I have set it up so that whenever something new is posted, I am notified via email...but I still check the site every day to see if anything new has arrived. Last night, a funny thing happened. There wasn't anything new, but your last blog had been transcribed and the first line that leapt out of the text began with LAR and I hadn't heard the "in yer window" for a very, very, very long time...and it made me laugh. I was so sure that the transcriber must have added it...getting that line from a phone call...but no, when I looked back, there it was plain as day in your original post. I just hadn't seen it. For some reason, I missed it entirely....how, I don't know.
Maybe I wasn't meant to see it until last night.
The house is quiet for the moment...I have it to myself, along with one rather bored Australian shepherd and seven cats (which is about as alone as alone gets around here). I encourage my husband to go out and be with his friends (who are not necessarily mine) but it isn't often that he actually does it. It is a rare thing for me to have the house to myself so I enjoy it whenever the opportunity presents itself.
I do plan on going out in a bit...shopping. Groceries and whatever. I plan on doing a bit of wandering and browsing. Tomorrow is Memorial Day and although we have no big plans, I thought I would do something a little extra special for dinner...steaks on the grill, salad, potatoes...and maybe a batch of home made ice cream to round it off. There are also a few things that I need for the house. I've been going through some bizarre cleaning phase...one room at a time. You'd be amazed at how toxic a house can become with an infestation of felines. Or maybe you wouldn't.
There's a lot we have to catch up on and in time we may. I have to take it in small doses, I think. Twenty three years is a long time...and a lot has happened in that time. There's no real place to begin and jumping in to the middle of it is daunting.
I do think of you and without animosity...for the most part...lol! Occasionally there are regrets, but what is a life lived if you haven't a single regret? You came into my life for a purpose...not the one I would have chosen, but it set me on the path I am now and I'm pretty happy with where I am and who I am...so I can't bitch. Although I sometimes do...
You need to write more frequently though...try once a week. You always did suck at discipline... :)
Marcus, I was impressed with your realization of rejection. As a child rejection is very critical especially if it comes from a parent. Unfortunately, as an adult rejection will follow us based on our lifestyle, action, expectations, or circumstances. However, I admired the fact that you realize that you put yourself in the position for someone to be able to reject and dictate your life. Keep in mind, that is is temporary control that they have over you and your life. At the end of the day, GOD is control and will dictate our destiny not man. Take care.

Hi, Joe! I had asked Faith about you and she pointed me to this website. My family and I have never stopped praying or thinking about you. It's always nice to hear about how God is working in friends' lives. Please know that the Rainey family loves you and is praying for you. God bless you!
How can I help to get the word out to the public about this? I want to bring my lifer home. He is on a 7 to life and has been down 34 years it is time. I think that only public out cry and lot of it will accomplish this and the more the better. Most people I educate about the lifer population would be supportive of this proposal
