That’s right. Today is another work day. i will continue guarding the warehouse tonight. i love my job. It is such a good job to have. i am considering taking a college class in the spring. i think my schedule can accommodate that. i just wanted to write, because i have been wanting to communicate some things.
i have begun applying for a new job. i am applying to be a Correctional Deputy with Pierce County. i took a Civil Service exam on Tuesday. This coming Wednesday i have a physical agility test to take. i decided to take it in Everett. Maybe i will get some pictures while i am there. i am only going to be there for two days. Only. i put only, because, well i grew up in Everett. So, naturally, i want to be there sometimes.
So far, i have completed every step of the program. For now, all that remains is to take, and pass a CPAT for Correctional Physical Agility Test. Originally, i had to do two assessments. Fill out my PHQ (Personal History Questionnaire). Then, take the Civil Service exam for Corrections. i took it in Lewisville. For the CPAT, they only offer it in two different locations: Phoenix, Arizona, or Everett, Washington. i chose Everett, Washington, because i have been wanting to go there. i already want to quit- i have second thoughts. But i am going to stick with it. To find out whether i even get hired.
Originally, i saw on Instagram. A plea by Pierce County for Correctional Deputies. They said they were undermanned. So, i was moved to apply. The job pays quite a bit more than what i get paid now. Plus, i would get to move to Washington. Western Washington, in the Pacific Northwest and with a view of Mt. Rainier. Sounds like a good deal to me. But i have some other things to sort out. According to a video, if all goes well, in three months i would get hired. But these are just the preliminary steps.
There is also a background investigation. A polygraph test will be conducted. An oral board. If i pass all that, a conditional offer to hire will be given. Then, i will have a Medical and phycological evaluation will be administered. Also, there would be lots of training to get through. But, if hired, i think i can handle it. i didn’t just put Pierce County on my application. i also put Snohomish County and Lewis County. They said in an e-mail, “Two job offers are better than one”.
Checking my e-mail, i see no more notifications from Pierce County on being hired as a Correctional Deputy. Maybe they found a more serious candidate. Anyways, i went out and smoked. I checked on Max too. i let him inside. Max is doing ok. He is still down stairs.
Well, that is all for now. i will keep you updated on being hired as a Correctional Deputy.
She will be missed. She saw a lot of history. The royal family must be devastated by the loss. She reigned for seventy years. Her Majesty saw so much history in the making. i saw part of the funeral, while i was at the VA last week. Queen Elizabeth II, i hope she followed Christ. She did say she tried to imitate Christ’s example. i saw that. It was interesting when the Archbishop read the convocation to the Funeral. Just think, that is more of God’s word heard by 4 billion people. The word of God was heard by almost the entire world. Your Majesty, you will be missed. God bless England!
i am debating about Trump on Facebook. This is the millionth time. i really should stop debating about Trump. His record speaks for itself. Trump was probably the greatest President America ever had. All news about Trump is “fake news”, propagated to counter his legacy. Trump has taught America so many things. Love thine enemies, do good to those who persecute you, never give up. America needed to learn these things. But America is kicking against the yoke of Christ.
Lamentations 4:1 “Look how the gold has become tarnished! The fine gold has changed! The sacred stones are scattered at every street corner.”
i shared this scripture from Lamentations. It spoke to me. It speaks about how the gold, which everyone considers valuable is no longer valuable. There is fine gold, but it has been changed. Making it worthless. The sacred stones are scattered about. The sacred stones are the people of Israel, scattered about the earth. The fine gold is the church, and the gold is Noah and his family. That is what i believe. All need to be redeemed by Jesus Christ, the light of the world. Somewhere it says, Christ redeems the gold. He refines the fine gold. He gathers the sacred stones from every street corner.
Here is a picture of my coffee machine. My medicines. Very fascinating photo. My Dad collects plastic cups from Cane’s. Cane’s servers some of the best chicken fingers. So delicious. The drawers are full of silverware, and you cannot see it, but off to the left is the toaster. Pilled up are the bags that my medicine was shipped in. This is an older picture of what my coffee mess looks like. It is very sparse. i don’t even use creamer.
2017 Nissan Versa
The above picture is a car i am looking at. i think i will buy it, when i can get the money. i like that red color. Allegedly, the Nissan Versa gets 41 miles pergallon. The car has 80k miles on it. its what i like- a nice small car, just for me, and my friends to ride in. The windows look like they have a slight tent, which i really like. Electric windows. i will get some alloy wheels for it.
