LONG ROAD HOME

well folks its me ,the highwayman again. i guess as most of you now know ,i have been trying to finally get my life back in order.
i guess through alot of self searching, and guidance from my peeps. i have learned that the road home is long ,it does take time to get there. its funny i spent the better part of 20 years or so screwing myself into the ground. the lost jobs , the lost relationships. i cant really even say i have done much good. thanks to -k teacher-noah hardstep-sunflowergrandma -slickman-zman-shantyman .i have finally started down the long road home .i guess what im getting at is the love and support of those around us. its funny im 44 and i finally am getting a glimpse of what it means to be a responsible mature adult. i realized sometime back that being that drifting rodeo cowboy type ,well is no life . even this week i got stupid i was ready to walk away from the k teacher. i will admit i saw that k teacher is a responsible loving mature adult, thats what i guess triggered me to grow up . sometimes it takes alot to grow and realize our faults, well hehe it took me 20 years go figure. im fortunate though ,these last few months some great opportunities have come my way . i have to really say THANK YOU to my peeps for standing behind me. its truly amazing the human spirit . its funny how instead of running from someone we give them our love and support . well that lucky person was me ,i was very lost and hurting ,then finally alot of love came into my life. so as i now move on i am gonna settle down stop running the highways ,and yes spend time with my peeps most of all learn to love again -grow again -and learn to be a responsible adult
well happy campers ,im glad this blog is here it has helped tremendously so in closing

I LOVE YOU GUYS EACH AND EVERY ONE FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART

LESSONS LEARNED

well happy campers its highway guest blogging one last time. today i wanna just talk about lessons we learn in life, one in particular is how we need to wisely pick and choose our battles. i have a habit of running off at the mouth and not thinking, hence i then end up having to get myself out of trouble. funny this little character defect has gotten to where i have lost jobs, family ,freinds. as i reflect on theses things i also learned that it puts a large strain on my marriage. im fortunate i have an angel for a wife.how she puts up with my childish immature behaivor ,well i will never know .i guess what im getting at is that its best to ,pick your battles wisely and not be so quick to open your mouth . its sad though im 44 years old and finally getting this point.
now i realize what the wise and knowing old timers try to teach me in the past. well campers im gonna mosey on out its time to hit the dusty trail see you all soon

Taken!




There's a small pet store several towns away that in addition to selling puppies & kittens also sells exotic animals as well. This place has been around for more than 25 years. A few years ago they had a horrible fire on a Friday night ... the fire fighters were still there the following Saturday morning.... so many animals were lost to smoke inhalation. The place was closed for several months, then reopened across the street in a smaller store front. I can remember taking my pre-schoolers there on a field trip... the guys who worked there were really nice to the kids & even let them touch a tarantula!

Yesterday there was an article in the local newspaper about this pet store. It seems that over the weekend someone had broken into the store and stolen a puppy & a python.... being a kindergarten teacher my mind just kept thinking: things that begin with the letter "P".... those PILFERING PUNKS ..... PRANKSTERS or PERPETRATORS?
