3:22 pm	Sick as a dog Weds night I decided to grill out, thawed a package of chicken drum sticks out, par boiled them extra long to make sure they were cooked, and then grilled them to the point of almost burning them. Natalie and I ate....everything was great. Thursday morning: I wake up and help Natalie off to work, no more than 10 minutes after she leaves, I run to the bathroom and begin puking harder then I have ever puked.... The entire day is nothing but dizzy puking, shitting a yellow bile type substance...which later n the evening turned into a dark green bile.... HORRIBLE. today...... No bile, stomach is much happier. I have not eaten since Weds night....I did et some beef broth down today, which helped out. My voice is completely gone. I hate chicken. (2 Comments |Comment on this)

6:58 pm	Turning a new leaf. Well Looks like i will go for a CNA certification possibly as early as Junw 2, but if they can't put me in that class, the next one is July. I hope for the June class, but the July would also be fine, then I could take the time off to go visit my brother. Wish me luck...... I'm excited to start a new..... D (2 Comments |Comment on this)

12:35 am	Random thoughts Hello everyone, Well here we go again. I've been without a job for the 2nd week now, I hate it. I feel so useless, not contributing or pulling my share. Natalie continues to work and getting more and more hours, while I do nothing. Just doesn't seem right. I'm kinda confused right now, can't clear my head and get a direction going. I can't afford school, and I can't seem to secure a job yet that will pay more then 8 dollars an hour. I am meeting with Michigan works Monday to discuss possible State funded training for a new field of work, or atleast financial assistance for school, But I need to work and make money. I feel im putting alot on the shoulders of my wife which is not right. Confused Everyone says go into Medical, go be a nurse, you have the right attitude for it. WHAT DOES THAT MEAN!!!....... I wish it were as simple as saying go be a nurse.......... I wish I didn't have to worry about the next house payment, or next months bills rolling in. I wish. WTF happened to this Country, seriously..........how did it get this bad......... (2 Comments |Comment on this)

7:40 am	Reason number eleventy billion Why I want to get my house and move the fuck of my parents. At the crack of fucking dawn my dad wakes up(about 4-5am) and cranks the heat up to about 72 degrees so that he can smoke. Our room is small, and the heat is terribly hot in this room. It's Sunday morning, I'm tired, it's 7.40 am...........fuck I wanna sleep...... (3 Comments |Comment on this)

1:06 am	odd experience Hello all, just a quick entry. Xmas is going well, I have enjoyed having my brother and his wife here for the holiday. I have been having alot of fun, seeing family, and just basically screwing around. Soo... Tonight my brother, his wife, my wife and I were in the basement watching robot chicken and playing a game of pool. While sitting at the table next to the pool table, we saw a really funny skit on the movie that made me laugh so hard that i honestly couldnt stop laughing, and I couldnt catch my breath, and before I knew it, I had passed out. Now, I have never passed out like that and it rattled me a little. I awoke 1-2 seconds later on the floor with Daniel and Natalie above me. I feel fine, and I don't think anything is wrong with me, but it was a scare never the less. David (4 Comments |Comment on this)

10:15 pm	House hunting, take 2 So Natalie and I found another house, made an offer, and it was accepted upon inspections, all seemed fine and well, until I discovered a little tip on the septic system from a neighbor. This house had an addition built onto it 10+ years ago, well....they built one of the rooms OVER the septic tank!!!! WTF So we counter offered once again with the stipulation that the bank(it is a bank owned property) would replace the septic system completely so it is no longer under the house, but more importantly, it's up to code. I get a call today, the bank would like me to get a few estimates as to how much this would cost, so this tells me, they are interested in the deal. With the market the way it is, and the town the house is in(very small one street town) They would be foolish not to deal with me, or they can sit on a house that now due to my inspections has been red tagged by the Ottawa county environmental health, and is not capable of being lived in, sold, till the septic is replaced. So they either deal and take my offer and fix it, or sit on the house all winter, pay the winter taxes, and winterize the house again and try to sell it later after putting all the money into the septic later and trying to sell the house again in a small town. On another house note, the water heater is located in a bathroom, which is illegal and must be relocated and re plumbed in, which i have offered to take care of. Ho hum.....heres hoping Santa is watchin and wanting to give us a good present. David (2 Comments |Comment on this)

5:49 pm	Thursday is Important Thursday Natalie and I go to the doctor, it is officially her 5th year of remission! He will tell her results of her most recent blood draw which was taken today. This weekend Natalie and I will be traveling East to her folks house and my parents will follow Saturday. We plan to party and celebrate Natalie, and her beating her cancer!! Please if you have a moment, give her a shout, it would mean to world to me, and her, to let her know she is cared about, and that others are happy that she is here. :) I know I am.

4:31 pm	House hunting once more Well things have been slow around here... brother came to visit for his birthday, which we all enjoyed seeing him again. Natalie has since been hired at North Ottawa Community Hospital, which she has been working close to full-time. I have been working the the same shit-hole factory and see no escape other than my untimely death.....or worse. EVERY....and I mean EVERY damn house we look at is either 1. Priced way to high. 2. Is the biggest load of shit I've seen. 3. Doesn't have the parking I want(3 stall or a pole building) 4. a house that should be fucking condemned..... Breath.....breath....ahhh ok Considering signing with a realty......anyone care to chime in?? let me know what experiences yuo have had?? Natalie and I sold our last house by ourselves, and this would be the first time we would use a realty Co. to help us find a house. Please help me out with some ideas/experiences/. David.

7:35 pm	HIRED!!!! Natalie was called this morning while in Flint visiting her family by the hospital she is interning at. They hired her for the "Casual position" which means she can give them the schedule she can work, wether it be monday, thursday, saturday, sunday or what ever. She unfortunatly doesn't get an insurance with this position, but it starts over 10.50 and is a paying job, and has alot more opportunties in the future if she were to go into a different area in the medical field. And after a few paychecks......the house hunt can now continue. Giddy.... David (2 Comments |Comment on this)
