Soon you will never have to experience any of this ever again. And you can have all the ice cream you want. I love to read what you have written you need to do some more. Tonya
Hey Bill, It’s Yashua I got your happy new year card, thank you for that. Sorry it’s taken me so long to get on here, I know it’s a long time to wait for someone to write. I’ll see how long it takes for them to get this to you and then for you to respond. We’re doing alright out here, my job is going pretty well and the little one is growing fast. She’s talking a lot and so strong it’s crazy, she’ll be 2 at the end of April. I ended up getting a motorcycle to commute with about a week ago and have been having a blast riding it around. Cuts my Drive time in half, I went with a klr650 so I can take it off-road too. Destiny and David seem to be getting to a place where they’re looking for a change in life which is good, they seem to want more out of life then what they’ve been doing which I hope leads to a change for the better. Wills doing good, he’s taking classes to become a realtor. He saw my bike and I think he might get one of his own haha I hope he gets bit by the same bug I did so we can go riding together. Moms coming down here on the 9th to stay with us for a week, she’s never been down here before so it’ll be fun to show her around and hang out with Hannah, hopefully getting AJ to meet up. He hasn’t been open to seeing us yet, I think it might be nerves because we haven’t seen each other in so long but I’m really hoping he decides to join us on one of our outings. Anyways I’ll see if they can get this to you and I hope to hear from you soon.
It ripped out my heart in the best way. The book was written in the first person, which is difficult to do well. Read Fifty Shades of Grey to fully understand how annoying first person narrative can get. The story was well developed and executed. You know a story has taken you to exactly where it intended when the plot twist at the end breaks your heart, has you hiccuping choked sobs, and knowing you will recommend it to everybody. I hope this finds you well and puts a smile on your face. If you are interested in the full list of categories for the reading challenge let me know. I am only using my local Library’s collection for the books I am choosing. Your available selection might be even more scarce than mine... but what is a challenge without adding another layer?
Is it just me, or did your address recently change? Mine did too. We recently moved. I sold my insurance agency and we packed up the family... since I have the time and opportunity I am contemplating switching careers. I will let you know how that goes. Since this address is only temporary until we find a permanent place, I will write you through here. We are waiting for the house to sell, then we might buy again later this year. So, the tiny humans are adjusting to their new schools. The husband is loving his new position. I am hunting for the right career for me... yet again. This time I am thinking of applying for a position as a 911 dispatcher. Of course it will take training but you know me, I am willing to learn. I recently took on a Reading Challenge to get me out of a rut. This challenge lets you pick the books from specific categories... A Classic you’ve been meaning to read: Lord of the Flies... A book of poetry, a play, or an essay collections: Harry Potter and The Cursed Child... A book recommended by a Librarian or Indie Bookseller: We Were Liars... A memoir, biography, or book of creative non-fiction: Orange is the New Black... These are just a few on my list of twelve books to read this year. My rut of reading stories that didn’t require me to think feels over. I am branching out to genres and authors I wouldn’t have previously considered. So far I have finished We Were Liars
Eric, it's great to see you're still blogging. I'm John -- I wrote you a few times about 4-5 years ago. Been catching up on your latest posts and of course I enjoy reading them. I saw you're currently in a big group setting now, yes? 60+ guys all in one big room? I can completely see preferring a 2-man cell to that. I occasionally watch a newish reality show called '60 Days In' on TV. It looks semi-fake at times but those jails are in that configuration -- a ton of guys, all out in the open, etc. It would drive me nuts. I'd constantly think some crazy guy would do something while I'm asleep. Anyway, if you've caught the show, I'm curious what your thoughts are about it. If it looks scripted, real, etc. I saw something about a "birthday beatdown"...which I guess is exactly what it sounds like.
Anyway, take care, hope to see you continue your writing. -- John
