work. I am trying to hard to focus on the real issues and build confidence among the staff. They have such a strong past and recent history that I just can’t overcome since I had nothing to do with the past. I try so hard to be positive and assure each of them that they should be proud and that we will make it through this but we have to find it in our hearts to put the past behind and move forward. My goals and plans for this cardiac program will not work unless they become a positive source of strength among themselves. All I hear all day every day is how unhappy they are, the are defeated and just don’t want to do anything above and beyond. Very defeatist attitudes and that is frustrating. Am I not doing enough? Am I not focused on the real issues. I’ve only been here for a little under three weeks and feel that I have accomplished a lot from my perspective to make things better in the short term. I am the first one into work to make sure everything is up and running. I am available all day at any time to listen to the many complaints and venting. I am working on 202 things at the same time so that they can be more comfortable with the work environment. Most of them don’t trust each other and that is sad. I have crossed some major hurdles during my short stay so far and I am happy with that but the staff get so caught up with the negative past that they fail to see the benefits of those changes. I don’t sleep much due to my thoughts being with the hospital and how I can make it better. I don’t eat because my mind and body are so consumed with passion for this cath lab. My headaches are a little worse but I don’t complain much about them. I just want to make a positive difference and hope they will appreciate that in the end. I can’t fix it all without their help and we can only work on one thing at a time. So many issues….so little time. Well, enough for now.

Here’s my Kentucky home

2010-02-21T12:53:00.001-05:00

Pioneer Village This is a link to my new Campground. This is a national landmark and one of the only outdoor theatres that still exist anywhere. Once it warms up, the theatre activities will begin and the little town of Pioneer Village will come to life. I am one of just a few people to live right on the complex. Very cool and close to everything in Danville.

Danville is frozen

2010-02-18T19:46:00.001-05:00

Well, the campground I have been living for the past few days has been wonderful but is just a little too far from work. The weather has not been nice and very cold with snow. Saturday I am going to move to a cute little campground just inside of Danville and about 1 minute from the hospital. That will be much better and I will post pictures of both places soon. I’ve only been at work for two days and it’s all going very well. I’m doing what I love to do and the staff are great. I do miss the girls in Augusta but it was time for me to move on.

Jailed by love

2010-02-18T19:40:00.001-05:00

My heart was free and filled with depth

The deepest joy I’ve known so few

My love was true and ever so rare

All at once my world so turned

The laws of love were oh so firm

I fight the battle each rise and set

but in the end my love is my crime

The hurt is real and oh so deep

she left my life with her the key

that could unlock my cell of pain

Though my heart with proven guilt

My sentence be Jailed by love.

-D

Snow in Augusta.

2010-02-12T20:03:00.001-05:00

I have been here in Augusta for a while now and on the day that I need to be on the road and traveling to my next assignment we get 6 inches of snow. What the heck? They haven’t had this much snow in a million years. I love the snow and have missed it but NOOOOOOOOW? Ugh. I already have 5inches and more is expected over night and I will assess the drive tomorrow morning. I don’t look forward to pulling my RV in the snow but I don’t have much of a choice. OK. Life goes on for me….hee hee.

Spoiled in Kentucky

2010-02-07T16:44:00.001-05:00

Well, I am working my last week at MCG childrens hospital cath lab and have been trying to find all of the essential places for when I move into my next assignment in Danville Kentucky. I have found a few pubs, a YMCA, Kroger grocery, and even a laundrymat that has tanning beds as well. Tanning and laundry at the same time? Cool.

Winding down

2010-02-06T16:45:00.000-05:00

It’s nearing the end of my time here in Augusta and I am looking forward to new adventures. Where will I go? Will it be cold? Will it be somewhere tropical? Who knows but I will post updates when I get them.