Listening to Dr. Michael Youssef. He is being played on KCBI 90.9. It is so good to hear his voice, actually. He always talks about how God wants us to be holy. How God loves us. But a part of God’s love, is sharing the truth with us. That we deserve God’s wrath. Everybody. God picks no favorites, says Dr. Youssef. Right now, he is talking about Joseph being sold to Egypt. His enslavement there, and how Potifier’s wife treated him. His question: “Why does God allow evil”? God allows evil for our benefit. God has a plan for each of us. Look at Joseph and Daniel. They each followed after God. Both stories are uplifting, about people who followed God without question. They never complained.
i need to put on a new t-shirt. i have been wearing this one for about a week and a half. Each day that goes by, i realize the importance of taking care of myself. Sometimes i forget. Sometimes i refuse. But i somehow manage to care for myself eventually. Brushing my teeth is my priority, because at least people don’t have to smell my breath. Each day, we are challenged to love God, and that is so important.
i smoked a cigarette. i think i will smoke again. Each time i smoke, i feel on top of my game. But as soon as i finish, i feel regret. i feel that even though smoking isn’t a sin, God disapproves somehow. i feel guilt and regret, whenever i smoke. But it also makes me feel good, while i smoke. i think i will go smoke again. You can see how often i smoke by reading my blog. i will also refresh my coffee.
Each time i go and smoke, i notice how my Dad has two dirt bikes, both Baha’s, and they just sit on the back porch. They no longer have fuel i them. The fuel was drained. Some of the fuel spilt on the ground. Got to watch out for that when i smoke. The dirt bikes are red and white. They are very fun to ride. But my disability comes out when i try to ride a dirt bike. One time, i crashed a dirt bike into a house, at the Graves house. That was up in Washington. Poor Joshua, he didn’t know that i was going to crash into his house.
Each night, i spend more money. i need to watch my money, so that i can afford a car. Hopefully a Kia Soul. But i may have to go for the Nissan. My dad said he wants himself, and or my brother to check the car out, before i purchase it. i can just picture myself driving my own car once again. Hopefully, i don’t get into a wreck. That is what happened to the Hyundai Accent. It was a white car, with manual windows. i really liked the manual windows. It meant i had to do something in order to smoke.
No more Beto spam. That guy is a creep. i would never vote for him. He rides the coat tales of Mexican Americans (ones who came here legally, or have a legal right to be in America) and it is so offensive. Trump didn’t ride any coat tales. Trump, by God’s grace, made his own path to the white house. Beto is desperate to beat Abbott in order to bring the WEF to Texas. If Abbott wins, he will be in for his third term as Texas Governor. He has worked hard, and deserves a third term. Plus, his disability makes me think he can represent me. That whole disability thing, my disability is an invisible inhibitor. But it is so helpful to me, to be successful in my work. My work includes school.
My Trump debate tapered off. Proof- the discussion is over. You either support Trump, or you don’t. Trump has a way of dividing a room. Trump also has a way of uplifting a room. Trump gives encouragement where he can. But lately, he has often had to deliver bad news, about the depressing state of the country, left by Obiden.
Everything is boring right now. Everything is boring, without Stephanie. Stephanie, please come make things unboring. Please? For a while there was Lady Raven, but even Lady Raven has left me. She has made herself scare on Fetlife even. So, i don’t know, she might delete her fetlife. My one and only friend on Fetlife. i love Fetlife. It has produced some fond memories of “The life style”, with Lady Raven. She used to share images with me- oh those images. They helped me so many times. Ones like, “Big Boy”, and the Lady with the whip, over her slave. Next to her horse. She collared me at one point. Oh, Lady Raven, i miss You.
Well, i will go now. i have shared some of my deepest thoughts. My predicament with Stephanie seemed so close to fulfillment. Then, she blocked me. Of course, i didn’t realize she was Stephanie. i wish i had figured that out. i would have told her i loved her. She was precious to me. Greater than fine gold. i will imagine pleasing Lady Raven.
Today is another day. i already smoked, and i have my coffee. Now for some writing. i hope this writing prepares me for going back to school.
Scott called today. We talked for a good long while. Scott is applying back to work at Pepsi, but he is still working at Captain D’s. He said he will only work one day a week at Pepsi. He has to hire through a temp agency. i am so proud of Scott for not giving up.
