Lets use this thing

Yes, I'm trying to get back into the habit of posting here.  

1: Exercise will reduce stress even if you don't realize you have any.

2: Sometimes the only smart answer is to walk away even in affairs of the heart.

3: Having a snarky comeback will almost always cause more trouble than it is worth.

4: I need to spend more time out of the house.

5: It only takes a small change of circumstance to shift your life and/or lifestyle in major ways. 

Thanksgiving was good.  My mom came out and we had a family dinner at a local resort.  It was odd to just show up 15 minutes before a reservation and then order a meal.  We were in and out in less than 90 minutes.  I really missed having left overs the rest of the weekend.  I mean, who cooks Thanksgiving weekend?  LOL

My car is having some issues and that sucks.  That's going to be money out of pocket when all I have in there are some dead moths.  I NEED new tires (at least 2) and to change out my tail lights.  I may just change out my head lights as well.  At least besides the tires it appears to not be anything to serious.  There is some body work I need done but that can hold off for a few months.  Having to pay those back taxes really put my back to zero. 

I've opted out of going to Dickens this year.  I just can not justify the expense for a day in SF. I'll already be there for New Years so that will have to do. 

One of my uncles is in the process of dying.  It looks like he will not last into next month.  But he is already past the day they said he would pass so maybe he will recover.  He has liver cancer and has been battling with it for several years.  It had gone into remission a few years back but has returned.  He's been in the hospital for a couple of weeks.  I missed seeing him when he was in the an LA hospital.  I thought he would be there more then a couple of days then be released.  Instead they transferred him to another state and then he took a turn for the worst. 

I took the weekend off from exercising.  Its been an interesting journey.  My run on Monday was a third faster then when I did the same run 3 weeks ago.  I have adjusted my push ups to a format which will get me back into gymnastics form.  Good god, these are kicking my butt again.  I was doing about 500, 2 to 3 days a week and last night I managed 165.  LOL  I can feel it!

I am in the market for  a new job as well.  I'd like to get back to the Long Beach/Huntington Beach area or move up to the San Francisco region.  Ventura just isn't doing it for me.  I'm not leaving without a job though.  It is nice to have a decent paying job and I would love to get another one, this time in a location I like. 

That's it for now. 
Have a nice video...