New RV park

2010-01-16T15:14:00.001-05:00

Well, I needed a change of scenery and decided to move to a much nicer RV park yesterday. When I woke up Friday morning I had no idea I was going to move and after working most of the day, I went back to my old campsite, unplugged, hooked up and moved to my new home. I have neighbors now and it’s much nicer. It’s also much closer to work, shopping and tons of other stuff. I should have done this sooner but I’m here now.

I went to see Avatar 3-D yesterday and IT WAS OUTSTANDING. I didn’t want to go at first but Ginny, a nurse that I work with, highly recommended it and said that she would yell at me if I didn’t go. I went…….and……….well…………….WOW. The movie was long but the special effects and wonderful story line kept me on the edge of my seat throughout the whole time. As for the 3-D………..absolutely stunning. If you think it might be like it was when “we’ were kids, well you are wrong. The glasses are real glasses and the picture quality is more real than you could ever imagine. You are really part of the movie and it’s all around you. In fact…….I think I actually saw myself in the movie at one point. hee hee ha ha .. If you haven’t seen it yet……..SEE IT NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!

MY birthday

2009-12-24T18:53:00.001-05:00

One more day and I will be the big 43. Whatever that means. I don’t really feel old but I sometimes wonder what I have done with my life in the past 43 years. Am I where I want to be? Should I pursue more? I have always had the feeling that I am suppose to do something more and that I am truly here to make a bigger difference than I have but I just can’t figure it out. Who knows. Maybe I am just nuts and need to admit myself into a “crazy house”. Ha ha.

Holidays

2009-12-23T19:10:00.003-05:00

Well, it's Christmas time again and I am so lonely. People that I thought I could trust have become distant and unavailable to talk. So many people say that they are your friend but when it gets down to the "nitty gritty" they only care about themselves and could care less about you. I have worked with many people over the past year and dedicated all of my energy and time to helping improve their quality of life and once I move away from those areas, nothing. What happened? What did I do? Why are people so selfish? My life is about as lonely as it gets and it is getting so hard to find the energy to wake up every morning and be the "strong" person in other peoples lives. I feel as though I give so much to my career and life with almost nothing in return. All I ask for is honesty and loyalty and friendship. True friends are so hard to come by. They will say..."oh we love you"...."oh we are here for you"..........but.........where are they now? OK. Enough for now. I have to vent so I will vent online.

Thanksgiving weekend

Well, I was home Thursday alone and relaxing. Got up and started repairs on my leaky sunroof in my shower. The started to work on a leak under my bathroom sink. Today is Saturday and I am just finishing the repairs. These are the first two issues with my new RV home.

Can’t sleep

2009-11-26T04:40:00.001-05:00

Haven’t been able to sleep tonight. A lot on my mind. It’s thanksgiving and I’m alone once again. Just my usual cornish hen, some potatoes, wine, and a stack of movies to watch. I will probably be doing some RV maintenance as well today since the weather is suppose to be a little nicer than the past few days.

My girls

2009-11-22T12:24:00.001-05:00

The happiest part of my life and the thing I am most proud of are my three girls. They are beautiful and have truly done great with all of the struggles they have had to endure throughout their little lives. I love them dearly.

Friends

2009-11-22T12:21:00.001-05:00

This time of year is so hard for me…..My mom is not here…….the friends I’ve grown up with are gone……the people in my life that I thought I could trust have made themselves unavailable……people that say they are your friends have no time for even an email….it’s OK to be alone but its heartbreaking to be lonely.

Girls surprise

2009-11-17T18:12:00.001-05:00

Well, I am working on a surprise for my girls in Arizona. It will be fun and quite unexpected for them. I am so sneaky and love my girls even if they are growing up too fast and like “boys”. I have told them that “boys'” have germs and cooties and they just won’t listen. All I say and will ever say to the men in my girls lives is…….”I have a gun and a shovel” hee hee

Columbia county fair

2009-11-14T18:18:00.001-05:00

I was going to go to the fair today but decided to stay close to home. The weather was great today. I had a great workout at the gym and took a nice little drive. Now I’m home watching movies and trying to relax my sore shoulder. Ouch.