Max is resting on the bed. The room is a mess. But i did pick it up a little bit about a week ago. That was before i went to watch the movie. i was reading in my Bible a little bit. i found a passage, another one from Philippians, which stuck out to me.
Philippians 3:17 “Brothers and sisters, imitate me, and pay attention to those who live by the example we have given you. 18 I have often told you, and now tell you with tears in my eyes, that many live as the enemies of the cross of Christ. 19 In the end they will be destroyed. Their own emotions are their god, and they take pride in the shameful things they do. Their minds are set on worldly things. 20 We, however, are citizens of heaven. We look forward to the Lord Jesus Christ coming from heaven as our Savior. 21 Through his power to bring everything under his authority, he will change our humble bodies and make them like his glorified body.”
When I cannot think of what to write, i just turn to scripture. It is the truth, and something to write about. i have to admit, i am not fully certain of what Paul is speaking about here. But he wants the Philippian church to imitate himself. He also wants them to look to the others who set an example for them. He warns against those who live as enemies against the cross. it sounds like these were people inside the church of Philippi. They were not living according to the instructions of Paul, and those who he wanted them to live by example. Paul includes the Church of Philippi as citizens of heaven, in verse 20.
i watched a film the other day. It was titled Maybe I’ll Come Home In The Spring. It starred Sally Fields, when she was really young. She ran away from home. Later, her boyfriend shows up, and her sister also ran off. The film was released on television in 1971. Sally Fields ran away to Los Angeles and spent time among the hippies. It was a “period drama”, which highlighted the way that they lived back then. At one point, Dennie’s boyfriend steals an ice cream truck, and gives all the ice cream away to the kids. Very funny scene.
Lorelie, from the Philippines, sends her regards. She started chatting me at about 3:20 AM. i checked my UTA e-mail. Nothing significant. More Trump e-mails. That Trump- he just never gives up. Speaking of Trump, Trump had this to say about the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago: They also took my personal tax records (this is ILLEGAL) and lawyer-client privileged information – a definite NO, NO. This reminds me of the Soviet Union!
They also took my personal tax records (this is ILLEGAL) and lawyer-client privileged information – a definite NO, NO. This reminds me of the Soviet Union!
Trump
Each day that goes by, i find myself a little discouraged over Stephanie. i wish i had heard from her. i must admit, that i don’t want to haring her though. i wish that she would willingly chat with me. i could ask her about school. How the weather is, how she is doing. But she never gives me the chance too ask about these things. i’ve missed you something terrible all these years. Why do you torture me so?
Time to refresh my coffee. Lorelie is talking about vlogging, now. Instead of blogging. You can make money vlogging. Sounds intriguing. These are a couple of vlog’s she shared:
They are based in the Philippines. Anyways, maybe you might be interested in them. So, i shared the images of them here. Now, you can find them. These are just some samples, Lorelie shared some others too.
Anyways, this is just another brief message. Have a good morning. i might need to look into vlogging. But i don’t really have anything to vlog about- except for Stephanie. i could blog about Trump too. School, or work. But those things are uninspiring to me, right now.
i found out about this series on YouTube. i like that it is history, and shared it here. This is just one of the incredible videos that this producer makes, about History. They always show a spectrum of history, usually something from the American Civil War, World War I, and World War II. Sometimes, things in between those events in history. Well, enjoy.
Not much going on, to write about. But i will try and write anyways. Today, i am going to speak with my counselor, Miss Vicki Walls. Tomorrow, when i get paid, i want to buy new shoes. Hopefully, the alternator on the Rodeo continues to function. Tomorrow is Fall. Hopefully, the weather will cool down enough. For it to feel like fall. But it sure is humid today. It is still dark out.
Right now i am listening to a mix of Last of the Mohicans. The soundtrack from the movie. i think you would like it. No, maybe not. i enjoy it. The creator of the video overlapped this soundtrack with the 8 minute version. Very interesting, that he got 9 minutes of beautiful music with it.
i shared it here. You can watch it on my page, or follow the link to YouTube. This is not the only version, but i like this version because it goes on for 9 minutes. What a genius content creator, whoever made this.
i guess i should just be grateful for the slow days. After all, soon enough they will be busy days, as i am planning to take a college class. i am looking to take Formal Logic 2311 from UTA, in the spring of 2023. Depending on how that goes, i might take a full load for the fall. i am excited to get back into school. i have been day dreaming about organizations to join. i checked my UTA e-mail. i got one e-mail from the Office of Students with Disabilities. They have a disabilities minor at UTA. It is associated with the History Department.
