WTF

 Well , March 22, 2021, I was let go from my school job. The laundry list was long, but the assistant super had convinced the super I needed to go. Ok things happen for a reason. So maybe I’ll see someday. Good Fuckin’ Riddance!

I have now had 4 surgeries to try and fix my leg. I’m currently awaiting a 5th and hopefully final surgery.

Been trying to sell mother-in-laws house for almost two years now. There is a property line issue, and Covid killed the property owners next door, so we’re dealing with their heirs, who think we’re cheating them, so we have to go to a judge to have it settled. Covid didn’t get the right people. Some people should just be chased down and eaten by a bear!

As I reflect on the upcoming thanksgiving holiday, and wonder what there is to be thankful for, I remembered this from grandpa Leonard. Sorry if it’s already on here lower down.

“A pig drank a gallon of milk before he started, ran a mile and then he farted. The farther he runs, the faster he gets. How far will he run before he shits? A farmer laying in the grass, raised his head as the pig ran past, said “If he keeps a tight ass and all of his wits, he’ll go ten miles before he shits!””

I’m working on being the grandpa he was to me, to my little Vinnie. They haven’t filed a restraining order yet!

 The Uncle P Way.


I have finally found how to get back into this thing. Even more has happened since last I penned a misguided rambling.

First. I'm a grandpa. My youngest daughter had my first grand son on January 7th 2020. He is now just over a year old. I am already doing my best to spoil him and to corrupt his way of thinking. He's just at that stage where he's really vocal but not saying a lot of words yet. I love it when he comes to visit or stay with us but we also love it when he goes back home at the end of the visit. He doesn't always sleep well at night. But soon enough, he will be ready form my twisted stories as passed on to me by my grandpa.

The next biggest thing was I broke my leg May 29th 2020 and have had three surgeries on it since then. I was off work till mid January 2021. I am still not fully healed, and currently still taking physical therapy several times per week, but I have been sent back to work without restrictions. Not sure how much better I'm going to get. I go for a checkup tomorrow and am hoping there are no more surgeries. My fibula is still broken, or it was on my last checkup, and connected with a wire. My Tibia has a new metal rod inserted in it with a box of screws on each end and some plates on the ankle area. I was on a 10' ladder, making repairs to some cabling, when the ladder decided it could no longer hold me up that high and decided to twist and turn and throw me off of it in the process. Strange part was, I had just taken my first step down when it let go.

All of my social club activities have been on hold with the pandemic, and now its even worse as the place has been closed for a month with no water. The bright side is I have been invited to install the new offices in Mesquite Tx on April 10th, 2021 and I was invited to judge the national competition in Tampa Fl. July 1-7, 2021. Got my first COVID vaccine on March 4th and my follow up is scheduled for April 1st, so I will be fully vaccinated and ready to go. Mom and Dad are already fully vaccinated, and wifey, and two of my kids will be by the end of March. My youngest is the hold out. She doesn't trust the vaccine or the companies who made it, along with most other things in the world now of days.

If I can ever find an app to get this back on my phone it would be so much easier. There's still hope!!!
