Well today is fathers day , it's raining, gloomy and nobody gives a shit about me. Raise 3 kids , give them all you can , love, food, clothes, support, even give up having 3 of your own blood to help raise them with their mom, what do I get for Fathers day? A stupid text. not even a phone call, asking for a visit is like asking for the moon. Not even 1 phone call all year. Its going to be a depressing day, "Happy Fathers day" yeah, right, it was when mine was alive, I always visited him and called, it is called love and respect for someone and I thought I instilled that quality in my three but they just give me a text, "Happy fathers day. I love you"
Bullshit ! If you love me, this is all you can do to show me? Edward senior did that much for them and now they are doing it to me. I might as well be dead to them. What a sucky day.
Oh and I won't even go into the wife is pissed at me for something I didn't do and gives me that old asshole line"well if you don't know I not going to tell you shit.
Did I mention I feel like a load of steaming dog shit right now? Who cares about it unless they step in it, that's me.
OK, It's now a few hours later and I'm feeling better about myself. My Daughter Ann called me and we had a good long talk and I told her I appreciate her calling me so much, she doesn't know how much it meant. Then my new son Freddy stopped by for a visit (his real Dad is dead) and he even brought me a father's day card ! So maybe I am not a steaming pile of dog poop after all. Just need someone to tell me they care every once in a while.

Wedding
Donna and I made another trip to Va. put 1600 miles on the Lexus with no tickets and no troubles. We stayed on the 10th floor of the Renaissance motel in Portsmouth overlooking the Harbor. Nice view of some tug boats, warships and ferries. We felt like big niggers staying in such a fancy place and we really enjoyed it. The guy doing the wedding service really screwed it up, he forgot their names, forgot to pronounce them man and wife and even forgot the ring part. I am now able and legal to marry people but haven't yet as part of me was scared to offer but after seeing how bad this man screwed up I feel ok about it now, I couldn't do any worse, ha ah! the bar of standard has been lowered a lot.
Afterwards the DJ was most like most I have heard, sounded like a dj on an old AM radio show and could barely understand them. They played mostly new jungle music but one of my nieces urged me onto the dance floor and we had fun anyway! It's been about 20 years since I have danced but did pretty good if I do say so myself. Later Donna and I were just about to turn in at 11:30 when we got a phone call from downstairs, some People asked if I would come outside on the patio and play my guitar and sing for/with them. Naturally I jumped at the chance since I never get the chance anymore to play in front of people. Boy did we all have fun, they were requesting all different kinds of songs and I did them! It was really cool, they sang along and everything! We stayed out till about 2:30. What fun ! They actually liked my playing and singing , one couple even said I had a Merle haggard THING GOING ON WITH MY VOICE. ha...what a compliment !
Before we left we offered two of our granddaughters to come and stay at our home and watch our dog Charlie but both didn't want to. We thought they would jump at the chance to make some extra money and have a big house all to themselves but we were wrong. So instead Charlie stayed at the vets so they made a easy $185. We would have much rather paid either of our granddaughters but oh well, what can you do but offer?
I have decided to redo my home's front flower bed and all my work is paying off, it really turned out pretty, I also put some tomatoes and peppers out back. I grew the peppers from seeds out of a big yellow bell pepper we ate that I bought at Walmart and saved the seeds. So now we have bunches of little green tomatoes and even some little peppers.
The trip was fun seeing my extended family but it's nice to be back home again.