The other day, my two sisters, Elizabeth and Meagan, came over and took care of Dad for a while. They made him some soft foods, i see Sprite soda drinks in the refrigerator, and plenty of dishes. They got my Dad a Roku, and we connected it last night. Dad was finally able to watch some of his shows. He deserves it now after his operation. He still seems worn down because of it.
Max is just laying on the bed. Enjoying the music. i refreshed my coffee. It is still dark outside, even though it is after six. It messes with me. But i am glad for the darkness. The other day, while i was working, i noticed that the darkness lingered too. It is fall, must be why. Instead of getting dark early, like it did in Washington, here in Texas the darkness lingers. It goes good with a pot of coffee.
Philippians 2:30 “He risked his life and almost died for the work of Christ in order to make up for the help you couldn’t give me”. Paul wrote this to the Philippians. He was talking about Epaphroditus, one of his friends who helped him. Paul sent Epaphroditus back to the Philippians, because of his wonderful service. Paul called it a sorrow, if he had lost him to sickness. It is interesting how Paul called his almost dying, a death for Christ.
Scott called. i missed the call, so i am anxious to find out what he called about. i will try calling him after i post this blog post. But i think he works today. i think he still works at Captain D’s. But Scott said something about working at Pepsi too. He said he got his old job back at Pepsi. Scott said he enjoyed working at Pepsi because he knew the expectations. He knew his way around the place.
Natalie Jones sent me a picture of herself. She looks pretty. i don’t understand why she doesn’t have a boyfriend. But she likes connecting with me. She says she loves me. So, i tolerate her, and enjoy chatting with her when she does that. She said she doesn’t always like to chat. But on Sunday, she kept trying to video call me. i am not sure what that was about. i am not always sure about Natalie. My therapist said i should block her. i am going to try and talk to her about Natalie Jones. Would be interesting, because Natalie says she would be interested in meeting.
i still have not heard from Stephanie. i am rather disappointed. i had such high hopes for her. But now, i am not so sure. i want to give up. Trump says Never to give up. So, i listen to Trump. i am anxious to chat with you, Stephanie, if you are reading this. i still miss you, and your family.
i have a couple notifications on Facebook. But i don’t want to check them. it makes me miss Stephanie. Maybe it is time to get off Facebook. i am afraid my Facebook time will cut into my school time.
At church, Mrs. Missel is having shoulder surgery. i guess the Missel house will be a lot like our house, now that Dad had his surgery. The church has a meal request for her, from takethemameal.com. i tried ordering food through there for someone else once, it is annoying, but perhaps i will try it again. Once i get paid. i hope she recovers quickly.
Now that i am starting back to school, i have access to MS Word. I am so grateful for that. i suppose i should write this post in word. But i won’t, because i already started writing it. Maybe the next post, i will write it in word. Here i am fidgeting about english. i am a history major. The English is not as important. But i like it when my English is good. i like well written sentences and put together thoughts. i want to bring my writing to history. i want to write my book, about my Naval Service. i am sure it will be a good one, because it will involve the War on Terror.
i don’t write about haters. i don’t like including them in my life. So, i won’t include them on my blog. But i do keep track of them, when i can. Secretly, they are jealous, i have been told. Jealous of what? Being called a stalker? Standing post at 1 AM in the morning? A broken family. But my sister says she likes our family. So, i don’t know what to think on that one. i am just about finished with my coffee. Not even a full cup left. i impress myself when it comes to coffee.
Everything Is Changing: Church Post COIVD-19, Or Don’t Be Caught Dead In Church
Here is something i wrote down in Word. i meant this to be shared:
Everything is changing now. That’s what the song says. I always like to listen to sermons online. On the radio. I have been taking a particular interest to listening to services online. Worshipping God changed during the COVID-19 lockdown. Originally, they sought to shutdown the churches. But God would not be silenced. Every church began offering something online. Sometimes just a sermon. Others, an entire worship service. It was like a Church revolution pretty much. Conforming, yes obedient to Man and God. Without the government able to interfere any longer because how? There was no building to go shoot up. No church full of “innocents” to go massacre. They might unpack there guns, and find out there is nobody to shoot. Which is pretty miraculous. Trouble arose against the church. God provided a way out. Now to work on giving. I guess I just give to whatever ministry. For example, I gave to the “Voice of the Martyrs”, and let God sort the difference out. Maybe by contributing to one ministry, it will contribute to other ministries.
