well so far work has been fun i really like the people i am working with and the atmosphere of borders and everything that goes with it.. I am still learning the ropes and getting an understanding of what i will be doing and such but it is a lot more relaxed and easier to work.
 Let me see what else have I been upto been spending time with a really nice young woman but i think that things started going a bit to fast to quickly but we are still good friends and such. So my new schedule of work will be wednesday through saturday 7 am to 11am which isn't bad at all and this will be the first time i will ever work "black friday" after spending thanksgiving with my family in boston will be comin back here getting a few hours of sleep then heading to work but it is a good time. This year I have a lot to be thankful for.. I have wonderful family and great friends who without i would be very lost. I have my health and my happiness which comes and goes like most happiness but over all I am in good spirits.

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.

Soo as we finished up week # 4 and start towards the home stretch, I am amazed at how fast this experience has gone.  I have waited over 3 years for this experience and to be on the fields working and learning and gaining experience that hopefully I will be able to use in order to become a better umpire, then I was before I came here.  Also getting to know and meet the instructors has been amazing. To personally get to talk with and get to know this guys that I have watched for years on tv and to just see them and talk with them has been a great learning experience.  As the guys have hammered into us, "Don't leave this experience with any regrets." I am definitely not going to do that. Even with my knee injury, I never stopped I kept fighting and learning and busting my ass to get back on the field, and I can tell everyone that I will not have any regrets when I come home, I will have left everything out on the field and will have made each and everyone of you that has...

When I think of who I am or look at myself what do I see...I see a man who every day wakes up hoping that that today will be better then last. I see someone who has been through soo much pain and heart ache that I wonder How I keep staying soo postive I see A fighter someone who will will continue each and every day to try and make myself a better person I see someone who still has soo much potential that I have yet to reach. I see someone who is a friend, brother, son, Why is it that when I look at myself I think that I am a failure??? why is it that I see someone who no matter what I do I am never satisfied or I think that I am not living upto all this potential I am scared of possibly never reaching my full potential. I am scared that I will always feel like I have underachieved I am scared I will not be the person that people hope I will be.I think that the lyrics to the Weepies song " Can't Go Back Now" fits what I am feeling "Yesturday when you were young eve...
