Oh man !!....the other day Amanda (lil) saw Bobby & Tiffany holding hands walking down the sidewalk smiling at each other. Amanda was bothered by it, let Vicky know what was going on. Vicky had let Becky know what happened and Becky confronted Bobby....then ALL HELL broke loose.Now Bobby is real pissed at Amanda and is saying that she is lying about it. When we had picked up Sam it was bought up just momentarily and Sam surprised me when she said she didn't see no reason why Amanda would lie.Especially when Rachael and me saw him & Tiffany down at the pool playing around in the water ! I just think Bobby needs to control himself and realize how good he's got it with Sam. She's a smart girl and has a good head on her shoulder.
friend, & father. The craziness, boredom, anger and happiness of the past 7 years while raising two wonderful kids and meeting some of the most amazing people, who (insert deep breath here) each have their roller coaster ride what we call life. Don't be shy....feel free to comment! (music player is at the bottom of the page to stop or change songs)

Good friends moving away
Aug 3rd, 2004
Wow !...I was pretty busy last week, a lil overtime at work, sayin goodbye to Janet, Graham and Megan, and driving Brandon back down to SC with Amanda (big). I'm gonna miss Janet and the gang....they were real good people, she was real cool.
Amanda was in tears when we dropped off Brandon in Manning, SC. She loves Brandon so much. You know she'll make a great mother. She's got a real good heart. I know she's hurting & lonely inside. I mean I can see why, she's been dumped twice !!.She deserves alot more. I wanna hug her so bad, just to let her know that "Hey...as a friend I care for you...alot".anyways ...back to work :-)

Things are going pretty good. With the job at GOC (Geeks on Call) Duane has moved me in the back of the office. It's supposed to be a compliment, being that I don't need any supervision, BUT....I don't really have anyone besides Erin and James to talk to....kinda sucks, I miss just turning around and talking to Nichole or Bobby. I feel real good about working there though. I mean the company is expanding at an exponential rate !! Amanda just got her first ultrasound. The outline of the baby is really clear, it's about 2 1/2" long and you can see the arms and legs already developing. It's so neat. When you see a picture like that you realize how amazing life can be. It still blows me away that Amanda's' going to be a mom.I don't doubt she'll a real good mom....I mean she practically raised Brandon. I just hope she decides to stays her with everyone and not move out. I mean she everyone here for support.

A decision made
June 30th, 2004
Well, I've decided to stay here and work at Gees on Call instead of going up to Washington DC and work for the TSA. Several reasons why.
1. Cost of living is just too outrageous in DC. I'd be spending more up there for rent, food util...etc...than down here
2. $13 an hour up in DC is just bout the same as $9 down here
3. Standing on my knees for 8 hours at a time just doesn't sound very appealing
4. I'm not ready financially to move up in the DC area....even if I could move in with Lisa & Todd temporally, it just wouldn't be right for me to do that to her.
5. Last year TSA laid off over 2300 screeners....I realize not EVERY job is secure these days.....but I see that Geeks is expanding rapidly (hiring 4 dispatchers in the past 2 1/2 months, Bryan making Asst Operations Manager in 2 years), while the TSA seems to be cutting back. (RIF ?).
There's the potential of me making Asst Dispatch Manager at Geeks in 2 years. Hey there are a couple of bonuses, next to the kids, the beach and a pool! Lately I've been feeling very claustrophobic in the apt...and it really has nothing to do with anyone...it's just getting way to cramped in here. I find myself just going outside to escape the "close quarters" feeling. And at the same time I've been felling really lonely. I just want to be with someone...to hug or have a fun time with, to be able to laugh with.
Me and Amanda went to the Lonestar concert over at the Little Creek Amphib Base. We had a blast and Lonestar played all there great songs. We met a couple in thier 20's, Hazel & Phil, they were really cool & layed back....and they were having so much fun time with each other, joking, flirting, holding each other...and I think thats when I realized how lonely I was.....I was watching them & I don't think I've felt that way or had fun like that in a long time. We all went out at a sports bar, Amanda & Hazel sung a few songs of Karaoke. By the time we left, Amanda had gotten trashed with the shots of "Jeagermeister". She was pretty fun on the way home !....I just wish Amanda could find another way of having fun besides how she goes about it.