Beto Spams Texas
Beto spammed me on my phone. i told him, “we don’t need to WEF in Texas”. What we need is a secured southern border. Right now the Fed is not allowing for that. So, our next best bet is a strong governor willing to take steps to ensure such. #ImWithAbbott. Abbott is set to make history. My coffee is running out, which means i probably need to wrap this post up. Have a good morning.
The sun is rising. This reminds me of Japan. It makes me miss Japan. i should share one of my pictures of Japan.
Chief’s Mess at the DFW Joint Reserve Base
This is where i got my haircut several months ago. Interesting that the politicians decided to make the Chief’s mess the place to get a haircut. Just look at it. So sad looking at the inside. The poor Chiefs are out there mess. Meanwhile, i got my haircut. This is actually on the base.
Here is a carousel of images i made. Just thought i would share this. i am getting pretty hungry. Perhaps i will go to McDonald’s. Enjoy!
i went to a very secret location the other day. It was the LOOK Cinema in East Dallas. It was quite an adventure to get there. i had to go to I-20, then over to 408 spur, 12 South, then i had to get off the Highway. i had to take the back roads a bit. i left with less than an hour to get there, with an estimated travel time of 37 minutes according to Google. But i got there, and made it with a few minutes to spare. So, i smoked a cigarette before heading in. Just what was i doing at LOOK Cinema? i was there to see a movie.
That is right. i found a free screening for the movie Woman King. i know, i know. There are other films about the Dahomey. Why this one? Because it was about there warrior women. It ended up being a very good film, it included themes, like training, and motherhood all throughout the film. Plenty of womanly themes, that are good for men to know about. i didn’t know that they had free screenings of movies till i found this one. It was very good, and i went with the Dallas Girl Gang. They gave me a free handbag as i went in, and as they scanned my QR code.
Here is what was in the bag. A pen, and drink holder. Also, some body spray.
My experience with LOOK Cinema left only one thing to be desired: i was unable to tip. Other than that, my experience was very good. i had to scan a QR code in order to bring up the menu, and food service. i ordered my favorite, pepperoni pizza, and of course, coffee. So, i was able to refresh while i watched the film. The film starred Viola Davis. An American Actress. She received the an Academy Award, an Emmy, and a Tony Award. She began acting in Rhode Island. She got her big breakthrough after school in 1993. Her Academy Award was for Best Supporting Actress.
The film was very emotional. It didn’t try and whitewash the Dahomey involvement in the slave trade. It actually depicts it in an opening scene. One of the warrior trainees comes from the captives.
Dad is still in the hospital. He is hoping to come home tomorrow. Well, today. This morning perhaps. Hopefully, he is doing well. Mom has been really uplifting about school, lately. She is clearly rooting for me. Well, that is all for now. Thank you Dallas Girl Gang for the movie.
My Dad went to the hospital at 5:30 AM this morning. My brother, David, drove him to Medical City in Arlington, Texas. I tried to give him my backpack, incase he needed it. But when i went down this morning, he didn’t take the backpack, it was left unpacked. Oh, well, maybe he didn’t need it. Meanwhile, i went to the VA and got my labs done. Mom messaged me today. i missed a call from Scott Le.
My Dad went to the hospital at 5:30 AM this morning. My brother David drove him to Medical City, Arlington, Texas. My Dad had intestinal surgery. When my brother got to the hospital, he sent me a text with a screen shot of a number and code i could text to in order to get updates. Indeed, i got updates even on when they moved my Dad from the operating room. It all seemed very smooth. My Dad had a tumor he had to have removed. The tumor was in his intestines.
Medical City, where my Dad is. Google.com
i got to the hospital myself at 12 noon. It took me a moment to find parking, but it was worth it. i got to spend time with my brother in the waiting room. We talked about life, and about the military, and some about what is going on in the world. We drank coffee too. Which i was very much a fan of. The coffee helped me to not nick so badly, as i waited to hear how Dad was doing. My brother had been waiting with my Dad, rather than going to work. i was so proud of my brother for doing this. My brother was called to be in attendance of my Dad.
After my brother left i was alone. So, i wandered around the waiting room for a bit. i found a monitor in the adjourning room, that showed the status of the patient. i guessed that my Dad was RM. For Richard McCarty. The lady at the front desk came over and talked to me. She explained the Doctor would be in. When she went to comment on Dad’s status, i let her know “His procedure is complete”. i also bought a small bag of peanut M&Ms. After i finished my peanut M&Ms and coffee, my brother came back into the waiting room and said it was time to go see Dad.
