Just A Few Lines
Thanks for those of you who still stop by from time to time. I haven’t spent much time at the computer recently for a number of reasons but, for those of you who have asked about us, trust me….we’re doing well.
Michelle’s chemo took her hair again but she made it through fine and her hair is coming back even though she’s continuing on a new round of a pill form of chemo. It’s making her hands and feet a bit sensitive but otherwise she’s tolerating it well and all the tests show that she doing fantastic. Thank God for that.
I’ve been trying to get back into the office a few days a week but I feel a bit like a stranger in my own company! My brother/partner has been running things for so long and the biz has grown so much that I can’t seem to feel comfortable anymore. We still have the base of ‘old’ employees, five or so but now there are many more ‘new’ ones and damn…they are all so friggin’ young! Sometimes I feel as if I hear one more sentence containing sixteen ‘oh my gawd’, ‘you know’ or ‘like’s I’m gonna go berserk! College freakin’ graduates who talk like damned ‘80’s’ era Valley Girls! Lord save me. Oh yeah…why do they have to call everyone (except Mike and I) ‘dude’? Just asking. And what’s up with them showing up for work as though they just rolled out of bed? Damn I’m getting old.
Okay….I’ll shut up now!
I’ve been asked why I quit blogging regularly and to be honest…I don’t know but I’ll resume someday I’m sure. I think one reason is that one of my employees found out about the blog and now I feel kind of weird about writing anymore. Strange. He’s a great kid and he says he loves my stuff but still…just seems kind of strange to me.
Well, anyway…that’s the update and I hope to be back soon.
God Bless you all.

First, my warm thoughts and prayers are with you and Michelle. I'm glad to hear that she's doing better. She's had a tough road, but she's such an amazing trooper!
I think the reason your feeling weird about the kid reading your blog is because this is personal space where you can remain somewhat anonymous amongst us, who are mostly your contemporaries. It's a lot harder to "let it all hang out", an old phrase I'm sure you remember, knowing some kid will be in your face the next day, "Dude, oh my gawd! Like that last shit you wrote was like awesome, you know?" {evil grin}
I hope you find a way to come to terms with this new notoriety and get back to blowing us away with your incredible shit and wit!
Peace & Love, Rocky
heh...as his boss, couldn't you order him not read here anymore?
Or block him somehow?
Anyway, I'm so glad to hear Michelle is doing so great! So amazing, she is.
Maybe your new responsibilities at work should include training all the newbies to communicate as mature adults...?
Good luck with them.
It's good to see you back here, even briefly. I visit often to make sure I don't miss anything!
Wishing you all the best, darlin'
