If you know me at all you know how much I love and hate at the same time. Some of you know I work with my son and like his father he is very head-strong. Zac got himself into a bit of trouble the day before (something I could have talked him out of if it weren't my day off) and now the both of us got mad. We share so many of the same traits and this was one of those nights. The both of us went home tonight. He was in trouble and I was enraged so we both came home for the same reason... Our new boss is terrified of us. Needless to say, life will be interesting. So what is important? Family and friends!

Another year is behind me now and it was a year of many changes. Even when some of the changes seemed bad they all worked out for the best. Granted I didn't see myself living alone in a motel at 41 but it's okay because I'm happy. My kids are grown up so I am at a changing point of my life. I think for the first time in 22 years I am going to take some time to relax and enjoy life for me. There are two major events that happened this year that I am greatful for. A year ago Cathy packed up her girls and broke my heart. She was in my life long enough to show me that I am still able to love. Sometimes it hurts but you can live beyond the pain and be a better person for it. The second event is my son. Zac has become a good young man and I am proud to be his father. So that was my year in a nut shell. Not a bad start to my forth decade.

When you are raised in a certain way that is the way you travel. I was taught by my mom that everyone is the same; only unique. I am my mothers' son! I have been around the world and at times only in my own backyard but I've never lost what is important or maybe I did. I found people and lost myself. I've given but where is the reward? In the lives of others. I guess that's you. What is the cost? You never know until you dream. I love you little one, take care. Be a. Rascal!
