Well, Hello there.

It's been a year and a half since my last post.
Lots has happened.

April of last year found me bounced out of the Blue Gin Project. While I didn't really care for the music, I also didn't like the way they handled it. As it turns out, By later in the year, Denny Vlahos was bounced out. Well, since then, I was also asked back to play in the Muddy River Project, which I entertained for a couple of weeks but then bowed out gracefully. 

 

In January, I chose to drop my Jeep back to Peoples bank, and then flipped the loan over to my debts I can't pay back and... Vousla... I'm in a better place for 6 months. And since then, I Borrowed 2000 to pay off the little payments, to save money. 

 

Gina (Heather's sister) just left. 
Gina was here to clean up Heather's books and such.
Heather killed herself on July 29th. After taking 4 complete bottles of pills mixed with a bottle of wine, She hung herself in the garage. I came home at about 2:30 pm, looked in her bedroom, the basement, the back yard and then found her hanging in the garage. I immediately called 911.

At about 7:45 pm, the cops left, with the coroner leaving with Heather's body before. The mental health lady stayed with me until after 8 pm. I went straight to bed.

Gina was here, sorting through heather's stuff. I now know what stuff to toss, and the rest will be out of the house in 2 weeks time.

 

Tomorrow, a dumpster will be here to unload the garage  and bedroom stuff. It's been 3 weeks.
I miss her, and so does Baby Girl.

It's been a while

6 months at least.

Phone is dying and I've got no way to make money right now.  It won't be until Monday until a new phone shows up.  This is early Thursday morning... 2nd full day phoneless. Gonna be a long time down

June 9th

I  wished Michael a happy 32nd birthday yesterday.  He came back "thank you". That'll be it for the next year.

Heather's car is now in for repair on her brakes.  Still running like a beast at 162000 miles.

Gotta get my  van transmission looked at soon.  Maybe the same guy.

reviewing queen Elizabeth II

Born in 1926. She's 96. 

I don't think her son will become king. After her grandson's abdication to the US,  her older grandson's seems intent on being king. But then who knows?

In a few short years we'll find out...

Memorial Day weekend

It's been almost one month.

I've been working regularly and not jamming with the Silverback guys. My cymbals and one throne are at Mike's house. But Mike hasn't been able to play due to his stomach pain. So, we wait.

I didn't go to Nashville Nights last night. Didn't go last week end either.  Haven't seen Dawn in about a month. 

Heather's broken up with Bob and seeing multiple different guys. I should do the same,  but can't seem to get anything set up. Not really down about that though.  

The past month has been overshadowed by amber vs Johnny Depp trial, which is now in to their 2nd day of deliberations.

Who even knows?

I was in 8th grade,  getting ready to be the last class to go to 9th grade from the junior high school.  Tomorrow marks the final time for a school picnic at the junior high.  

It also was the last time 4 people lived at Kent State. By the time I got home from school,  Dorothy Fuldeim was on TV blasting the ohio national guard for shooting those kids.

It was the final day of freedom for our 8th grade class
