Love me
George Harrison and Jeff Lynne sing background and play acoustic guitar on this.
So my nephew who knows no boundary's when it comes to finding trouble found some more this week. An ATV accident has resulted in two broken ribs, a jaw broken in two places and a punctured lung. The jaw was fixed by metal plates and screws. Today some kind of treatment on his lung because that is getting worse. WTF.
Weight loss is going well. I maybe at a decent weight by end of summer. At least the gut will be gone.
So this week David Carr died. He was a great journalist for the NY Times and if you did not know him you missed a great journalist. Read his autobiography.
He is some video of him on Charlie Rose. Go to 25 minutes in and watch.

With people in this band how the hell did I never hear of them till today and only because I am using Shazam on my iphone.
Will somebody please punch Kany West in his pouty looking face. He is the poster boy showing money does not make you happy. Douche
So the Grammy for Heavy Metal performance went to Tenacious D. What the fuck is that all about?
They are not a real band.
So gas has gone up 20 to 30 cents a gallon in the last 10 days. What?
Adios

Here I am again
So it has been three months since I made a post and I have been in Florida for a tad over two months.
I will give a little update.
The sale of the house went very smooth. I had one last yard sale before I moved and did very well again. The people who bought the house also bought a bunch of things and they stayed with the house. The cats also got to stay. Someone was moving in the day after I moved out and she wanted the cats.
Everything I owned fit in the Kia or it did not go. The car was totally jammed with stuff. The trip down was uneventful and 13 hours long.
Work is so much less stressful than it was. We all get along great. I think we are going to Hooters after work tomorrow.
Have been to a couple concerts, a Lightning game, the beach and so on.
Have been in my apartment for almost two months. Bought some furniture a Ikea, got some from Mike and Tammy and just got a dining room table at a thrift store. Going to use Howards Restore a Finish to bring the finish back.
My parents finally booted my nephew out of the house. Hope they sell it and move to Florida. They do not need the stress and bullshit anymore.
Life is good. Back to blogging.

It begins
So on Friday 10-30-2014 I will turning in my two week notice. They do not have any idea it is coming.
Frankly it is time to move on from my job and find a new path forward. Have no idea where the path will lead but it will be someplace nice and peaceful.
Looks like the final yard sale will be Saturday the 8th. Blowout pricing for all.
More to follow.

Coming Soon
I expect my closing to be in about two weeks. One final yard sale to go.
I am leaving my job and moving with no job in hand. Time to move on. I have not told them I am leaving.
Had enough of the Ebola freakout?
Low 80's for temps yesterday and freezing temps this weekend.
Watch out if the republicans win next week.
Good thing BP got all of the oil from their spill, except for all the oil on the floor of the Gulf.
Gonna put a few quick Ebay auctions up and get a little cash before I go south.
Need some books? A few more going up tonight.
I think my parents are actually going to put the house up for sale.
Be back later.

ummmmm
Some master musicians playing on this tune.
Seems like the leaves will be turning early this year. I see trees already changing here and that is several weeks early for this area. I'll have to get one trip to the mountains before heading to the beach.
One thing I need to do is find a book store that will buy most of my books. Those will not go at the yard sale.
Wow is it ever getting dark way too early.
When are the troops going into Iraq and Syria? Mission creep coming soon.

Yard sale success
Massively successful yard sale yesterday. $1291.00 worth of merchandise gone to a new home.
One more sale at some point soon and all will be gone.
Having a meeting to talk about selling the house. Florida may be coming very soon.
Having not watched or listened to any news for a few days is liberating.
Who wants a cat? I have a few to give away.
Labor day already. Can I wear white?

Very sad
Very sad about Robin Williams. It's about time we serious about helping people with depression.
Watch this and try not to laugh.

ramblings
I could live in a tiny house, no problem at all.
Lots of rain over the last week. Very odd "summer" weather. 63 yesterday morning
Another U.S. backed genocide continues in Gaza and the majority of Americans continue to believe the propaganda they are being spoon fed by our government and the media. It is time our tax dollars stopped supporting the Zionist movement.
The new car is great. Fun to zip around in a little ride. 28 - 30 miles per gallon.
The CIA spied on a senate committee. Have they spied on you.
