more tidbits

Well Work is going as well as can be expected I have I think finally figured out the best way to count down money after talking with one of my supervisors who gave me some pointers and some hints on how do it it seems to have worked which is reducing the amount of time that I have to spend inside the sometimes very crowded countdown room so from spending 30 minutes I have been able the past few times to count down my drawer in less than 15 minutes which is making me less stressed, my supervisors less aggrivated waiting for me to countdown.
   SO okay other than work nothing much has been going on been watchin the olympics and two nights ago I think was one of the most exciting events I have ever seen on tv.. the 4x100 individual mens relay had the closest finish of any race it was incredibly insane the US was a few arm lengths away at the beginning of the final push and then at the final 15 meeters the US just flew past the french and won by .8 one hundreths of a second.. it was crazy.
  Umm my visit with my sister was really good went out to lunch and talked and it was really nice to see her ( I avoided the family ritual torture of Scrabble) It isnt like i dont like spending time with my family but when it comes to scrabble i would rather avoid personally embarassing myself with my lack of vocabulary and spelling ability. 
 Well I have continued going to the health club and have lost about 17 pounds so I have since moving back home lost bout 20 pounds so that is very good with my semi annual diabetic checkup coming in a week. .
 thats all for now

Soo today was a very light day. Had no control games or innings, but did have some time out on the drill field to get back into the habit of doing routine plays to get back into the swing of full umpiring.  Sadly I also started to realize how cutthroat this business can be.  Soo due to my injuries I haven't fully been at full health, as well as my other physical issues, have made my career has an umpire not the easiest of things to do.  I usually often in pain from my legs to my back and I do my best to push through it to continue to work my game, and due to the pain I may not look at athletic or graceful as other guys out there on the field, but I do my best.    One of the guys that I have gotten to know here at school, told me that sadly there have been a few guys that have snickered and made fun of me behind my back. He told me, not to worry about that, that the situation had been taken care of and that I should just focus on my game. To hear that a guy t...

What a LIFE

So let me think I haven't updated this since late november and quite a lot has happened.. I got myself a new kitten after the death of my 17 year old one and she is quite a handful but worth every second that I am with her.. her name is mitzvah or mitzy ( it means blessing in hebrew) but pretty much after bringing her home as part of my family my cat of 9 years quickly became sick and on december 6 after already been brought to the vet and told that he was just very sick and given a shot and to give him time to heal and recover I had to take him to an emergency vet. Sadly he didn't make it and died in my arms * the third cat in the past 4 months to die in my arms) SO yeah that was quite a shock..  So beside dealing with a lot of the pain and hurt from that I have been turning most of my attention towards work. I have worked at borders for just over a month and I love it! I LOVE the people the atmosphere everything.. and I don't really mind the hours I have had to wake up at...

A New Year, A New Me?

So with it now being 2021, My hope is that things will start to get better, ( like most everyone else). I have continued to struggle with some of the same issues, that I had in previous years, mostly my health (physical, mental/emotional being the main two.  A lot of the health issues are due to my diabetes, which this September will be 21 years that I was diagnosed.  It has been a roller coaster over these past two decades, but I am always doing my best to maintain as good “control” as I can. However, it continues to be a frustrating situation, especially when there is so much disconnect between doctor’s offices, pharmacies, and of course the biggest brick wall ever, the Insurance Company.   While I was living back in Vermont, I was truly lucky to have some of the best health care that was available to me at the time.  However, since moving to Florida, eight years ago this July, I have found that its a constant battle to be able to not only get my insulin covered, b...