Although Dad’s procedure was done at Medical City, we had to go over to the Women’s Hospital to see my Dad. They explained, that the only thing we could feed him were ice chips. The first thing Dad said was, “Can you get me some Chick-Fil-A”? i was surprised to see Dad doing so well after his operation. The Doctor who did the operation was from southern India. i guess he did an amazing job. My Dad seemed to be doing well, though he also said, “I feel like I’ve been punched in the gut about 200 times”.
This morning, while my Dad was in his operation, i had to go to the VA. i needed a blood draw. Labs, for my upcoming medical examination. i went ahead and got them, on the recommendation of Dr. Moradi from Mental Health. This time, there was a kiosk. i had to go up to the kiosk and select “Blood Draw” from the list of options. The KIOSK printed out a little sheet of paper, and on it was “L160”. That was my number to be called by the VA for my blood draw. As i waited, i kept getting updates on my Dad’s procedure. First they called me “Now serving L-One-Six-Zero” to Station #1. The lady at the counter asked for my VA card, and gave me my labs. Then, she explained they would call me again, using the same number.
It didn’t take long for the VA to call me again. But while i waited, i noticed they had a TV on. “The VA has a TV”? i thought. So, i wanted to see what was on the television, which i thought i could tell but wasn’t sure. i wandered outside of the waiting area, and kind of passed around for a moment. Then, headed back to the waiting area to find an open seat with a view of the television. They were broadcasting part of Elizabeth II’s funeral on the television. So, i watched that while i waited to be called. i thought it was ironic, i was at the VA Clinic, my Dad was at Medical City, and Queen Elizabeth II was being laid to rest. She will remain at State for four days, proceeding her burial. A convocation was given by the Archbishop of Canterbury.
Anyways, once they called me back for my labs i was glad. The lady who did my blood draw welcomed me, and i greeted her. Then, before i knew it, my blood draw was over. i said “Thanks” to both her, and the lady at the front desk. i checked my phone for updates, and headed to the VA’s PatriotCafe where i could get some food. i had turkey sausage and grits. Yum. After i hate, i headed out to the Rodeo. i smoked a cigarette before leaving. Then, i got in the Rodeo and headed home.
Just a little while ago, i heard from my Mom. She texted me about renting a car. She explained it would be expensive. Indeed. It was cheaper to buy and install another alternator, than to rent a car. it was good to hear from Mom. She has been quiet for a several days. But i know she is busy, teaching, and helping Meagan and Jordan with Tate. She hardly gets any rest, at this point.
Last night before bed. Scott called, but i didn’t answer. i was in bed, and ready to sleep. i hope he forgives me. It would have been nice to hear from him. But i know he is busy, so i think he will understand. We are both pretty busy right now. Maybe during the holidays we will get some time together.
Well, that’s how things are going for now. Max is just resting on the bed. i think i am ready to smoke. Ready to publish my post. i don’t have any politics on here today. Other than that i left #EntertheStars Facebook group, because it has turned into an AntiTrump rag. They claim Trump is the anti-Christ. Uh- doesn’t everyone worship the Anti-Christ? Anyways, i was wondering how you are doing. Let me know. Well, i will talk again with you later on.
Once again, the alternator on the Rodeo went out again. This is now the third or fourth time that the alternator on the Rodeo has gone out. My Dad has intestinal surgery on Wednesday, so i am going to rent a car while he is in the hospital. i took an Uber after work, the other day. But i think cost wise it will be just as well to rent a car. i also joined a new Facebook group.
Below is the Rodeo. The Rodeo’s alternator went out again. i was at work, which is really the only time that i drive the Rodeo. i went to go get a coffee, and sure enough, the brake light and battery light came on just as i turned the corner. i wanted to get back to work incase the Rodeo died. So, i turned around, just short of the QT. But just as i turned on to Commerce, the Rodeo began cutting out.
i called my Dad. He raised to where i was waiting, with the Rodeo. As i didn’t make it back to work, i was stuck waiting in the middle of the road. But my Dad brought a spare battery. He said to drive the Rodeo home. After the spare battery was installed, i started the Rode. It started up just fine. Dad said not to run the A/C, the radio, and to keep from rolling the windows down, to preserve power. We wanted to avoid paying for a tow truck. After driving the Rodeo to the house, my Dad drove me back to work. i made sure to take my charger with me, so i could at least charge my phone.
