Year in Review - Part 1

it time again...Yep my year in review from me. Sorry if this offends you but I am honest on my blog. First Sara and Mindy are still the light of my days. I do not know what I would do without them. Mindy is still cancer free for 18months now. Sara is an honor roll princess and much like me. To me that's good. Kali and King are doing great. Love those kids. Got to help some other family out this year the Jones's. They are dear friends and "Cherry" has a good home. Ohio State football. 24-1. Michigan State...At least it was not the smell from the north. Goodbye to a great coach Tim Marcum. You were a big part of Tampa Bay being arena football fans, and you should be honored and remembered by the Storm for that alone....
Yes it am overweight...I know it...no need to tell me. I am sometimes too honest...sorry if it offended you, if that's not good enough then....
Did not spend enough time at the movies or with my friends and family...that I will try harder in 2014... Go Lightning, Bengals, Reds, Rays, Storm, and first and foremost Buckeyes...

I got no Problem

Freedom of Speech – I have waited long enough before I weigh in on my opinion about Phil’s comments. As a Rev. myself (not too many know) it would be easy to say his comments were inappropriate and be done with it. But wait. Let’s stop here before I get too far ahead. Phil Robertson is a person on a reality show. He does not play a character. He is not an actor. He is from Louisiana in a time where beliefs were different and directed towards that decade of beliefs. Let us get this right. He was interviewed and said a lot of things that many did not agree with. That is his right. He is not an actor. Do I agree with what he said? Does that or should that matter to anyone? Will people stop reading what I post if I do agree? A&E needs to let it go. It’s a reality show based on an older man from old school. If you don’t like it I have the answer. Don’t watch the show. Also to answer the question for those that care, no I do not agree with everything Phil said, but I am going to watch the show. That’s my freedom of choice.

Believe and it Happens

Sometime songs speak to you...this one did to me.
True Believers - Darius Rucker

 .We settled in, and we settled down
In this quiet little seaside town
You were the rock i built my world around
And life won't ever break it

We are one heartbeat in the darkness
We are one lasting answered prayer
We are one unbroken promise
And we are two true believers

It wasn't easy gettin' here today
Sometimes you stumbled, or i lost my way
But every roadblock was a chance to say
Take my hand, i'm here beside you

We fought and made it through the toughest parts
Now every day is one more chance to start
To look around and see that where we are
Is where we were trying to get to

We are one heartbeat in the darkness
We are one lasting answered prayer
We are one unbroken promise
And we are two true believers

We are one before our God and heaven
Oh, we are one when the going gets rough
We are one now and forever
We are one gig, one life, one flame

We are one heartbeat in the darkness
We are one lasting answered prayer
We are one unbroken promise
And we are two true believers
Yeah, we are three true believers
