My recent trip to Ecuador - allowed me to experience touching, skewing and placing wiggling grubs on the open fire in the Amazon Rainforest. The look on my face was due to the new experience.  Once cooked they taste like bacon.

My Best Companions Ever!

 Approaching the end of 2021, here is the best picture of my furry babies Dusty and Powder.  Powder (below) was the first one I obtained from the Jacksonville Humane Society and has only 3 legs. Then his brother as a Foster; I am a Foster failure.  Aren't they the best looking brothers? They have kept me occupied during the second year of the COVID-19 pandemic and so on.  Below is the boxed set - Powder top box then Dusty bottom box. 

Welcoming the Roaring 20's

For whomever is reading this, it has been a long time and Facebook has taken place of blogging like this. We are in the midst of COVID-19 stay at home directives even for work. Some day we will be looking back at this time as a significant culture changing history. Anyway - all the best for our high schoool graduates in this new decade in the most strangest reverse of our time with modern technology. 

Greetings and Happy New 2018 Year!

This blog site has definitely changed so I am test driving it to see what my new posts look like now. 

Is this thing on? In Baltimore last year's solution enabling a large room full of people to hear someone on a conference call through the room's ceiling speakers.  Quite innovative for the 21st century, hah?
Since then my next gig is in New Jersey for more technology implementation...mobile label printers.

Testing this Old Blog Site

Hello everyone - to those who really read and follow me, I am back testing this blog site making sure I still have access to it.  Many security checks for sure in this generation with the internet and hackers. Post menopause and such has not left me with a good physique so I will post a cute photo of a stray cat at the theater I volunteer at Ocala Civic Theater.  Oh yeah, I moved cross country in with my Father in Florida.  This June marks the third anniversary of my Mother's passing.

Cheers for now!

Missing my Paradise

Now that Christmas is near, I have moved away from Central Coast to Inland Empire - I have to say that I miss the paradise that I lived in for the past 4 years.  The new job is growing on me but there is no place like the comforts of good air quality, sandy beaches and the ocean sounds and salt air.  I keep finding this a challenge to get my account accessed to post new entries here.  I know this is a public place on the internet but I realize that nobody seems to read it anymore which I consider this a private journal location for me.

Next weekend I will fly to Floirda again to be with Dad. Today would have been my mother;s 81st birthday.  Meetup group locally in Inland Empire is getting easier. Still finding it difficult to establish long-term relationships.  Chuck has decided to take a more convenient choice of relationship and stick to the Central Coast instead of making it with me with a long-distance.

Whatever technical trick is behind this to keep my access to post here, I am thankful.  I have to keep posting here on a routine basis to keep this access blog.  More will come...Happy Holidays to me!

Another New Chapter away from ShangriLa

Life is truly running fast forward...the passing of my mother the day after I euthanize Freckles has certainly taken me back.  Nothing else matters in terms of climbing any career ladder.  After 2 trips to Florida to help Dad, my estranged sister shows up by surprise on his doorstep with her husband after 20 years of no contact. 

I am pleased for the new found society of Meetup group events that I have attended her in Central Coast CA but now have to migrate to the Inland Empire groups...away from beach opportunities.  :(  Hopefully I am able to return to this region when I really retire from work....someday.
