Hey guys long time no see, been busy with life.

I was happily married with a house, dog and everything else good then Life kinda came up and kicked me in the ass, then pissed on my head, then pushed me down the stairs.

For those who don’t know, my wife came back from the desert and on our one year anniversary of all days , told me she wanted a divorce. She wanted to take the coward’s way out, so I decided to cut my ties with her and move on. No point in hold on to nothing. So that was October 11 and the divorce was finalized 12/17/09. So now I had to pick up everything leave my house, garage and everything else that was mine and move in with some family for a few months.

Then about three weeks ago I had to burry my Dad. He has been in a coma for the past nine years and God called him up on Feb third, it’s hard enough to deal with one of those and I had to do both alone. Yhea I know I have family and friends that are there But I dint have my best friend.

In between then and now I have a bunch of small crap that just kept getting in the way, a few speeding tickets, trying to live up to expectations on the new job, going through my Dads stuff and just pouring too much money into my damn truck. But this isn’t a feel bad for me thread. I have nothing to feel bad about!

I have an awesome new job, when I mean awesome I mean TOTALLY SUPER AWESOME new job! I have to pinch myself every day so I realize how good I got it. I also have an interview for a second job here coming up, which is also awesome because it one step close to get out of this stupid debt.

I will be moving out here in three weeks down to Richfield to start a new life down there (plus closer to work). Since June I have lost 30 more lbs and I am down to 228lbs (my goal is 200lbs) I’ve got great friends and an awesome family (even though there is only 4 of us) and of course I still have the LSC!

So I ‘m still around, just busy with life. I will be going to Florida here in three weeks for a small road trip to just give my mind some gelling out time. No real specific plan other than watching the space shuttle launch, just going to enjoy the drive!
 
Damn, that sucks! It's good to see you here again, just not under these circumstances. I was wondering where you dissapeared to. I was just reading the "where the fu*k did everyone go?" thread earlier. Glad to hear things are turning around for ya. That's an awful lot to go through in such a short amount of time. Florida kicks a$$, enjoy.
 
glad to hear things are starting to turn around for you. and to see you back here. so whats your new job?
 
Can i get a "If it don't kill me it will make me stronger" ? Keep on man. And always see tomorrow. Nice to see others that see the light at the end of the tunnel.
 
Well I have been telling people in the last 10 years I have grown 6 months and in the last 6 months I have grown 10 years. Deffinetly a stronger person now, its not easy to put the brakes on life and point it in a whole new direction.

Now my goal is to work hard at my job so it can take me far, to meet the basic requirements for joing the gaurd so I can go back to school and eventually work in the space program...no more family, house or anything, some one told me to aim high so I picked the moon!

"The sky is the limit, so why are there footprints on the moon?"
