Last Visit......

Well I finished up with my psychologist last week. It was a good experience. He helped me look at the big picture. I approach things better now. I learned to accept things as they are. That I am accepting the new me. It took almost six years to figure that one out. :Scratch-Head: But I am a little slow. I am glad I did go. I had to complete a training class for a whole week at work. I was in a room all week for training, one on one training. My biggest fear was not allowing anyone to see my d

Funny spring story!

So it's spring right? I got up this morning to check the status of the winter storm. I looked at the driveway.... went out to our little township road..... Nope, I was not going to make it to work in my Honda Accord. So what else do I have to do? I'll clean the driveway. Hop on the tractor, and I begin to clean the drive. Snow is heavy so i am using the loader bucket. Got to the sidewalk to the back deck. Got stuck.... slid and hit the side of the house! Put a hole in the siding. Started fixing

Many trips

We just got back from a Smokey Mountain trip with the entire family. We rented a cabin for our Christmas. Just happened to schedule in Feburary . It was awesome. Then somehow I got suckered in a cruise. A week latter. Turmoil for me. i am a planner. This trip a four day cruise to the Bahamas. My first cruise.( Maybe my last) ; ) I am going with my wife's side of the family. Of course i got the premium beverage package. So maybe some relieve. It is more of a gambling cruise, Alantas. I think I wi

This is one song from the soundtrack. it has one little riff :goodjob: in it, But other then that it is a really neat song.Hopefully the link works

2nd Visit

Yesterday was my second visit to the psychologist . I went the first time and was a little taken back by him noticing that I had a slight speech impediment. (Which i do have) He sent me home with a cd and an appointment for a follow up in two weeks. I canceled the appointment, and later decided to reschedule. This session went better. It's all information gathering now. He is trying to figure me out. I think I could do myself but I am too deep in the woods and cannot see over the tree tops. i am

I do not know about this dude!

I went for the first time to meet a psychologist today.... very interesting. My wife went with me. I think it was more therapeutic for her then me. A little recent history of me. I have a really bad sinus infection, very congested, feel like crap. He is asking my wife more questions then me. Asked about the kids and what was going on in their life and then starts asking me a few questions. And out of the blue he blurts out "How long have you had this speech impediment". Really? He had a couple o

Going to try something different.

I am going to see a psychologist this week for my anxiety. i am getting tired of being medicated to deal with it. I had some type of what you would call a social anxiety pre stroke. Nothing to major. Just trouble talking in a large group settings and I had to give production status reports in our daily managers meeting which was around 50 people. This was basically the only time I felt anxiety. ( I still do the meetings) Now post stroke is allot different. I can not handle large crowds; the caf

My first motorcycle...... The beginning......

My first experience with a motorcycle was when I was in my mid 30's. i always wanted a Harley but since i did not know how to ride a motorcycle my wife convinced me of getting a used bike to at least learn on then get the Harley. Sounded like a pretty good idea too me. So I bought a bike. A small 750cc honda... in mint condition. I got my temporary license, tags, insurance. I am ready to roll. I went down the road a few times. Pretty straight shot. ( no curves) My friends wife stopped over, my

Hmm.... Ok I stepped out a little with my first blog. A milestone to say the least. I have been cutting a little wood.. well splitting allot of wood. It is killing me. I had 4 trees cut down because they were a little aged. Of course I said I would keep the wood.... bad choice. I have spent three.... three days splitting wood. Not at all what i would consider fun. Do not remotely enjoy it. I would have to say i hate splitting wood. I had one maple tree that had a least a 6 foot trunk. My chainsa