My Dad has surgery coming up. My Dad has surgery on Wednesday, which is the day after tomorrow. When he was driving me back to work, he suggested renting a car. i said Uber. At least for that night, as i was missing work. i just wanted to get back to work. But my Dad decided to stop at McDonalds. Which turned out to be a good thing, because i was hungry. i ordered the McNuggets meal. The Number 5. Large. i paid for my meal, and my Dad’s cookies and tea that he wanted. After that, we got on I-20 and headed back to Belt Line.
After driving me back to work, my Dad ate his cookies in the parking lot. While, i put my phone on the charger. Then, i ate my chicken nuggets. The fries too. Then, my Dad wished me well, and headed home. i decided to wait to download Uber, for when my phone had charged. So, i did my rounds, and waited for my phone to charge. i had my cooler that Mom had given to me, and an ice pack with a bottled water. My medicine too.
At about 1:30 i was ready to download Uber. i went on Google and looked up Uber, and downloaded it into my phone. i already had an account with Uber. i just had to update my payment method. After updating my payment method i was ready to see what Uber could do for me. i was able to schedule my Uber ride for 6 AM. It even told me who my driver would be, and what car they were driving. My Uber driver ended up being Patrice in a Nissan Altima. It also showed me the price. $47 dollars. i should have rented a car. Nevertheless, i wanted to try out Uber incase i need to take on Uber for school.
At about 0600 my Uber ride showed up. i got in the car, and she explained that the Uber app had turned her around a couple times. Had had her try to go through where she couldn’t turn into, where the gate was closed. i told her that was ok. It actually worked out because i got to leave work on time. My Uber ride started at 6 AM. By 6:26 AM i was already home. My Uber ride went very well. i was half tempted to see if she would stop so i could get food. But decided against that. “At least i have a ride home”, i thought. i was impressed with the convenience of Uber, but the price was a bit high for me. So, i will try renting a car for a week. So, that i can still make it to work. The price is about the same, but not really because it is about $40 dollars per day to rent a car. Whereas just that one Uber trip was $47 dollars. i remembered to tip my driver. She did really welly, i was impressed with her driving and how skillfully she maneuvered her car. i felt safe the entire time. Thank you Patrice, for the lift.
i joined a new Facebook group. The group is led by Christopher Porter. The group is called Rise Of The Christian Phoenix. i am very impressed with it. The group has high quality content that seeks to praise the Lord. My blog is not a Christian or religious blog. But i am a Christian. So, i seek fellowship with other Christians. Especially in these times. The persecution is coming. What we sew, we will reap. i feel it. It is coming. Get ready! If you are on Facebook, and a Christian i recommend checking out Rise of The Christian Phoenix.
My school application is still pending. i am going to attend Maverick Experience Day. That is on October 8, 2022. From 8 AM to 3 PM. The details will be e-mailed to me, two days prior to the event. So, parking, and additional instructions. This is my second Maverick Experience Day. i am going to make sure i never have to apply as an undergraduate ever again. But, when i have graduated and finished my degree, i think i will take a graduate class. Just one, to experience what the graduate level is like.
I found this meme on Tumblr. It tells a story of Trump i have never heard before, from 9/11. The meme is right- you never hear these kinds of stories in the Fake News Media.
Well, that is all for now. i just wanted to update you on the alternator in the Rodeo (again). I also wanted to show you, how my Uber experience went. Pretty good. But it was a tad expensive for a trip from work. i guess this once will be ok, though. Here on out, i am going to rent a car. i also wanted to introduce you to Rise of The Christian Phoenix Facebook Group. Then, i also wanted to share a positive Trump meme. Lord knows, there are not to many of those. Poor Trump, he is constantly under attack from the Fake News. In conclusion, i just wanted to say, “Have a good day”. i hope you enjoyed reading my blog.
i work tonight. Right now i am just drinking a Seven eleven coffee. Writing in my blog, and listening to KCBI. i did some more studying today in Introduction to Logic by Irving M. Copi. Then, i had Colter’s Barbeque with Mom.
This is the meal that Mom bought for me. It was brisket this time, with BBQ sauce. The fries were out of this world. i made sure to get a drink this time. The food tasted so much better, because Mom got it for me. i didn’t even have to smoke a cigarette. i just ate my meal, and then Mom took me home, like a nice date. Wow, Thank you so much Mom.
