Scared, hell yes!
Today, I have to go work in the Trim at Queensgate, where I run locomotives with remote control boxes. Not that I like the job. It is in the Trim and I can't take much more of that. The constant freakout when ever a tank car rolls by or I have to even walk by one. It is disheartening to know that I have to work in a place where I am completely terrified of my surroundings.
I have worked in some really scary places. A foundry where I poured steel with my bare hands. I have worked on nuclear reactors on submarines. Been inside a massive (and I mean really friggin' big) crane working on the cables as the crane is moving. Those are the ones I can talk about. There are more I can't which were even scarier. I was not even afraid of those things because I took precautions to make sure I was working safe. Sure, I could have died at any moment doing any of those jobs. The part that is pathetic is that I am now absolutly freaked out anytime get net a railroad tank car. It just makes me shake.
I have dreams about leaking acid cars which are so bad I wake up in a sweat and can't go back to sleep till the next day (maybe). This is one of those scary-ass things taht no one talks about with anyone. I think that I would appear weak and fragile if that happened. But, it has literally screwed up my life. I can't talk about it any more now. I have to go to work.

The Last Post
This will be the last public post I will make on this blog. No one else in my family wants to do anything with it and since all I ever hear about posts is complaints, I am deleting it.
Maybe in a few years (after the kids grow up and move out) I will restart it (just for me). Otherwise, it is a rather large waste of my time (which could be devoted to other more important things).
This will all disappear in around 24 hours from the initial posting.
Please, have a better day tomorrow.

One of the only videos I have seen online which I have actually been impressed with.
I can't say anything more about this except.... "Enjoy!" I normally think YouTube and all the silly items there and everywhere else on the web are just trifles you can either watch and waste your time, or watch it and then put it out of your mind as drivel. This one I actually liked (enough to post it here. Go figure.
Bathtub IV from Keith Loutit on Vimeo.
If you want to look at the extreme amount of detail, you have to watch it in HD. Believe me, it is worth the time. But... You have to click on the Bathtub IV link and go there to see it in HD.

Cold again!
Why does it have to get so darn cold around here again? It was almost 70 degrees two weeks ago and now it is getting down to the single digits again. My lungs can't take this much longer. Or, at least I can't keep working out it these kinds of temperatures. The pain of breathing is pretty severe.
The people I have been working with think I am pulling their leg when I say it hurts to breath. The only problem is, it does hurt to breath when the temps get down below freezing. Especially on the right side where most of the damage happened at work.
My wish is that there would be some type of way to meter the amount of pain associated with this. Everyone looks at me when I discuss this. Considering I never really talk about what I am going through, it kind of sounds like I am just complaining about nothing. If they only knew.

Not a happy way to wake up!
Some people wake up with a beautiful woman staring into their eyes.
I get this.
I have to rotate this picture, but not today.

Another Sunday afternoon
I was at work since 0620 this morning. It was a cold day and pretty gloomy. I left my cell phone at home (not that it matters, you can't have a cell at work anymore) so I could not get ahold of anyone at lunchtime.
I was not the happies person when I returned home. Except for the Roomba running around the kitchen, nothing else was done. No one went to church, no one did the dirty dishes, no one moved the wet laundry (I washed early this morning) from the washer into the dryer, and no one picked up the pile of dirty laundry which was in the middle of the floor of the bathroom.
If I have to go to work and do all the cleaning, why do I need anyone else around here?
(That is a rhetorical question)

Lunch?
We all stopped at Bob Evans for a lunch kinda thingy. It was OK. I didn't even order anything and had to eat half of Maryann's and half of Bridget's so I was still full.
The bill was $47.81 and the waitress was nice and good at what she was doing. She seemed to be someone that just started because she treated us like we were sitting in her kitchen at home and the like (If you know what I mean).
There was only one fight. William decided to be snotty towards Maryann and the eventual food fight with biscuits flying happened as usual. Not much else because everyone else was pretty hungry. Once again, an eventful morning.

A new year requires changes.
As of today, I am going to try my best to cover what is going on in my life and the whole family. It probably will not be pretty, but it will sure be interesting.
If anyone has any special requests, please email me or post a comment. I will respond.
My aim is to get all five of us to put in entries. That is like pulling teeth for the most part. To get anyone else to take time from either their video games or DVDs will be an effort in futility, but I will still try.
I hope everyone has a good year coming up and I will do my best to do the same.
