I wish YOU well.......

I’m 40.
I decided that I would add my last blog post and kind of explain why I don’t blog here anymore, and Tell you guys how much I have missed you.

This website has censored me. I look at blogs as free expression and if you don’t like the content or the language or what the blogs say or anything about it, the United States of America constitution gives you the right to comment, or even just go someplace else, or not read it. We won’t always agree. But this blog was representation of who I am,… Continue

I wish I could clean my house like I clean my guns

Yes, I know. Got you worried with the "g" word after my times and struggles as of late, and I will explain a bit so relax. :o)

Today it was warm enough to finaly go out and do what I truely love o do still. Target shoot and sight in my rifels and handguns. Just being out in the hills and concentrating on putting a small fast prjectile into a very tight group on a piece of paper is very relaxing for me, it is even better when youreach that point because then you can put holes in things and make… Continue

Hey Robert...thanks for the invite!
I can't say I'm on the same p[age when it comes to hunting; but we're all entitled to be different. Other than that, I'm certain there are many things we can connect on....and I'm here with open ears, heart and mind. I listen well.

Hello Robert!
I miss you. It's been really crazy at my end, but I'm happy that summer vacation is here. I just updated my page here at tudiabetes and was about to find you and then I seen your comment on my page! Your ears must of been ringing. Happy Birthday! You were there to witness Tony's first win! AMAZING! That had to be a blast! Were you there to see the Nationwide race where Kyle Bush smashed the guitar that he won! ~ he loves to rock the boat! I'm sorry to hear that you are not feeling well. Get better soon. Olivia is doing pretty well, but her numbers have been crazy. They want to test her for celiac disease in July because her blood work came back "borderline" ~ that stinks, but it is nothing compared to what you are going through. Please keep me informed on how you are doing. I'm sending you my good wishes to get better. I'm going to try my best to keep in touch with everyone better. Are you a facebook member? It is another good way to keep in touch! Take care Robert!
Sincerely,
Ronda