This is Mom eating the Blue Platter. It looks so delicious except for the green beans, and okra. She also got a roll with it. Mom explained that this was Gram’s favorite restaurant. Aww. i miss you Grams. But you are in a better place now. After school, Mom had a meeting today. After the meeting, Mom came and picked me up. We just sat there and enjoyed our meals. It was really a good time.
Elizabeth II died. She died peacefully, at the age of 96. Now, it will be King Charles, of England will rise to the throne.
Are you surprised? i shared a Trump meme on my blog. The meme hasn’t been fact checked. The FBI has been weaponized against Trump and MAGA. All news about Trump, is fake news. It isn’t real. If you really want to know about Trump, you have to step back in time. You have to read his book, Art Of The Deal. THAT contains the real news about Trump. People who read Trump’s book know all about Trump. i will give you an excerpt from Trump’s book, on page 170. “The third group of tenants live in smaller apartments with tiny kitchens and windows facing the court. Not surprisingly, these people are generally of modest means. A number of them are elderly, living on social security. Their rents are below market value, but not nearly to the degree of their wealthy neighbors in the front apartments. A comparable studio in the neighborhood might rent twice what most of these tenants are now paying.”

Trump’s Art Of The Deal
Well, anyways, i think i have my publication ready to go. i hope you enjoyed reading a tiny portion of Trump’s book. It gives you an idea of what the man supports. Trump labored hard to provide affordable housing to elderly citizens of New York. That is the real news about Trump.
Trump is mocked at the UN when he chides Germany for being to reliant on Russia for energy. Meanwhile, Kelly at Fox News confides that Wind and Solar are not ready. Germany forced to use coal to supplement its energy crisis. Meghan Merkle compares herself to Nelson Mandela.
i applied to UTA again. This time i am determined to take a class. i am going to take Formal Logic 2311. i was already able to login to MyMav, and almost enroll in a class. But when i clicked enroll, i got the error in the feature image. i rushed down to UTA, to see if my advisors could help me. Mr. Hunnicutt told me i applied for Spring of 2023. So, advising begins in October, and enrollment in November, explained Miss Nancy. i am determined to take one class this spring, and this class will finish my associates degree. i will transfer it to TCC along with my other credits. Hopefully, this will complete my Associate of Arts degree. It fulfills math for my degree. i am so excited to be heading back to school. My goal is to be a Bachelor with a Bachelor’s degree.
My Dad bought some more transmission fluid for the Rodeo. So, i owed him $40 dollars. He bought a whole gallon of fluid at Wal Mart. Max is just resting on the bed. i am listening to June Hunt on the radio. My Dad came into the living room and cried, “Vote republican on November 8”. My Dad sure has become concerned with politics lately. Partly, it had to do with Joe Biden’s insightful speech where he tried to instigate violence. Something is not right with that man.
Speaking of Biden. i found this meme, shared by Dave Glovin, on Facebook:
Very telling meme. Remember this: Trump won, Biden was selected. The democrats are ratcheting up there power. Time to counter them in November. Don’t let the “violence” inducing democrats lead our country. Speaking of leading our country, i found an interesting article on WORLD, which scrolled across my Facebook News Feed.
Clinging to a hidebound vision
The article can be found here. Here is an image associated with the article:
It is Dove Cameron posing with her MTV award. Basically, the article was about the irony of the MTV awards. How all of the presenters, and awardees attempt to sound progressive. But in the end, they just regurgitate the same nonsense espoused by dead white men, while claiming to be virtuous by embracing the “sexual” revolution.
How many progressive performers realize when they take the mic that they are doing little more than regurgitating the perverted doctrines of dead white men?
Thaddeus Williams
The MTV awards were held on August 28, 2022. They continued on with there agenda of sexualization. The writer said, “Imagine if someone were to say they stand for Biblical values”. They would be called a bigot, insensitive. That’s what the author had to say about the MTV awards. Beware, when the world loves you, for the love of the father is not in you. We need to stand by the word of the Father, even when it is unpopular. i believe the persecution is coming, when you will have to decided whether you stand with God, and His values, or the World and it’s values.
“A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.” Proverbs 15:1. This verse comes from my devotional, i got from KCBI. The devotional proports this: “It is likely you may have an opportunity to to put this truth into practice this very day. Choose wisely”. The devotional is free. i recommend it. i found this verse while searching the scriptures: “It is new every morning. His faithfulness is great.” Lamentations 3:23. This verse comes from the God’s Word Translation.
